first reflextion

What information in this unit that you find interesting?

Firstly in this unit all information is interesting because this is the first time I’m learning how to think critically. On the article of ‘convicted killer back at work’ I need to think out of the box. Because we are provided with the article present a picture on a side, this article mentioned that the nurse Deborah Perry is a killer but her face totally contrast with what that her been pictured. This article is for the writer to help the nurse and the writer perspective is she looks this issue in a positive way and she tries to convince the readers that Deborah Parry was not guilty. And this article needs me to think whether Deborah is guilty or not.

Were any concepts/tasks/terminology difficult to understand?

In the topic stories and fact (Martin, J R) we are introduced to know to distinguish what that essay are for instance is it factual or not. Can be trust or it just plagiarize from other. Every topic has difference elaboration on how to understand and differentiate the every type of essays. For example, the swimming club rules (Fowler, Roger and Kress) educate people how to understand whether there is command or reminder. Some of the words are strictly need to beware to avoid from misunderstanding.

Compare the ’convicted killer’ with the way you approached it in the portfolio. Comment on any differences between the two readings?

The article convicted killer is a direct story of a nurse who was convicted killing her own colleague but in the portfolio we need to criticize all the detail and critically give our own opinion toward the article. The differences that been point out is how to write properly because every writing that we produce should consider on every aspect to prevent from any misinterpretation. Furthermore, the reading usage of language and examples manage to make people easy to understand. And this is the lesson that I might be using on my future essays.
