Assignment: Research Project Outline
Overview
You are to complete a full sentence outline in preparation for the Research Project: Draft Assignment. The outline cannot be completed until your topic receives approval from the instructor. The outline must include a thesis statement, the research topic(s) being addressed, how much space will be allotted for each section of the paper, and a preliminary reference list of at least 10 sources (all of which must be less than 10 years old).
Instructions
For this assignment, you are to use the references from the Research Project: Annotated Bibliography Assignment. You are to use full sentences (one - two sentences). Please avoid copying and pasting everything that you are planning to include into the project paper in the outline.
The outline should be simple and readable to show each section of the paper and the topic to be covered. The following are things to consider with completing the outline:
What to consider in the Outline:
Question A. What is the topic?
Question B. Why is it significant?
Question C. What background material is relevant?
Question D. What is my thesis or purpose statement?
Question E. What organizational plan will best support my purpose?
Question F. How much space is estimated per section?
Also include the elements noted on the Research Project: Final Document Assignment Instructions.
Full Sentence Outline:
The full sentence outline format is essentially the same as the alphanumeric outline. The main difference (as the title suggests) is that full sentences are required at each level of the outline. This outline is most often used when preparing a traditional essay.
