Key Concepts
What is Outlining?
Outlining is a tool we use in the writing process to help organize our ideas,
visualize our paper's potential structure, and to further flesh out and develop
points. It allows the writer to understand how he or she will connect
information to support the thesis statement and the claims of the paper.
To outline, you must create a linear, organized plan for your paper that shows
the main ideas that you will discuss as well as their relationships within the
paper.
Organizing your idea in an outline

● Begin by answering the question that leads to your thesis statement.
● Use the two or three main ideas from this technique as your main
heading.

● Write subtopics for each main idea.
● Write the supporting details for each of the subtopics.
Use various outlines based on the structure you prefer

● Sentence outline – Using complete sentences as entries.
● Topic outline – Using words and phrases as entries.
● Paragraph outline – Using paragraphs as entries.
Guidelines in Writing an Outline:

● Place the title at the center above the outline.
● Every level of the outline must have at least two items (I and II, A and B,
1 and 2).
● Put a period after each numeral and letter.
● Indent each new level of the outline.
● All items of one kind (roman numerals, capital letters, Arabic numerals)
should line up with each other.
● Capitalize the first letter of each item.
● The terms Introduction, Body, and Conclusion do not have to be

included in the outline. They are not topics; they are merely
organizational units in the writer’s mind.
Basic outline form

I. MAIN IDEA
A. Subsidiary idea or supporting idea to I
B. Subsidiary idea or supporting idea to I
1. Subsidiary idea to B

REVIEWED BY:

2. Subsidiary idea to B
a. Subsidiary idea to 2
b. Subsidiary idea to 2
II. MAIN IDEA
A. Subsidiary or supporting idea to II
B. Subsidiary idea to II
C. Subsidiary idea to II
It is up to the writer to decide on how many main ideas and supporting ideas
adequately describe the subject. However, traditional form dictates that if
there is a I in the outline, there has to be a II; if there is an A, there has to be
a B; and so forth. AIN IDEA

Example of Topic Outline

Several aspects must be considered in writing a topic outline.
1. Recall that all headings and subheadings must be words or phrases, not
sentences.
2. Also, the wording within each division must be parallel.
3. Finally, as in any outline, remember that a division or subdivision cannot

be divided into one part; therefore, if there is an "A" there must be a "B," and if
there is a "1" there must be a "2."
