Learning Reflection

My opinion, this course was difficult to learn. I thought read for detailed information to be difficult. This course was helps me to more practices reading and writing skill. I studied construction from made exercise. A discourse approach in reading are practice found the topic, main idea, and details. And significance identify genre of text and discourse markers, cause/effect discourse markers.

Problem and Solution is a pattern of organization where information in a passage is expressed as a dilemma or concerning issue (a problem) and something that was, can be, or should be done to remedy this issue (solution or attempted solution). There are also a few signal words which may indicate that information in a passage is ordered in the problem and solution pattern of organization: propose, solution, answer, issue, problem, problematic, remedy, prevention, and fix.

Week 10 Cause & Effect

On Monday March 20, 2017

Today teacher came to class 7.25 am. First of all, she checked the list of name to know that who present, absent or late. After that she gave us a sheet it was about “Cause & Effect”

And then she let us did exercise because she had to attend the opening ceremony. The exercise was about read the text and answered that was cause or effect.

Cause and effect is a relationship between events or things, where one is the result of the other or others. This is a combination of action and reaction.
Words that signal causal relationships include: such as, because, so, consequently, therefore, thus, and since. To find an effect, readers ask, “What happened?” To find cause, readers ask “Why did this happen?” Informational articles are ideal selections for teaching cause/effect relationships because they provide explanations for readers that include reasons for various phenomenon.

I think Cause and Effect are easy, but the past is difficult. I practice read the text and try diagram. My attitude towards the lesson is easy.

Week 9 comparative & contrast(continued)

On Monday March 13, 201713.

First of all teacher let us checked the answer of homework in handout with friends. I studied unit :5 “Comparison and Contrast” I studied about “Hurricane Andrew and Hurricane Katrina” and “Men and Women: Do They Speak the Same Language?” I read text and analyse similarities and differences. The difference between “Hurricane Andrew and Hurricane Katrina”. Hurricane Andrew a category 5 hurricane its wind of 175 miles per hour. Storm surges nearly 17 feet. Estimated property damage was $25 billion and 26 people died. Hurricane Katrina a category 3 hurricane with wind of 120 miles per hour. A storm surges 12 feet. More than 1,800 people died and property damage was $81 billion. The similarities are caused suffering and devastation to the people. I thought this text was very easy.

Hurricane Andrew

Hurricane Katrina





I read text “Men and Women: Do They Speak the Same Language” and answer the questions.
The different personalities of men and women are native culture because they are raised to see the world in different ways, different life experiences, and different cultures. Men use language to show independence, status, and power such as "boss them around". Women use language to establish connection and intimacy such as "Let's go to the movie” Men and women have different conversational styles problems in communicating with other.

Today we had a midterm test. The test was easier than other test that teacher ever let us took. I can answer all of question and I felt proud.





Finally, I thought detail information this text was easy. But analyse similarities and differences and written a cohesive paragraph of comparison and contrast are more difficult. So, I practiced more read books, article, and write practice. My attitude towards the lesson was very difficult.
