Each essay example features structured outlines, engaging hooks, and clear thesis statements to guide your writing. You’ll also discover tips on crafting strong introductions and conclusions, as well as suggestions for using primary sources to back up your information.

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.

Conflict Management and Negotiation, Case 8 Sick
Kelly, Mark and Suzanne – two Canadians and a British citizens, respectively – are working as Assistant Language Teachers (ALTs) within the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program (JET) in Soto, Japan. In an effort to improve the English education standards used in Japanese schools, the national government designed the JET program to facilitate the exchange of English teachers from international locales. Government agencies and other educational experts believed that the process of exchanging teachers would serve to further the growing commitment to internalization on the municipal level, emphasizing the value of English-language competency for Japanese citizens and government workers. In order to properly address the instance of workplace issues or complaints from its ALTs, the JET program allowed for a process of resolution mediated by the Conference of Local Authorities for International Relations (CLAIR). Although the CLAIR program was intended to be proactive in nature, its standards were only applicable if the host institution remained unable to resolve the conflict through independent means. Case study 8 thus examines the occurrence of several conflicts between Japanese authorities and its contingent of foreign workers teaching English as ALTs.
