Discussion
Recognizing Implicit and Explicit
Explicit information is any idea that is stated. With explicit information, you see the text
explained! Since you are looking for explicit information in what is read, the explicit information
will be written in the text. There is no need to look for clues. Just read. If the information is
written it is explicit.
Implicit information is understood but it is not stated. To find implicit information in what is read,
you will have to think about what you read. Look for clues as you read. Implicit information is
not written.

All living things are made up of cells. Since humans are alive, we are also made of cells.
Cells make our body tissue. Tissue makes our body organs. Organs make our body systems.
Cells are the building blocks of our bodies.

Abstraction
How can we differ Explicit and Implicit Information?

Valuing
Summary/Generalization
Imply If a speaker or writer implies something, they are suggesting it in an indirect way rather
than making an explicit statement. As a reader or listener, you are left to draw your own
conclusions from what has been said or hinted.
Infer when someone infers something, they reach a conclusion or decide that something is true
on the basis of the evidence available. If they are listening to or reading another person’s words,
they come to a conclusion about what is meant even though the writer or speaker has not stated
this explicitly.
