CRITICAL LITERACY READING 3.3 AND 3.4
Based on the presentation for reading 3.3, the presenters have classified text A in page 13 as a discussion which is a written genre typically used to present a reasoned account of both sides of an issue. There are two patterns to show how grammar positions the reader. There are negative pattern and positive pattern. Positive pattern countered non-risk behavior while both patterns associated with risk are always positive and negative attitude associated with non-risk taking. For the text B in page 14, the presenter called it as report which it is a standard general in the sciences and social sciences. It presents as fact and not really opens to questions and also informed the text participant or text user seems like unproblematic. The presenters stated that the qualities are abstract nouns which both abstract from and summarize information in the quotes in Text A. These are how it relates to Critical Literacy, positioning is how the writer gives role to the participants in the text. The linguistic is connected with language or the study of language.
According to the presentation 3.4, the presenters defined discourse as ways of speaking or writing which promote a particular view of world and how it should be and sexist discourse as the socialization of the natural category of sex as gender. They give examples on describing the different types of women. This relate to Critical Literacy is we need to become aware of how text position us and don’t be over persuaded by the writer.
