information will be included in the introduction?
List
3-4 supporting topics that you think will be effective for your argument.

this topic? What keywords will you use for your research? Will you interview or

will each sub-topic be linked together so that your essay flows in a
direct and focused manner? Is a “straight-forward” essay format
appropriate, or should you break the content into sub-chapters?

and understanding of your main idea?
