Rephrase your thesis. "Illegal immigration does not have a..." It doesn't make sense right now.
ReplyDeleteSince we're writing a persuasive argument, you need to include an argument. What does the opposition say or feel about the topic? Why? This needs to be included somewhere in your outline.
Also, I doubt you're ending the paper with impacts, so be sure to include, in the outline, a proper place for the conclusion.
Thank you for the feedback. I will work on it.
ReplyDeleteit looks good, the only thing that i would say would be that on the first part "definition of an illegal immigrant" it seems like that would fit better in another part of the outline.
