In Module 2: Week 2, you must develop a thesis statement and outline for the 1,000-1,200 word

proposal argument essay that you will write in Module 3: Week 3. This assignment will show

your understanding of the reading material covered so far in the course related to argument and

essay development. Putting in the time to do the groundwork in the thesis/outline assignment

will help you when you begin writing the actual essay in Module 3: Week 3. It is important to

review the sample student outline available in APA, MLA, and Turabian in chapter 13 to

understand the expectations of this assignment that will be somewhat different from the

expectations of the thesis/outline assignments the other essay assignments in this course.
