1 VCE English Unit 4 – Creating and Presenting

2  A written Statement of Intention about form, purpose, language, audience and context should be 150 plus words.  “Use of appropriate metalanguage to present written explanations of personal authorial choices. Statement links own writing to the text.” (10 marks)

3  Has to be brilliant – with LOTS of insights about the language choices you have made. 6-10 examples discussed please.  Metalanguage  Beautifully written  Insightful and explanatory, especially of the context and how you formulated (came up with) your ideas and developed them into what they are in the written piece.

4  I used informal language like “G’day” as I think my character would have spoken like this.  I used an informal, colloquial type of speech for the main characters in my short story. Words and phrases such as, “G’day mate” and “What’s up?” not only help characterise them, they also help develop the reader’s understanding of their Australianness and their age range.

5  I have used lots of persuasive language techniques such as rhetorical questions and alliteration as this helps to persuade the reader.  In my use of persuasive language techniques, I have employed the use of rhetorical questioning, such as “Do we really care?”, in my speech to help position the reader to want to be on the side of the group who do care. I have also included alliteration in my article. One example of this is the heading, “ Is the battle over for brave Broadie boys?”, in which alliteration has been used to draw the reader's attention to the topic and pique his or her interest.

6  The links to Growing up Asian in Australia should be apparent throughout your Statement, however you should devote one paragraph to stating these links explicitly. This is the substantial paragraph where you deal with Context.  FLAP+ C  Discuss how you came up with your idea  How does what you have written link to Growing up Asian in Australia?  What can you say about how your piece links to:  the prompt  You  Other world  …in regards to the text  Really important to make sure this is a significant, well developed paragraph in your Statement.

7  Form – the type of writing, state why this serves your intention best.  Language – This is the longest paragraph and must discuss 6-10 of your language choices in detail with examples specifically discussed.  Audience – In this paragraph state who your audience is for this piece. The chosen audience dictates much of what your language choices are.  Purpose – Your purpose also dictates your language choices. Discuss what you wanted to get across. Also, some insight to whether you actually achieved this successfully may be useful, as the Statement is not only an analysis, but also a reflection.  C – see previous slide

8 Don’t forget: where appropriate make sure your written piece has a heading, or is set out correctly:  If it is a letter, make sure it looks like one.  If it is a speech, ensure it has a greeting at the start and really does address the audience throughout.  If you are writing a feature article you will think up a fantastic heading for it, and write that at the start of your written piece. …and so on… In other words, think about the conventions of the form you are using, and adopt them when writing your piece.
