Unit 9 Task E Planning Evaluation (6 Marks) I believe that planning my website was essential. I used a number of formal and informal techniques. Both having advantages and disadvantages. In class, we started to use open mind map to analyse the project. A mind map is a diagrammatic representation of varied elements that relate to a particular subject. Mind maps are used for solving problems, for creating to-do-list for, promoting creative ideas, and for discussing different elements of the project planning stage. This made me more organised because I knew the things I would need to add. Moreover, using open minds meant that I could make use of colours, image, and symbols to organise information in a clear, easy to understand manner. This meant that it would look more appealing and stand out. Also, if I made an error and wrote the wrong information. I can easily change this by clicking on the text. It is less time consuming. Furthermore, I have learnt the drag and drop feature. Drag and drop is a pointing device gesture in which the user selects a virtual object by "grabbing" it and dragging it to a different location or on an another virtual object. This is a simple technique. However, I was a beginner to this software. Therefore, by learning the basic skills meant that I was able to learn additional skills, which are more advanced. The strengths of creating a mind map for this project. It is also easy to add ideas later, at any time and it helps you to focus on…

A central notion is 'stratification', such that language is analysed in terms of four strata: Context, Semantics, Lexico-Grammar and Phonology-Graphology. Context concerns the Field (what is going on), Tenor (the social roles and relationships between the participants), and the Mode (aspects of the channel of communication, e.g., monologic/dialogic, spoken/written, +/- visual-contact, etc.). Systemic semantics includes what is usually called 'pragmatics'. Semantics is divided into three…

1. Explain why it is important to engage infants in conversation-like turn-taking. • It is important to engage infants in conversation-like turn-taking because as infants interact with those around them, they begin to participate in dialogic turn taking and this contributes to children’s awareness of how language used for different purposes or intents in a specific contexts. This also establishes the patterns for future, more complex conversations and helps children develop the neural networks…

Short-Term Goal #4: The student will formulate simple sentences in writing using short stories to increase age-appropriate writing skills. Intervention Activities • Short-Term Goal #1: The therapist will utilize video clips of the student’s favorite television shows to elicit word definitions and semantic relationships. The vocabulary used in the videos will be targeted to engage the student in expanding his word knowledge. Items and characters seen in the videos will be used to help the…

word finding, grammatical tense, etc) for children with SLI. The current study seeks to extend previous research in a broader context and aims to address the question; does phonological awareness intervention improve expressive language deficits in children with specific language impairment (SLI) better than semantic based intervention? To answer this question, 75 children ranging in age from five to seven years of age will receive randomized type of intervention (phonological awareness of…

Intro: Almost every teenager goes through a phase of which they feel abandoned, dejected, and invisible. To me, this poem suggests the author may be writing about a teenage girl, although it could refer to either a girl or boy. In this poem, “I Am a Teenage Werewolf”, poet Jennifer Taken reveals the hidden depressive thoughts and feelings of many teenagers. Paragraph 1: Author, Jennifer Taken, compares a werewolf, vampire, and monster to a teenager who is depressed. Throughout this poem,…

APOCALYPTIC SYMBOL PROFILE Symbol: The Lion of Judah First occurrence in Scripture: Genesis 49:9 In Genesis 49, we have Jacob’s final words to his sons. In verse 9, as he turns his attention to Judah, we see Jacob refer to him as a young lion. In this passage we derive the term Lion of Judah, used to symbolize someone that will eventually grow to rule over the rest of the Family. There seems to be a drawing from some military imagery in the fact of stating Judah had conquered his prey and no…

Roethke’s “My Papa’s Waltz” is a poem that contradicts itself as a whole many times. When reading it, there are two contrasting ideas that can be visualized. He uses certain words that are playful while also using words that have a clearly negative connotation to tell this story between a father and son. Other times, there is ambiguity in the phrases he chooses. Even the rhythm of the poem can have different meanings to different people. It all depends on which words stand out to the reader.…

languages. Michel’s translation kept the references to the swastika more than the other translations, but it didn’t always achieve a fully satisfactory result. This translation shows a clear concern to reproduce in detail the linguistic hybridity and polysemy of Finnegans Wake, without simplifying the text or explaining what is not explained in the original. The examples presented here are just a small fraction of a larger work, which will feature many other comparisons between the original and…

the mouth to form spoken words. All languages have different sound systems, and babies need to learn to ‘tune in’ to the sounds of the language that they hear around them. Some children will have well developed communication and language skills but have difficulty using the correct speech sounds. Language is the structure in which words are used. The language system is made up of several components:  Grammar – how words can be combined to make sentences, and how words change to indicate things…
