Using Notes from Primary and Secondary
Sources

- An outline is a tool used in improving and organizing

use outlines when writing their papers to know which
topic to cover and in what order.
TYPES OF AN OUTLINE
1. Sentence Outline- It is a type of outline that presents the
thesis statement, major topics, subtopics, and supporting
details in sentence form. It allows you to include those
details in the sentences instead of having to create an
outline of many short phrases that goes on page after page.
Also, it follows a hierarchical structure composed of
sentences and headings around the subject of the speech or
essay.
These characters are used in this order in bullet formatting:
Roman Numerals, Capitalized Letters, Arabic Numerals,
Lowercase Letters
