#13 Paper Logistics: Writing the paper

Before I get into reading ESLP Papers, I would quickly like to put a few words about what I would see some of the paper logistics to look like.

I would like my senior thesis to be as short as possible. There will be an executive summary no longer than one page to explain the dialogue and concluding remarks. Then the rest will be as short and to the point as possible. I am guessing it will not be able to be any shorter than 15-20 pages. I will start with a one-page contents/ outline, with the beginning of an executive summary (that will change a thousand times). That will be no longer than two pages. Then I will write 4 pages for the entire thesis. Then add in a couple more to make it 6. Then 10, then 15. Stay at 15 for a while, and then maybe start adding a little more, in a couple of locations, but not too many.

#33 Organization of the Paper

I believe that the paper should be organized and be approachable from many different perspectives and accessible to any particular topic of the entire thesis. For example each paragraph should have a title just as each section and part as seen in the SEC paper. Each sentence will also have a written description of the key words or concepts brought up in it. This will be described/ be available in the detailed outline. There will also be an Overall Outline, a General Outline, a Main outline etc. I don't know exactly what they will be called, but it will make since on some level. There will be at least three outlines, probably four. That is why it is so important to make sure the paper isn't too long, because it isn't easy to make all the outlines and descriptions of the paper, but this will make it accessible to any detail of the information in the thesis for people who aren't into reading the entire thing. There also needs to be a glossary with all the key concepts and ideas where a little more information could be available. Also the entire thesis should be organized and written to be available, accessible, and navigatable on the web as the primary version. There should be a downloadable version in word and PDF based on the web version. There should also be the ability to interact with the thesis and give real time comments on any segment or issue brought up in the thesis, or be able to fix minor errors (or at least propose them).

Key topics: Accessibility, outlines/title descriptions, glossary, web version as primary version of thesis, interactive component

Concepts vs. Principles and connection to Sustainability vs. Sustainable Living.

Concepts and Principles are two separate ideas, and of course there is definitions. It is very important to make a clear distinction between sustainability, and sustainable living. This in turn still isn't a very good example of what the focus of the thesis could be, but I will have to go more into that later. A principle of sustainability is a founding shift of understanding that underlies all aspects of internal education personal and or collective. Concepts of lessons and examples of how to apply this to your life in the form of action, and are much more tangible groupings showing how they work.

#16 The four categories of sustainability:

All ideas of sustainability fall into one of four categories: movement, practice, cosmology, and choice. Movement: environmental and natural resource conservation (involving: activists, politicians, the media, and economists). Practice: individual daily lives, state of mindfulness and consciousness, actively aware, role model for youth generations. Cosmology: earth was a sustainable place for billions of years; humans have set a break, and natural law dictates sustainability. Choice: there is no set of rules, you can start with yourself, this choice is the same freewill that has gotten us into trouble, but it is the same freewill that can bring us back again-Jay Chen, Tracy Da Lomba

I belive that the paper should be organized and be aproachable from many different perspectives and accessable to any particular topic of the entire thesis. For example each paragraph should have a title just as each section and part as seen in the SEC paper. Each sentice will also have a writen discription of the key words or concepts brought up in it.
