Identify 2. the best organizational pattern. a. Chronological Organization Using chronological organization allows for a step-by-step tutorial that the writer may use to describe the process of properly registering for courses. b. Problem-Method-Solution Organization This method allows the writer to outline the problem, in this case the difficulty of registering for courses, outline the possible methods of fixing the problem, and the solution how the system should work after one of the methods is implemented. c. Spatial Organization Using spatial organization allows the writer to detail an object and pick the orientation of that description. For instance, one may choose to describe the dashboard from left to right or from top to bottom. d. Cause and Effect Organization This organization is debatable, depending on how one wishes to describe the price of gasoline. If they wish to discuss how the prices are outrageous and how they became so high, they might choose to use cause and effect. Why prices are so high and how they became that way are just a few of the many questions that could be used using cause and effect organization. e. General to Specific Organization Using general to specific organization allows the writer to discuss the advances made while also providing details behind the technological hurdles that are being cleared in manufacturing technology. f. More Important to Less Important Organization More important to less important organization would make it easy for one to describe both the major and minor reasons they chose their major. Thus, this pattern provides the most detail for what is being discussed, and the way in which it is being discussed. g. Classification and Partition Organization
Classification and partition would make it easy to describe the various decision-making entities within the student government organization separately, giving each a name and discussing how each part goes about its assigned job. h. Compare and Contrast Organization Compare and contrast organization allows the writer to detail the software manuals for each program and at the same time draw both positive and inverse relations between the two (discuss how they are similar and different from one another). i. Classification and Partition Organization This method would prove to be the most efficient when it comes to describing personal computers. Whether discussing the innards of one's own personal computer to comparing PCs across the board, classification and partition allows the writer to devise different categories of parts and components (or computers, if discussed on a larger scale) and describe each in depth. j. Problem-Method-Solution Organization This problem deals, inherently, with how one will go about making a change. Changes are typically when made there is a problem. This method is best suited for organizing discussions wherein something is being changed, and a problem fixed. The problem of weak ties between the college and businesses can be addressed, a method offered, and a final solution discussed. k. Compare and Contrast Organization Depending on how the writer wishes to discuss college courses, they could choose to use compare and contrast patterns to organize his or her thoughts. In this way, courses could be shown as both similar and different, across both schools and concentrations. l. More Important to Less Important Organization More important to less important organization would be very useful in describing security at airports. Over the past few years, security has increased at such locations, and using more important to less important patterns would allow a writer to show the major and minor changes that will impact a potential traveler. m. Spatial Organization
Spatial patterns, as aforementioned are very useful for describing objects such as buildings or rooms. In this case, spatial organization would allow the writer to describe the room from several frames of reference, such as from side to side and top to bottom. n. General to Specific Organization Because these changes are already described as being important, the next step in the discussion is detailing what the changes are. Using general to specific organization allows the writer to discuss the changes on the whole, as well as the details behind the changes. o. Spatial Organization In this case, the guitar could be described in several ways, but if a physical description is desired, using spatial organization will provide the best results. The guitar can be described from several frames of reference using this method of organization. p. Compare and Contrast Organization The correct pattern of organization dealing with this topic is debatable, depending on the point the writer wishes to make. In this case, because Co-op and internship opportunities are frequently used interchangeably, and because they are actually different, compare and contrast would be the best method of showing how they are similar and different. q. Compare and Contrast Organization Now that digital photography has been in the public eye for several years, people now want to know when it is most appropriate to use which method. Using compare and contrast, the writer could discuss how the two are similar and in what ways, good or bad, the two differ. r. Chronological Organization Because this topic is inherently based around step-by-step instruction, chronological organization should be used to arrange the discussion. The writer can detail how to prepare for an interview in a step-by-step fashion, which, in this case, is most appropriate.
