I’ve chosen to use a reverse outline as my strategy for revision because I think I would benefit the most from it. After creating this outline, I started to see more potential in my paper because it is more organized. I was able to list out the main ideas for each paragraph and give them each a topic sentence. Initially, my paper was all over the place and the paragraphs had multiple ideas that may belong as a separate paragraph instead. I was able to utilize this strategy to give myself an idea of the structure of my paper and what else do I need in order to complete the paper. I had to cut some information even though I did not want to, but it was excessive to the overall message and claim of the paper. I have a better vision for my paper after this revision and feel more confident in reaching the final draft.

I definitely agree which how useful the reverse outline is. Most of the time we free write and don’t really pay attention to what we’re writing. Personally, this has backfired on me as well as my essay can be all over the place. Sometimes I’ll introduce an idea and I won’t really expand on it.
