College students should outline. There, I said it. I know this isn’t a popular idea, believe me. The problem is that elementary and secondary teachers, bless their souls, have ruined this useful tool by forcing beginning writers to adhere to a formal outline structure that stifles creativity and ultimately negates the benefits of outlining.
Outlines are really just a way to organize our thoughts before we start trying to communicate on paper. It’s a way to get all of our ideas about a topic out of our head and onto paper. It’s a way to organize our thoughts so that we can maneuver them into a meaningful message to our reader. They are something that no one except the writer needs to “approve”…if it works for you, it is “correct.”
Outlines are not meant to be an exact blueprint for your essay. Outlines, like essays, should be living documents that change as your ideas on the topic develop and morph. This development and metamorphosis should not be seen as “failure,” but as a mature way of understanding how writing works. Writing isn’t a linear process, so then, how can outlining be? If the formal outline makes you cringe, consider using one or more of these ideas to formulate a style of outlining that will work for you.
Mind-mapping
Mind-mapping is no longer for 4^th-graders! Mind-mapping is a legit way to allow your creativity to flow while putting order to it all so that you can coherently communicate your ideas.I think more students would benefit from using this type of an organizational tool. It helps you see relationships between ideas/points/facts. It also helps you visualize which points are major and which are minor ones. In fact, there are now several free mind-mapping sites available to anyone with Internet access.
Informal Outlining
Who says you have to use Roman numerals to create a meaningful outline? Not me! I can do it on a napkin at my local café or on a Word doc using bullet points. This style of outlining includes writing sentences or phrases that encapsulate each point you wish to make about the topic and then listing supporting points under each. From there you can move the points around until you organize the essay in the way that will be most beneficial to your reader.
Zero Drafting
Sometimes you have so many seemingly-random ideas in your head revolving around your writing topic that you can’t even begin to put it all in any type of an order. That is when the zero draft can help! This type of draft, just like any outlining/prewriting, is for your eyes only. It’s not even a 1^st draft and no one else will ever know it existed, so there is no pressure. It can be imagined as rumination regurgitation. Everything you have thought about on the topic is just written down in no particular order. Then it is all there for you to go through later to decide what points are related to other ones and how they flow together. Color-coding is helpful in turning the zero draft into organized chaos.
Color-coding
You shouldn’t confuse this with the handouts you colored in kindergarten! Color-coding is a genuine way of organizing your thoughts into different categories so that you can create a plan for communicating your ideas. Use highlighters, colored pencils, crayons, gel pens, whatever. Allow your left and right brains to work together by incorporating this strategy in your outlining efforts.

Working a part-time job while in college can be a challenge. Students need work that allows them the flexibility necessary to study and attend classes, and although university jobs are available, there are only so many to go around. Micro-jobs are great options for students because they are usually totally flexible. Need to pad your bank account to get ready for a trip over spring break? Work more. Want to take off midterm week so that you have plenty of time to study? Schedule more work in the weeks before and after to make up that cash.
There are several good reasons to consider a micro-job while in college. First, as already mentioned, is the flexibility. Some jobs might require a minimum weekly time commitment, but most you can do when it is convenient for you. Another awesome benefit of micro-jobs is that you often get paid frequently. Many micro-job companies pay up to twice a week. It’s a great way to get pizza money fast. You can also gain some experience in your field of study. It may not be something that leads to a great resume stuffer, but it might help you gain some skills others don’t have at your level of education. Or it may help you decide if you really enjoy the actual work you are training for. Finally, depending on the skills you are using, you may end up landing a longer-term gig. There are entrepreneurs and small businesses out there using micro-job sites who are thrilled to find a solid employee who has the skills they need, so they hire them directly to do freelance work. There truly are micro-jobs out there for all types of interests and skills.
Of course, there are scams out there, so you must be diligent in reading reviews of the micro-job companies you are considering. Common sense is a must so that you don’t get taken. But there is money to be made. And since college students usually don’t need to earn a huge income, micro-jobs may give you cash plus the additional flexibility that can be hard to come by in a traditional job. Sound good, but not sure where to start? Here are some micro-jobs that you may not have even known existed!
Sell your skills—Can you set up a Wordpress theme with your eyes closed? Create awesome graphics or format Excel spread sheets? You can find all types of work using your skills, because not everyone has them. These types of jobs can allow for creativity too.
Mystery shop—For this job you will actually have to put on pants since you have to visit stores and restaurants, but it is worth it. You can get “free” meals and items, along with getting a check.
Sit on a mock jury—You may hope to never be called to attend jury duty, but this micro-job can be fun and educational. It may be of particular interest to law students.
Complete surveys—College students have opinions for sure. You can give yours and make cash.
Comment on websites and forums—This micro-job is great for those students who do this anyway.
Buy stuff—We all know we can sell stuff to make extra cash, but there are valid sites out there that give you points that you can trade in for cash or gift cards for buying the stuff you would buy anyway.
Reviewstuff—Many sites out there are looking for reviewers for all types of things, like websites, ads, music, apps, books and products. You can give your opinions and get paid for it.
