#1: Why are we doing this? • Who here likes writing? • Who here is more science-minded than writing-minded?
How to (Literally) Write an Outline • Indent ideas that are related to one another • Physically, you can use whatever symbols you want • I, II, III • A, B, C • A, b, c • 1., 2., 3. • i, ii, iii • You can even use bullet points (like this slide does) • Doesn’t matter as long as it is consistent!!
What to Put Inside an Outline • Start with your major ideas • Fill in the gaps with smaller ideas • Even if you don’t have the ideas at the time, leave space for them • When you have a detailed outline, support those gaps with research
Stuck? • Find other articles on the subject and make that content into a (broad) outline • Then fill in the blanks of that outline with YOUR OWN INFORMATION • Wikipedia has a mini-outline at the beginning of every subject that can help you out with this
Your Outline for Your Research Paper • Will be due next week (10/13) and you should consider it homework every night until then • Must be THOROUGH • Not just, “1. Intro 2. Body 3. Closing” • Your outline should be so detailed that you should basically be able to write your paper by forming your bullet points into full sentences
Work Time! • Begin the THOROUGH outlines for your own research paper • Remember, you can take this paper wherever you want, but be sure to include… • Thesis • Causes • Symptoms • Treatments • Other things you might want to include… • Case studies? • History of the disease? • Why study it?
