How to Use the Human Dimension as an Outline in an Essay
An effective or illuminating argument in the form of an essay requires a well-conceived structure that walks the reader through each key element effortlessly. Creating an outline is crucial to organizing concepts and effectively developing an argument. Using the human dimension as an outline form, a holistic approach to essay writing that treats the work and the subject with a humanistic approach, helps to produce an effective essay.

Introduce the topic and the specific areas that will be covered. Traditional outlines contain a thesis that will introduce the reader to three or four points that will be investigated. It may help to visualize the human form as an outline of the essay. The head, or introduction, contains the general areas of human dimension and experience that the essay will cover, such as cultural aspects, moral and ethical concerns and social considerations.

Expand upon the aspects of the topic brought out in the thesis argument. Organizations such as businesses, academic institutions, and the military have developed holistic methods of approaching a conflict. Cultural experience is an important aspect of human behavior and motivation. Different traditions, languages, and values play a key role in determining outcomes of a situation. Moral and ethical concerns may be categorized in an outline as a second key point, establishing the ways humans interact with a conflict from a right or wrong standpoint. Social considerations may represent the third key point in an outline, examining the ways in which societal constructs, institutions, and relationship interactions affect the outcomes of a situation.

Conclude the essay by re-establishing the thesis as a practical and illuminating product of the body of the essay. In the human form image, the conclusion is the feet of the essay, the conceptual actualizing of the established key points, creating an overall foundation for behavioral motivations. Using this outline form helps to establish a method of investigating a wide range of topics, including organizational and structural issues, political and historical topics and even scientific concepts.
