The term classification and division is pretty self explanatory. It's the process of breaking something down into smaller sections, and further explaining each section. Many people aren't aware that they naturally do this throughout their lives. It takes place in school, when transitioning from sophomore junior, and senior. It happens with our friends, we have our close friends, school friends, work friends, and acquaintance.
The same basic concept applies when we are writing with this tool. We break down subjects into categories. We then go into further detail with those categories.It allows the audience to follow along better with the material, since the categories are usually ideas, phrases, or words that aren't very common knowledge. This is a very simple concept to pick up, but it can go a long way as far as getting the message across.
I really like the way you compare the process with something that goes on in peoples lives all the time. using that type of reference I believe connects with people making your writing more endearing. i think this post could easily be used as a short but concise tool when someone is struggling with any essay of this type or just the straight up definition. so in summation I believe you did an excellent job connecting with the audience which i assume is the college level writer at large.
