Outline

Compose an in-depth outline for your proposal argument paper. Be sure to review this weeks video and PowerPoint before constructing this outline. You will need to include a thesis statement in the form of a complex sentence, at least four topic sentences, at least four examples with in-text citations, and at least four wrap-up sentences. The thesis statement needs to be in the following format: To solve the issue of <_blank_>, people should (or could) <_blank_>. It should have an argumentative tone to it. For example: To solve the issue of rising student debt and limited access to higher education, colleges and universities should expand affordable learning options, increase institutional financial support, and improve academic advising, while also addressing concerns about academic quality and accountability. It will then need 4 topic sentences. 3 that support my thesis and 1 that is a counterargument: Topic Sentence 1 (Reason 1): One way higher education can address affordability is by expanding low-cost options such as open educational resources, online courses, and flexible degree pathways. Topic Sentence 2 (Reason 2): Another important solution is increasing institutional and government financial support, including scholarships, grants, and need-based aid, to reduce students long-term debt burdens. Topic Sentence 3 (Reason 3): Improving academic advising and student support services can help students stay on track, reduce time to graduation, and ultimately lower the overall cost of earning a degree. Topic Sentence 4 (Counterargument): Although some critics argue that expanding access and reducing costs may lower academic standards, evidence shows that quality can be maintained through strong curriculum design, faculty support, and accountability measures. You should include a Works Cited page. This outline should be 500 1,200 words with at least 4 sources. Sources from your annotated bibliography in week 2 can be used if these fit well with your thesis. Topics are shown below.
