HHS paper

All submissions are via canvas in a WORD document format

For your next assignment I want you to create a detailed outline of your term paper. Following 

an outline format can help yo

u k

eep your thoughts organized and get your essay well 

underway. I cannot emphasize enough, that the more work and effort that you put into this 

assignment, the more feedback/comments you will receive.

While all people create outlines differently, I expec

t t

ime and thought to you into each of yours. I 

will be looking at your paper structure, the research you have done to support your paper thus 

far, and your overall grammar and structure. While some of you may not be as far as you would 

like to be in your 

pap

er, 

NOW is the time to get caught up. I can assure you that the deadline will

come sooner that you know it and it is very important for you all to stay on top of this.
