What is Process Essays (Examples)?

A process essay is fundamentally different from other types of academic writing assignments.  In fact, it is closer to technical writing than to other types of academic writing. That is because a process essay describes a process that leads to a specific outcome.  There are two approaches to the process essay.  The first approach is often referred to as a directional process essay and is the simpler of the two approaches; it describes the steps necessary to complete a task.  The second approach to the process essay does more than outline steps, it also analyzes or explains the steps involved in the process.  The wording of your assignment will be important when you are trying to determine which approach to take while writing your process essay.  

The introduction of your process essay needs to accomplish several things.  First, it needs to introduce the process you are going to describe, and give background information about that process, when such information is necessary.  Next, it needs to identify your audience.  Identifying your audience does not require actually saying the targeted audience for your essay, but, if your reader needs a certain educational, technical, or professional background to understand the essay, then the introduction provides a great opportunity for you to provide that material.

The body of the essay involves your actual descriptions of the process.  For simple directional process essays, the body of the essay involves a step-by-step description of each part of the process.  For analytical process essays, in addition to outlining the steps you might explain them to the reader or analyze whether the steps are necessary to the process and make the process more efficient, or should be eliminated or changed in order to maximize efficiency and performance.

Finally, the conclusion of your essay will reiterate what you hope to achieve with the process described in the essay.  If you have analyzed the process and found it lacking, the conclusion may also describe suggestions for further study or review.

Kozol's Shame of the Nation: School Segregation Analysis
Literature – The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling explores the systematic dismantling of desegregation achieved by Brown v. Board of Education and the civil rights movement. While individuals and institutions pay lip service to Thurgood Marshall's claim that separate-but-equal is impossible, they achieve very harmful segregation in the name of progressive school reform. This system stacks the deck against nonwhite children confined to segregated schools and robs them of the quality education and opportunities supposedly granted to all. Only a new civil rights movement, aided by state and federal legislation and courts, can effectively combat the concerted segregation now plaguing America's educational system. ?
