As you know, an outline is the schematic plan for a project that lists in hierarchical form its component parts. For this outline, you should list as Roman numerals the major sections of the literature review as found in the UNC materials and in the samples you have read. (Note: These sections will vary based on the topic you have chosen and the types of issues involved.) Once you get to the four or more issues you plan to discuss, list in your outline the varying perspectives from the sources included.

This outline should take some time and effort to produce; it will provide the plan for your entire project and should include enough details so that I can evaluate your plan before you start writing. Partial statements and incomplete sentences are not enough. Hastily written outlines or outlines written at the last minute without much thought will not be enough. Complete sentences are required. 

If you need assistance with outlining, you might wish to review the information provided online by the Purdue OWL under "Developing an Outline." This resource includes sections on components of an outline, how to prepare an outline, and samples of outlines. I will use this website to evaluate your outline. 

The point value of the assignment (25) reflects its major importance in this project. Make sure to include full sentences. This should be an outline of your entire essay, including sources. You should include and cite all of the sources that will appear in the final draft of your literature review. 

BEFORE YOU SUBMIT: 

1. Ask yourself, "Does my outline discuss four issues related to the social sciences?"

2. Ask yourself, "Have I cited at least seven sources with in-text citations AND corresponding reference list citations?"

3. If you do not correctly cite at least seven sources, I will return your submission ungraded. It will earn an automatic zero.
