Guidelines

Thesis Outline: What do you WANT to write? What mode of address do you want to assume? How do you want your text to speak to the reader? (this dictates the form: essayistic, academic, narrative, non-linear, script; diary; field report) Be clear about HOW you want to tell your story. Key issues you want to explore (what research questions do these lead to?) Please think of only 3 key issues.
