Next Step: Outline
On Friday your outline is due. You should create a full sentence, alpha-numeric outline. (You should be very familiar with this since we last did an alpha-numeric outline in Decemeber.) A guide for this kind of outline can be found at the Purdue Online Writing Lab site.
Your outline should:
1. Have an MLA heading
2. Have a title--the same title as your paper (NOT a description of the assignment)
3. Be single spaced within major sections of the outline; double spaced between major sections.
4. Include textual evidence whenever possible. Cite this evidence by including the author's last name (or whatever comes first in the MLA citation) in a parenthetical note following the evidence.
5. Have an updated Works Cited attached at the back (you started one for class today).
6. Be typed and printed.
7. A hard copy of the outline is due in class on Friday, February 27th.
I'll be around Thursday before and after school to discuss these...
