Essay Topics

Essay TopicsOut of curiosity, I decided to check out my college professors' thoughts on the many subjects for students to write on in their Pioneers Essay Topics guide. Since I am a professor of English and literature myself, I was pretty curious about the essays my fellow professors have written. So here are some examples from some of my peers.A Eulogy for a Famous Artist: This was a great topic for the eulogy. This one writer did not like it when he would read other eulogies because he felt the subject of the poem was to self-praise, and he was not comfortable with it. But it was very interesting to see the different techniques this person used to begin his eulogy. He actually started his poem by saying he had a vision and then told the audience that he hoped they would relate to it, and then he ended the eulogy by saying he felt truly honored. Then he finished with: 'I hope that your loved one will listen and honor the vision that inspired me.' So really, this was the best answer in all the three parts.A Dead Story From The Bible: The topic here is not a very popular one, but it was interesting to see the methods of some teachers as they looked over this essay topics. One taught the 'How To Do It' lesson by writing an outline of the steps to make the poem, and then he wrote a concluding note about why he felt it was so good. Another teacher actually wrote a character description poem about the story and how it could be performed at a graduation party.A New Language: This one was a bit more difficult than the others, because the teacher had to be able to provide examples, and needed to know what kind of sentence structure would work for that. The key to this topic was making the sentences sound like English. So this is an example of both 'Practice Makes Perfect.' There were times when the teacher could not put together any examples for the lesson, so he just said: 'That is a very good point, but what are you going to practice? Because if you practice one part of the language, you are not going to learn it well.'Here are a few more examples from the essay topics. One uses an essay about observing the various sizes of trees, another explains in three lines what it takes to get rid of a mole, and a third takes the reader to a new place that he visited in his childhood. In all cases, students were encouraged to ask questions and to submit the essay as a word document for feedback.So, that is the list of topics for the Pioneers Essay Topics I used. You can use whatever topics you like.Finally, a word of caution for the Pioneers Essay Topics. I recommend looking over the topic with a fine-toothed comb and asking any questions that you may have before you start writing. The goal here is not to try to write your thesis, but to make sure that you do not jump from one topic to the next without fully understanding what is being discussed. If you do not fully understand the first thing you read, then you can not write a cohesive essay.As always, a final word of warning: The Pioneers Essay Topics can be your guide for writing an excellent essay, but they should not be the sole guide. You need to keep an eye on your tone and the way you phrase things. If you use too many descriptions, without providing any examples, you will sound like a student writing an autobiography and won't be likely to win any awards. Use your voice to help you write your essay, not to win the Pulitzer Prize.
