I will be reviewing Olivia's Content Outline. She is completing a Video Essay on the captivity of orcas in California. The content outline simply maps out how the argument will be organized. I used some of the questions and considerations given on pages 70-73 in the Student's Guide to First -Year Writing.
This outline is very detailed and specific. She has her 3 main ideas and pieces of evidence for each one written underneath it. Her intro takes genre conventions into consideration, and her closing deals with the real world significance of her issue. I would say that she could take genre conventions into consideration for her conclusion as well as her intro. She has lots of specific evidence, but no hyperlinked sources. It might be helpful to come back to this after research is done and add specific sources to certain parts of the outline. This helps organize the amount of research acquired.
I admired how specific she was throughout her content outline. She shows exactly what she wants and in what order, but also why she wants it in that order and how she is going to make her audience care.
