Quiz 3.2 Outline FORMAT for JE 3
Method 2 – Point-by-Point Method
Instructions: Now that you have learned how to organize your writing, write an outline using the format below. This is the outline you will use in writing JE 4. Follow these instructions to submit your work:
1. On page 2 of this document, you have an outline format with text blocks you can populate with information. This information is the skeleton of your writing or of your OUTLINE. Be sure to use KEYWORDS and/or PHRASES. Remember that the purpose of an outline is to help you organize your material in a quick and efficient way before you spend time writing a document. The thesis statement is expected to be a complete sentence which includes the TOPIC, the CONTROLLING IDEA and the BRANCHES. The more material you include in your outline, the easier it will be for you to write your essay. You can make the text boxes bigger to include more text by clicking on the corner and dragging it down.
2. As soon as you complete all the areas that need to be populated with text, copy the outline as a Word document on to your computer memory. You do not need to include this page of instructions.
3. Go back to the quiz where you found this assignment and attach your OUTLINE. To do that, click on ATTACHMENTS. When the little ATTACHMENT window opens, look for the window that says BROWSE.
4. Look for the outline file that you just saved in your computer memory. By clicking on it, you will select it. When you will see your document in the BROWSE window, click on UPLOAD FILE and then click FINISHED.
5. Now your outline document is ready to be submitted from your drop box as an attachment.
6. Before you submit your outline, you will see a link for the RUBRIC which appears on this quiz’s drop box. Click on it to make sure you have covered all the aspects of your outline. This RUBRIC is the grading instrument that your professor will use to grade this quiz.
7. Finally, don’t forget to click SUBMIT. If you don’t, your work will not go through and you will not get a grade.
