Definition is an essential component of many kinds of writing. It is often necessary to define terms, components, or concepts as the basis for explaining something or conducting an argument.
Write an extended definition of a trend, concept, abstraction, phenomena, or institution. You may employ a variety of strategies in writing the definition:
Illustrations/Examples–show and analyze the meaning of the entire term
Photographs/Drawings/Diagrams/Maps: to show a graphic of the term
Comparison/Contrast/Division/Classification: to show the parts of the term
Narrative: to show an example of the term
Negation: to show what a term isn’t
