What is Definition?

 

Ironically, the definition of the term “definition essay” is not very specific.  Definition essays are short pieces of writing on a particular topic.  However, not every essay on a topic can be properly labeled a definition essay.  Instead, a definition essay is an attempt to describe the topic thoroughly enough for the reader to understand it very well and might be compared to an encyclopedia entry for the topic.  Any of our example essays could provide a good start on a definition essay about the topic.  However, we have collected a sample of our best definition essays and included them below to help you explore the genre.

PBS and Tootling to Reduce Bullying of Students With Disabilities
Managing children's behavior is a common problem for educators (Anderson & Kincaid, 2005) particularly if there are some aggressive students in the class who intimidate or victimize others. The problem is aggravated when victims are individuals who are mentally or physically handicapped. The impact of bullying on the individual is never good in any situation, but when applied to targets with special challenges, ramifications can occur where reinforcing messages can impact the target's self-esteem and worsen the challenge, aside from reducing the individual's psychological ability to deal with his or her challenge (Weiten, 2010). The follwoign research proposal siggests 'tootling' directed to bullyign as a behavioral method for reducing bullying behavior. A method based on an ABAB scheme is proposed.
