Measuring Student Knowledge and Skills
28 OECD 1999 5. Calls and advertisements are documents designed to invite the reader to do something, e.g. to buy goods or services, attend gatherings or meetings, elect a person to a public office, etc. The pur- pose of these documents is to persuade the reader. They offer something and request both attention and action. Advertisements, invitations, summonses, warnings and notices are exam- ples of this format. 6. Charts and graphs are iconic representations of data. They are used for the purposes of scientific argumentation, and also in journals and newspapers to display numerical and tabular public information in a visual format. 7. Diagrams often accompany technical descriptions (e.g. demonstrating parts of a household appli- ance), expository texts, and instructive texts (e.g. illustrating how to assemble a household appli- ance). It is often useful to distinguish procedural (how to) from process (how something works) diagrams. 8. Tables and matrices. Tables are row and column matrices. Typically, all the entries in each column and each row share properties, and thus the column and row labels are part of the information structure of the text. Common tables include timetables, spreadsheets, order forms, and indexes. 9. Lists are the most elementary non-continuous texts. They consist of a number of entries that share some property(ies), which may be used as a label or title for the list. Lists may have their entries ordered (e.g. the alphabetically arranged names of students in a class) or unordered (e.g. a list of goods to be bought in a shop). 10. Maps are non-continuous texts that indicate the geographical relationships between places. There is a variety of types of maps. Road maps mark the distances and routes between identified places. Thematic maps indicate the relationships between locations and social or physical features. Download 0.68 Mb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
