Methods of the Outline
There are a number of methods to write a
helpful outline for your essay. These are the most widely
used and easy to remember outline techniques: Mind-mapping,
traditional, and the box.
The mind-mapping format of the outline is
regarded to be the most adaptable. It can be easily changed
any time you want without having to redo the whole thing all
over again. You can just add or leave out some points you
think about as you create your essay. Creating a mind-map
outline is easy: you need to draw a circle placing your main
idea in the center of it. The branches that are going to be
placed on its sides are going to represent subtopics, which
however you need to classify according to their significance
for the paper.
Traditional format is the most common way of
sorting your ideas and it represented by enumerated list of
points. There are a couple of major divisions each of which
have a few subdivisions aimed at their specification.
The box method is not a very popular one
however it is a very convenient way of organizing your
writing. It helps to visually see how your topic will be
divided into several segments. Each box holds one or more
related ideas that are supporting every section. It is not
very detailed therefore if your subject matter requires more
specifications you should choose another outline method.
For instance if your topic is “Advantages and
Disadvantages of different forms of Government”, your box
will most likely look like this:
|
Forms of Government |
Description of each
form of Power |
Effect on Country’s
Economy |
|
Democratic
Socialist
Communist |
Description of each
form of rule, its characteristics |
Describing pros and
cons of every form of government |
