Write a thesis statement. A thesis statement is a very short (1-2 sentences maximum) description of what your essay is about. It will summarise in a nutshell what you are arguing in your essay. For example: ‘This essay will argue that the best theory for explaining car theft is strain theory’.

Identify the main points that will comprise your argument. These should include what theories you will be discussing and how they relate to your chosen offence.All of your main points should be relevant to the thesis statement.

Use your main points to write a series of 6-8topic sentences. Topic sentences are statements of the main ideas that you intend to explain in your essay. They are the claims that support your argument, and usually are used as the opening sentence in each paragraph. The purpose of the remainder of the paragraph is to back up and elaborate upon the topic sentence.
Examples of topic sentences include:
‘Car theft results in significant costs to the Australian public’.
‘Certain communities are more vulnerable to car theft than others’.
‘Unemployment has a strong influence upon rates of car theft’.
‘Explaining car theft requires an understanding of structural theories of crime’.
‘Strain theory is better than other theories for a variety of reasons’.
