Bullet points are used for a list of points or to highlight key issues. They help organizing the text ideas by breaking up blocks of text into neat pieces. In this way the reader can manage the information in a better way, fully understanding it. You can use them when the order of the elements of the list is not very important.
In a document's layout you can use them to list your objectives or tasks, in this way you can have control on which ones are completed and wich ones are not. For example, I want to do a research on World War II, so to list my objectives I would use bullet points that help me organize my work.
· Origins or WWII
· Countries involved
· Consequences of the war
