1. Analyze parts of the learning activities throughout Module 1

Learning Activity 1

The three personal letters show some differences, yet they also share some similarities in terms of social function, text structure, and lexicon-grammatical feature.

In terms of social function, they are generally written to help people in building and maintaining personal relationship. But more than that, each sender has his/her own purposes. The first letter specifically sent to reconnect, ask and share news to an old friend who lives away. The second is sent to make a new friendship relation and the third is to respond the previous letter sent to her.

In terms of structure, each of them has greeting, body of the letter, and closing. It is just different in some detail part of each structure.

In terms of lexico-grammatical feature, all of them use simple present to tell personal news, past tenses to share past experiences. But they are different in some features. The first letter has the date written on top, using casual greeting ‘Dear Fatima’ and ‘Love’ in the closing part showing close relation. The second and the third letter has no date and the greeting is casual but not as intimate as the first letter.

Learning Activity 2

Both printed and spoken announcements have the same general purpose, it is to share information publicly about what has happened or will happen. The structure is not quite different, with the heading at the beginning and followed by some details of the information. The spoken announcement begins with greeting before coming to the point of announcement while the printed forms usually have title on top of the announcement. Besides, in spoken announcement, the introduction of the announcer is usually done at the beginning of the announcement while the printed form is usually at the end of the announcement. Spoken announcements also requires the speaker to pay attention to the pronunciation and intonation to make the information clear while the printed one is focusing on the punctuation marks and other requirements of a good writing.

Learning Activity 3

An analytical expository text should be well-planned and well-structured to be a good one. It is structured respectively from thesis to introduce the case and writer’s position, Arguments to support his position, and reiteration to strengthen the thesis. Through a good analytical exposition, the writers are able to persuade the reader that the case he is talking about is important by stating strong arguments to support his position. Arguments are well supported with clear explanations and evidences.

Learning Activity 4

Hortatory exposition text, which aims to persuade the readers about what they should do and should not be done, consists of thesis as the introduction of the idea/phenomenon that will be discussed. Then followed by an argument which contains the opinions to make the idea proposed by the writer trusted. And the last is recommendation which states the writer’s suggestion to do or not doing something regarding things have been discussed.

3. Share your opinion about the contribution of this particular module to improve your professional competencies.

The particular modul provides a lot of teaching and knowledge especially in understanding the types of text, structure, lexico gramatical in a text.

Of course it was very useful for me as a teacher who taught English as a foreign language. where the material is the basic material in understanding English which is very complex. especially, in the 21th century where a teacher is not only required to master the material taught but also to master technology as a supporter of effective learning.

Then, the particular module will be very useful for my students in terms of how to train their understanding of the function of the text and how to write good and correct texts based on the correct rules.
