Comparison-Contrast Essay

Write a 500-750 word essay using comparison/contrast as a method of development.

Writing Approach

Determine exactly what you are going to compare and/or contrast. Be sure that your items have sufficient relationship to be compared/contrasted (you would not choose to compare/contrast a slug and a computer).

Decide whether you will use the point-by-point or block method of organization, and be consistent. Either method is acceptable.

Give some thought to the order of presentation of points being compared and contrasted. You might want to use order of importance, size, etc.
