Study Notes
Expository Text
- Explains, informs, and presents facts about specific topics
- Can be accompanied by visual cues
Visual-Verbal Relationship
- Dwyer (1988) described a symbiotic relationship
- Visual supports verbal information, and vice versa
Visual Elements
- Graphs, tables, maps, and illustrations used to improve comprehension
- Strengthen understanding of reading material
Graph Types
- Graph: Displays relationships between variable quantities (e.g., y-axis = number, x-axis = category)
- Bar Graph: Shows independent variables
- Line Graph: Shows how numbers change; continuous data
- Pictograph: Similar to bar graphs, but uses symbols/pictures
- Pie Graph/Chart: Displays data as percentages
- Table: Organised data in rows and columns arranged spatially
- Map: Shows spatial arrangement/distribution of collected data
- Captioned Graphics: Include titles, short explanations, and illustrations
- Flow Chart: Illustrates step-by-step actions
- Infographics: Visual representations of information to improve understanding
- Diagrams: Use drawings/images/sketches to visualize information (e.g., Venn diagrams to compare and contrast)
Fact vs. Opinion
- Fact: True, proven, and tested; has evidence
- Opinion: Biased, subjective, reflects personal feelings/beliefs, and lacks evidence
Opinion Marking Signals
- Personal Opinion: Uses "I" and "my"
- General Opinion: "Everyone's belief", "group opinion"
- Agreement: Same opinion (same side)
- Disagreement: Different opinions (opposite sides)
Communication
- Information exchanged between individuals or groups
- Involves face-to-face interaction or devices
Communication Process
- Sender encodes -> Medium -> Receiver decodes -> Feedback -> Repeat
Communication Modes
- Written and spoken
- Visual (still and moving images)
- Audio (sound, ambient, natural and unnatural/volume, tempo, pitch, rhythm)
Multimodal Texts
- Meaning expressed through a combination of visuals
- Includes live presentations, digital media (film, animation), and paper-based formats (infographics, posters)
