The speaking outline is a brief outline for the speaker's use alone and containing source citations and delivery prompts. The formal outline is a complete sentence outline written in sufficient detail that a person other than the speaker could understand it. The working outline is an informal, initial outline recording a speaker's process of narrowing, focusing, and balancing a topic.
