A outline. Gross. The idea of a
outline turns he heads of most and repulses most students. Many
students only do outlines when required for a grade. When in reality
the outline, even in its most rudimentary form, drastically increases
the quality of the paper. Using an outline can help eliminate
repetitive ideas, join similar ideas, and organize ideas into a form
most beneficial to both the reader and the writer. Joining both
outlines and paragraphs together can form an extremely powerful paper
in which the reader is persuaded to an idea, told a riveting story,
or educated on a subject using the two ideas together is remarkably
beneficial.
Paragraphs have formed a very
different role and style as we've all gone through school. They gone
from 4-5 sentences to 6-10 sentences and now enough sentences to be
move the paper in a forward direction. Forming ideas into paragraphs
allows for the information to be broken down into logical sections
and allows the reader to have a break to digest all of the
information presented to him or her. Usage of the paragraph can be
extremely powerful in persuading the reader as it can increase the
readability of the paper by following a map presented in the
introduction to the reader.
Haha!!! "Gross." I am loving the emotional responses to outlines. Especially since you all don't come to a consensus about their merit.
