Name: Jack Ausien
Title: Content Outline
Activity: Outlining Suggestion
Explanation: In this activity I have to look at the "Content Outline" to see the level of detail and development.
How I helped: First, I told Jack to include a thesis or at least start thinking about one. I am under the impression that he is trying to write a standard college essay. I believe that the thesis is critical in this genre. Furthermore, it sets the central ideas for the rest of the essay.
The other thing I noted was the lack of a conclusion. It is planned, but for the most part it was not in the outline. The conclusion is just as important as the thesis in this genre.
What I admired: I mostly admired the large amount of sources that Jack had. It is interesting how he was able to cramp so many into an essay about himself. I am struggling to do that.
