Plan for Controlled Assessment

How I’m going to introduce the subject

In this assessment I would like to look at and discuss how texting and web based is creative

What the language devices we look at

language devices

speaking language

concepts

non linguistic

context

texting and web interaction is a creative form of communication because….

with texting you can use words that you wouldn’t normally use for writing such as lol and yolo. So texting is creative because you can make up your own language like slang

    I’m very pleased to see your plan, Levi.

    The structure of it is good – it’s a logical, clear sequence and demonstrates a good breadth of information.

    Don’t forget that every paragraph you write is about answering the propostion that spoken and text-based communication is creative – it’s very important that you keep coming back to that point and adding to it in every paragraph.

    The short effort at an introductory sentence at the end is fine, but I want to caution you against mentioning quotations on their own – pretty much every time you use an example, you need also to define what language device is being used and what effect it has, for example:

    The initialism yolo is a strong example of the creativity of text language (it stands for You Only Live Once) because it has become a humourous part of everyday language. It is an example of a text device that has made its way back into spoken language – and a significant reason for this is that it works as a spoken word, and sounds distinctive.

    Do you see what I mean?

    Have a practice of doing this kind of analysis with other examples from your transcripts.
