I'm bad at organizing papers. How should I outline a argumentative research paper?
If it helps... its a college class, I'm doing it on sex education, and it has to be 6 pages.
How should I outline a argumentative research paper?
here's a simple outline.........
Working Title (*optional here. You may want to wait until after your first draft)
Introductory Paragraph
What do I need to say to set up my thesis?
Thesis Statement (usually including a mention of the main points to come) =
_________________________
_________________________
_________________________
Transition (you don't have to write these out now but you should know what they'd roughly be)
Reason #4 = _________________________
example + explication of how it supports topic sentence
Concluding sentence on how (all) the example(s) support thesis
Transition
Reason #3 = _________________________
example + explication of how it supports topic sentence
Concluding sentence on how (all) the example(s) support thesis
Transition
Reason #2 = _________________________
example + explication of how it supports topic sentence
Concluding sentence on how (all) the example(s) support thesis
Transition
Reason #1 = _________________________
example + explication of how it supports topic sentence
Concluding sentence on how (all) the example(s) support thesis
Transition
Concluding Paragraph
sum up what X number of reasons have illustrated re: thesis
some thoughts on the implications of what you've just said or shown
I hope that helps.....that's how I always write my papers...... it should work. Trust me, just knock it out!
Reply:Q. Tino has laid out a perfect shell for the outline.
Don’t forget to address rebuttal arguments as well. This will help with the 6 page minimum.
Reply:Ugh, I had to write one last semester in college and it had to be 7 pages. I did get an "A" on it though! I did mine over E-85 fuels. If you message me, I'll send you mine and you can use it as a guideline.
