Whether you're writing an essay on a complex subject or a simple topic, these examples will inspire titles, provide essay structure ideas, and offer guidance on delivering information clearly and concisely.

An informative essay is an essay that is written expressly for the purpose of giving the reader information about a topic.  Also known as expository or informational essays, informative essays are intended to be free from bias.  In contrast to persuasive or argumentative essays, where the writer is trying to convince the reader to adopt an opinion or perspective on the topic, in an informative essay the writer’s only goal is to make sure that the reader finishes the essay better-informed about a topic than when he or she began reading the essay.

The key to writing an informative essay is to know your topic.  You cannot teach the reader about a topic that you do not understand.  Therefore, subject selection plays a significant role in informative essay writing.  Ideally, you want to choose a topic that you already know well; when that is not an option, you want to choose a topic that you find interesting and that will be easy for you to research, so that you can teach your reader about the topic.

One of the drawbacks of informative essays is that they need to be free-from bias.  Writers often find themselves slipping into a persuasive-writing mode.  However, losing objectivity can really weaken your informative essay.  Before including information in your informative essay, you need to ask yourself if it is objectively verifiable. 

You probably have experience writing informative essays; most modern K-12 writing programs emphasize expository writing.  However, if you want to see how to elevate basic expository writing to college-level informative essays, our example essays are a great way to start.

Government Regulations and Their Impact on Hospice Care
This paper focuses on how government regulations impact hospice. The paper starts off with an introduction to the hospice system that was revived by a nurse, Cecily Saunders, who then went on to become a physician, establishing one of the first modern hospices. The concept of total pain is explained in some detail. The body of the paper then includes the studies that have been conducted on patients and caregivers in hospice systems as well as on people who died after they were diagnosed with terminal illness resulting in death in six months following the prognosis. The overall conclusion that can be drawn here is that while in Japan there is a marked need for improving the Day hospice system, the American hospice industry is acting as a mature competing industry, which can be detrimental to the quality of services being provided.

Information Security Management: Core Concepts and Career Prep
During the span of one's college career, a select number of courses become something more than a simple requirement to be satisfied to assure graduation; these are moments in a student's educational process which make the most lasting impacts. In my personal case, the lessons I have learned as part of my studies in ISSC680 will likely be remembered in those terms, as my eventual career will find me utilizing much of the foundational knowledge I gained in this course on a daily basis. As an aspiring information security officer, who hopes to apply the skills imparted throughout my time in ISSC680 during my professional career, I am sure that when I reflect on my college experience this class will stand out above the rest in terms of significance. The two textbooks which have provided detailed instruction on the field of information security, Information Security Fundamentals and Information Security: Design, Implementation, Measurement, and Compliance, have become essential resources both in and out of the classroom setting, as the wealth of experiential data contained within has enabled me to comprehend both the requirements of my future career, and the great responsibility my duties as an information security officer will entail. From the theoretical underpinnings of data protection and access control methods, to the moral and ethical ramifications of protecting a firm's invaluable data by any means necessary, the course material I have been exposed to during my time in ISSC680 ranks among the most influential of my college career.
