Outline: Research the Dallas College databases ONLY and build an Outline based on your choice of one of the 10 topics that have been approved by me. (Read my grading Comments on your topic choices.) Use Opposing Viewpoints, Points of View and SIRS in addition to eLibrary and Encyclopedia Britannica Academic.
You will again need to include the following:
-four-part Introduction/Opening (a statistic to grab attention, a connection to audience by asking a question, a thesis statement of the problem that exists and a credibility statement identifying all your research sources),
-Main points (three again, this time being called problem or need, solution or satisfaction and visualization aka outcomes both positive if we solve and negative if we do nothing),
-Conclusion (this time known as “Call/Plan of Action”),
-Transitions between points (“First, let’s discuss the problem, as identified in a newspaper or magazine source titled _______.”),
-Credibility (established in the opener as a list and maintained throughout the Outline and Speech with “According to…” and the source),
-Works Cited in alphabetical MLA or APA list.
These must be saved in one of the following formats: ,doc, .docx, .pdf or .odf. NO no .pages or gdocs (Google docs) will be accepted.
