Content description
Analyse and compose different types of texts, considering issues such as coherence, cohesion, and the relationship between textual conventions and audiences and contexts
Elaborations
identifying how grammatical choices, words and images combine in a text to achieve particular intentions and effects (for example, using 나 instead of 저 in an advertisement to make the target audience identify with the social group that would use the goods being advertised)
exploring and identifying basic cohesive devices in texts such as:
consistent use of the informal polite-style ending –어/아요 throughout texts of multiple sentences
agreement of honorific elements such as particles, words and suffixes in a sentence (for example, 선생님께꽃을 드려요; 할머니께서 주무세요; 저에게 말씀해 주세요; 그분은 누구세요?) and throughout the text
use of conjunctive adverbs, for example, 그런데, 그래서, 그러면, 그렇지만, 하지만 and conjunctive suffixes (clausal connectives) such as –고, –어/아서, –(으)면
creating short texts, (print or digital), with a focus on textual coherence and cohesion
