As you prepare for the Outline of your Final Paper, here are some things to keep in mind:
· Wherever you are in your writing process, it’s important to remember that you’re trying to show me what you’ve learned in the course
· Make observations and connections and integrate vocabulary and concepts we’re learning
· Think about the organization. Simply listing the elements in the assignment prompt is not an outline
· The thesis statement is the most important part of the outline HOW TO WRITE AN A+ THESIS STATEMENT
· I would like to see a full sentence outline. The more complete your work is now, the more helpful and substantive my feedback can be. I look forward to seeing how your work is developing!
· You should plan to spend about more time on this stage of the assignment (research and outline) than on the final stage of the assignment (rough draft and polish)
· UMGC’s WRITING CENTER can assist you if you get stuck or need some extra help
