      The Purpose of an Outline<\/h3>\n

      An outline provides a one-page snapshot view of the essay before you start writing. It helps to keep you on track.<\/p>\n

      Remember that you can depart from the outline as you draft and revise. The outline doesn\u2019t lock your content down. It is more like a planned route to a destination: you know your goal and roughly how you will get there in schematic or pictorial overview, but you are open to detours and unplanned stops along the way.<\/p>\n

      How to Write the Outline<\/h3>\n

      You already have most of the key ideas that will go into your outline:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • background to your main source,<\/li>\n
      • provisional thesis,<\/li>\n
      • basic content and pieces of textual evidence for your summary and response, and<\/li>\n
      • new questions to raise in your conclusion.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        You may not yet have identified the claims (key points) you want to make when critiquing your main source. The outline will help you to start that important process.<\/p>\n

        There are many ways to outline, ranging from a rough-and-ready list to a detailed, formal, alpha-numerical outline.<\/p>\n

        An outline works well when it helps you see the structural purpose of each section in the essay.<\/p>\n

        Keep these purposes in mind:<\/p>\n

        Introduction:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Provide background<\/li>\n
        • Introduce your main source<\/li>\n
        • State your thesis\u2014your overall evaluation of the main source<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Summary:<\/p>\n

            \n
          • Provide a neutral overview of your main source<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Response:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Critique the main source<\/li>\n
            • Support and develop the critique through reference to research sources<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Conclusion:<\/p>\n

                \n
              • Summarize your evaluation in new words<\/li>\n
              • Indicate possible new questions beyond the scope of your essay<\/li>\n
              • Provide a sense of closure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                Sample Outline – Critique of Colier\u2019s \u201cThe Power of Off\u201d<\/h3>\n

                \n

                INTRODUCTION<\/p>\n

                  \n
                • Hook or Inciting Idea: <\/span>Digital\/cyber world is a frontier<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Background Context: <\/span>Tech is changing the human condition, for better or worse<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Main Source–author, title, one-sentence summary: <\/span>Nancy Colier, \u201cThe Power of Off: Your Best Self in a Virtual World,\u201d argues for counter-push against influence of tech in our lives<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Provisional Thesis: <\/span>Colier\u2019s piece identifies a real problem–overuse of technology–but her argument is not as rigorous as others\u2019 in terms of the influence of technology on mental health and the need to mitigate its negative consequences.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  SUMMARY<\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • Statement of issue\/problem, thesis\/message, reasons\/narrative events: Issue: <\/span>Whether we are overloading on technology or not, what effect it has on our lives; Thesis: Technology has taken over our lives and we must control it more; Reasons: Tech is addictive; changing our relationship to self-hood and reality.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    RESPONSE<\/p>\n

                      \n
                    • 1–First claim critiquing the main source: <\/span>Lack of definitions<\/span>\n
                        \n
                      • Textual evidence from the main source: terms <\/span>\u201caddiction\u201d and \u201ctechnology\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
                      • Textual evidence from (one or more) research source(s): <\/span>Twenge (2017, para 11) specifies social media; Bragazzi & Del Puente (2014, p. 156), distinction between normal and addictive uses of tech, missed by Colier.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
                      • 2–Second claim critiquing the main source: <\/span>Lack of evidence in Colier to substantiate claim that digital tech is changing our relationship to life.<\/span>\n
                          \n
                        • Textual evidence from the main source: <\/span>para. 6, how we relate to life<\/span><\/li>\n
                        • Textual evidence from research source(s): <\/span>DiGiulio (2017, para. 11), mediation of screen; Twenge (para 4), correlation of increased phone to decreased healthy social behaviour<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
                        • 3–Third claim critiquing the main source: <\/span>Colier overgeneralizes the negative feedback loop where more dissatisfaction from social media use leads to more engagement with the platforms.<\/span>\n
                            \n
                          • Textual evidence from the main source: <\/span>para 6, 11<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Textual evidence from research source(s): <\/span>Wincent (2016) confirms addictive, habitual behaviour. Bragazzi & Del Puente (p. 157) incidence of nomophobia; Twenge (para 36) on neg impacts: but these commentators limit focus to younger generation and provide data.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                            CONCLUSION<\/p>\n

                              \n
                            • Restatement of the thesis in new words: <\/span>The core of Colier\u2019s argument appears to be true, but her development of the argument is flawed and not as compelling as it could be.<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • New question(s): <\/span>What are the implications of arguing an important thesis in a flawed manner? How fair is it to hold Colier to a certain level of evidence in an opinion piece? If she had qualified her statements, would that be enough?<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • Concluding statement: <\/span>Without quantifying the magnitude of the problem, her assertion that a wholescale re-evaluation of our interaction with technology, or that we are all addicted to our mobile phones has the ring of the boy who cried wolf\u2014 sounding the alarm without a strong sense of the underlying threat. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                              \n

                              The finished essay includes an introduction, a summary, a research-based response, a conclusion, and references.<\/span>
                              <\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

                              The <\/span>outline<\/strong> <\/span>you’re writing in this step helps you organize your ideas and plan your essay before drafting. The drafting itself will be much easier and more efficient as a result.<\/p>\n
