On your Extended Essay worksheet tab on ManageBac, you must document your action plan.
Why make an action plan?

Action plans help you set yourself deadlines for each step.
Action plans document these steps and deadlines to keep yourself accountable. As you complete each step, you will check off the “to do” item in ManageBac.
Action plans allow for clear communication with supervisors.
Action plans allow your supervisor to provide self-management feedback and advice.
What should be included in my action plan?

Tasks needing to be completed, e.g. outline section 2, write introduction and methodology sections, etc.

Is there any guidance on how to outline?
This short video lesson on how to score well on criterion A by writing an excellent EE introductions also demonstrates how to write a clear outline. You can model the body paragraph outline very similarly to how you set out the introduction outline, though obviously the content is different.
