Post #5 - Extended Definition Essay
An extended definition includes the basic parts of a formal definition:
However, it goes beyond that, adapting whatever methods of development (i.e. examples, description, comparison/contrast, process analysis, classification, analogy, negation) to best suit the term it defines.
· Write a 750(ish) word essay in which you give an extended definition of a thing, a concept, or a general phenomenon. (Visit the PowerPoint presentation on Extended Definition, under shared documents, to review)
· Please do not use the example from class, i.e. “What is Love?”
