GEO10 York University Niagara Fall Outline Please follow the instruction as mentioned in attached file. The work has to be similar to the sample given. Writing Milestone : Making an Outline
For this milestone, you will need to read your articles and create an outline from which you will
eventually write your paper. This will help you with one of the hardest parts of writing a paper –
the organization. To do this, I would set aside a section at the beginning and at the end of your
outline for the introduction and conclusion. Between these two sections, I would devote a
section or two to each of the main topics you have identified from your sources. Be sure that
your topics (the outline sections) follow in a logical order. For example, don’t describe what
hurricanes are and how they form in the middle of your paper after having talked about a specific
hurricane for several paragraphs. That is, try to keep the basic information toward the beginning.
Pay close attention to the following steps and requirements when constructing your outline.
1. Thoroughly read each article you have chosen and identify its main points. These will
serve as the topics in your outline (and therefore the paragraphs in your paper)
a. You may want to start with the governmental/educational/news sources and create
a framework for your outline from these “easier-to-understand” sources
b. Because parts of the peer-reviewed sources will be harder to fully understand, I
don’t expect you to use every piece of information in them. However, they will
provide you with pieces of information to “fill in” parts of your outline
2. You are required to keep track of where the information in your outline came from and
cite it in the outline. Believe me, it is much easier to do this now than trying to remember
where it came from later when you are writing your paper.
a. Look at the “Sample_Paper” document for correct in-text citations
3. Your final paper needs to be a synthesis of your 10 sources, so you must organize your
outline around main topics, not around each source
4. Use 1″ margins, 12 point Times New Roman font, single spacing
5. You must revise your reference list based on my comments and include the revised
reference list at the end of this outline (pasted into the same document)
6. Your outline must be at least 3 pages single-spaced. If it is shorter than this, you will
not have enough information to write a 5-page paper. This length does not count the
reference list. Remember, the more information you gather and organize now, the easier
it will be to write your paper later.
7. Look at the 3 examples of good outlines
