Assignment 2: Formal Outline
Due Week 4 and worth 150 points
The purpose of the Formal Outline is for students to organize
their research and show the topical areas that they will cover
throughout the Research Project. By breaking down the
literature into various sections, topics, sub-topics, and details,
students can divide large amounts of data into smaller, more
orderly sections. The Formal Outline helps students organize
their thoughts, stay on topic, and follow a logical order. It also
provides students with the opportunity to show a progression of
thought and direction, and can highlight specific areas of the
Research Project that may need more or less attention.
The following article is helpful in structuring the paper:
