PRINCIPLES OF
OUTLINING
SENTENCE AND TOPIC OUTLINE
1.CONSISTENCY

You should follow the standard outlining


format. Main points are indicated by roman
numerals (I, II, III), subpoints are indicated
by capital letters (A, B, C), and sub-sub
points are indicated by Arabic numerals (1,
2, 3) . Further, divisions are indicated by
either lowercase letters (a, b, c) or
lowercase roman numerals (i, ii, iii).
Example
Topic: 3 Kinds of Water
I. Solid
A. Ice
1. Ice Cube
a. Half Cube
b. Full Cube
2. Nugget
B. Snow
C. Frost
D. Ice caps
E. Glacier
II. Liquid
III. Gas
2. UNITY

The principle of unity means that each letter or


number represents one idea. One concrete way to
help reduce the amount of ideas you include per
item is to limit each letter or number to one
complete sentence. If you find that one subpoint
has more than one idea, you can divide it into two
subpoints. Limiting each component of your
outline to one idea makes it easier to then plug
in supporting material and helps ensure that
your speech is coherent.
Example

Topic: 3 Kinds of Water

I. Solid I. Solid
A. Ice A. Artificial
1. Ice Cube 1. Ice cubes
a. Half Cube 2. Nugget
b. Full Cube B. Natural
2. Nugget 1. Snow
B. Snow 2. Frost
C. Frost 3. Ice Caps
D. Ice caps 4. Glacier
E. Glacier II. Liquid
II. Liquid III. Gas
III. Gas
3. COHERENCE
There should be a logical and natural flow of
ideas connecting the points together.

4. EMPHASIS
The material included in your outline should be
engaging and balance. As you place supporting
ideas in your outline, choose information that
will have the most impact on your audience.
Choose information that can relate to
