Hi, Rosalyn. I have completed my review of your Week 2: Outline. Please study the comments that I have inserted into your assignment; with these I share helpful resources and highlight portions of the document that demonstrate its strengths and weaknesses.  I have also highlighted areas of concern in my comments below.

Tips for Success: Preparing for the Week 3 Rough Draft

Focus - The focus of the outline is at times off-topic. Make sure that your rough draft addresses the purpose named in the research question.

Structure - Make sure to see my comments relating to your thesis statement. Also, make sure to use the assignment template and to review the model assignment. These documents will help you to better understand the requirements.

Development - Be aware of the word count requirement. Your submission with approximately 160 words falls short of the 500 word requirement. Make sure to include evidence from an outside source to support each claim.

Plagiarism - Make sure to follow the guidelines for including in-text citation. There are areas in your outline where you are technically plagiarizing because these important elements are missing.

Reference Page Citation  - Review the guidelines for reference page citation. The citations are missing required elements and format errors are present.

Again, the comments that I have inserted into your assignment will help you to better understand these closing comments. When I review your Week 3: Rough Draft, I will be looking closely to see that your work responds to your Week 2 feedback.  If you have any questions, please message. I am eager to help!

Nicole
