About This Topic

  

A descriptive essay is an essay that describes something like a person, location, thing, event, or process.  Descriptive essays can be non-fiction, but they can also be fiction.  The goal is to allow the reader to visualize whatever is being described.  Good descriptive essays evoke all of the senses, so that the reader knows how what is being described looks, sounds, smells, tastes, and feels.

Annotated bibliography: problem identification and organizational context in research
This article is an expanded annotated bibliography notation of a study designed to track student's choices in the cafeteria. It hypothesized that the presence of unhealthy cafeteria foods reduces the chances that students will purchase healthy foods. The study was four weeks in duration and compared the offerings of three high schools in the same county. Foods in the study were divided into green, yellow, and red groups. Even though healthy foods predominated the percentage of food offerings, students still selected 'red' (high calorie, low-nutrition) foods at a greater percentage relative to the presence of red foods in the cafeteria.
