REFLECTION/SUMMARY M6 LA1

In this activity, I have learned about report text.

I have learned how to analyze some report texts on jobs and construct report texts to do with
jobs and also learn the language to describe jobs and work places to help you construct the report
texts.

Report text on jobs is usually posted on job search websites. These texts are made available to
public to inform readers/viewers about the name of profession, the tasks they have to do to
perform the job, requirements or qualifications to fit the position, and the benefits people will
get if they choose career on a particular job.

The key features of report texts to do with jobs include

Social Function
to describe the way things are, with a reference to a range of natural, man-made, and social
phenomena in our environment.

Generic Structure
· General Classification: tells what the phenomenon under discussion is.
· Description: tells what the phenomenon under discussion is like in terms of:
Qualities
Habits or behaviors, if living; uses, if non-natural

Significant Lexico-grammatical Features

· Focus on generic participants
· Use of relational processes to state what is and that which it is
· Use of simple present tense (unless extinct)
· No temporal sequence
What I like most about this activity is classify general fact about jobs.
What I need to improve/learn more is comparing the text structure of report text, comparing
the lexico-grammatical features of report texts, and constructing some report texts related to
jobs.
