Division Essays
1 Division separates items into categories. Division separates items into categories. Complex subjects are easier understood when broken down into smaller groups. A complicated discipline like medicine is divided into specialties -- hematology, psychiatry, and neurology. Scientists organize rocks by the way they were formed: sedimentary and volcanic.
1 Division separates items into categories. College students can be separated by major, birthplace, or gender. Pollution can be easier to analyze by dividing environmental hazards by type -- biological, chemical, radioactive -- or by source -- sewage, ground run-off, or automobile exhaust.
1 Division separates items into categories. In studying the homeless population, you might discover that the people you meet in shelters fall into one of three distinct groups -- alcoholics, mental patients, and battered women. To address the problems of the homeless, it s necessary to appreciate the needs of each group.
2 Your categories should be as distinct as possible. In writing a division essay, it is important to develop appropriate categories. In creating categories, remember that your goal is to make your subject easier to understand and work with.
3 Categories should be meaningful. One might write a meaningful essay about Korean presidents and divide them by their politics, their attitudes toward the reunification of the two Koreas, or their religious convictions. But dividing presidents by their blood types, their pets, or their nicknames serves little purpose.
3 Categories should be meaningful. Can you think of some topics that would be good for a division essay? Let s look at some examples together.

Classification Essays
1 Classification Essays Classification essays rank groups according to a common standard. Classification essays, like division essays, break a topic into subtopics -- with a difference. Instead of simply dividing a topic into groups, a classification essay rates or ranks the groups according to a common standard.
1 Classification Essays Classification essays rank groups according to a common standard. Homicide, for instance, is classified as first, second, and third degree murder according to circumstances and intent. Burns are classified as first, second, or third degree depending on tissue damage.
1 Classification Essays Classification essays rank groups according to a common standard. You will study classification in psychology, anatomy, biology, business, and economics. It is a convenient way to organize data and simplify complex decisions. Insurance companies base rates on codes, classifying businesses according to their chance of experiencing a loss. Stockbrokers classify investments from a low to a high risk.
1 Classification Essays Classification essays rank groups according to a common standard. The method of measurement must be clearly stated. Each category must be measured against the same standard: price, quality, durability, time, quantity, and so on. Don't mix standards. Keep categories uniform. If you are rating personal incomes or prices, maintain uniform increments -- 20,000-30,000; 30,000-40,000; etc.

2 An explanation of your role and purpose 1 Methods of classification EX The quality of airlines can be classified by their on-time record and their response to customer complaints. Talk shows can be classified by their choice of topics and the host's attitude.
2 An explanation of your role and purpose 1 Methods of classification To keep your ideas straight and develop a clear outline, use a chart to guide your first draft. Here is a great example.

Write a classification or division essay about a category of food or drink. After you decide on your topic, you will need to think of different types. Then write an essay with an introduction, body, and conclusion.
1 Paragraph writing People all over the world have been drinking beer for centuries, and it has had plenty of time to evolve into many different types. All of the various flavors, body, and colors of the many styles of beer generally fall under two classifications, either lager or ale. Together, these two classes of beer collectively make up thousands of different varieties of beer.
1 Paragraph writing The two different categories of beer differ in the type of yeast used to brew them and the temperature at which they are brewed. Beer that is classified as lager uses special yeast that ferments best at cooler temperatures. Beer classified as ale uses another type of yeast that ferments best at warmer temperatures. Both lagers and ales contain hops, malted barley, yeast and water.
1 Paragraph writing There are four types of beer that fall under the lager category: American style pale lager, pilsner, light lager and dark lager. Pale lager usually contains more carbonation than the other types of beer. It tends to be light in color as well as in body. The most popular brands of beer in the United States, such as Coors and Budweiser, are examples of a pale lager.
1 Paragraph writing Pilsner is another type of lager that is pale in color. However, pilsners tend to have more distinct flavors and are often more bitter than American style pale lager. In the U.S., light lager beer has less barley, which reduces the caloric content of the beer. Light beer also has a slightly lower alcohol concentration than regular beers.
1 Paragraph writing In Europe, a light lager is a beer that is light in color rather than calories. Dark lagers are made with roasted barley and hops, and therefore have richer flavor, a very dark color and a fullbodied taste.
1 Paragraph writing The main types of beer are referred to as ales include brown ale, porter and stout. Brown ale is usually red or copper colored rather than brown. It has a milder flavor than the other types of ale beer.
1 Paragraph writing Porters are darker and more full-bodied. Porters usually have a more noticeable barley flavor that is reminiscent of chocolate, along with a mild hop flavor. Stouts are the darkest type of beer, almost black in color. They are thick and taste strongly of barley and hops.
1 Paragraph writing Within these two broad categories, several thousand unique types of beer can be created through different combinations of ingredients and added flavors. Fruit, vegetables, spices and so on are added to both lagers and ales to create beer with flavors like cherry wheat and pumpkin spice, for example. The variety in these creative brews is enough to satisfy any drinker.
