LESSON ONE: IDENTIFYING TYPES OF TEXTUAL AIDS

According to Winston Churchill,, “Difficulties mastered are opportunities won.” In your journey in your high school life, you
have encountered a lot of challenges that also gave you opportunities to improve yourself. Despite all the hardships may it be in academics
or not, an aid or assistance is significant to help you how to deal with the difficulties and increase your capabilities to further improve
yourself. Just like in reading, there are times you find it difficult to comprehend the text when there are unfamiliar words with the reading
selection and you need help in order to understand it. You can either consult a dictionary to look for their meaning or use context clues.

Textual Aids
Oftentimes we find it tedious to read very long literary pieces and even more difficult to comprehend if it is purely texts and
without illustrations. With the help of textual aids, words become more visible and easier to remember by the readers. Textual aids, also
called text features, are visual elements on a page such as titles, bold or italic prints, charts, diagrams, maps and tables, written
texts, prints and some other way of writing for an important word to stand out from the other. This will make it easy for readers
to memorize, remember, and learn important words more quickly and easily.

As textual aids are helpful in previewing the text, textual aids are mostly used in nonfiction text. Text aids focus the reader’s
attention on specific parts of the text, and help the reader identify important ideas in the reading. Text features in the form of pictures,
illustrations or graphs give the reader additional information to support what is found in the text.

Forms/ Examples of Textual Aids

1. Title– gives the gist of the story. It summarizes the main ideas of your study.

2. Graphic Organizer—a visual display that demonstrates relationships between facts, concepts or ideas. A graphic organizer guides
the learner’s thinking as they fill in and build upon a visual map or diagram.

3. Flow Chart- a graphical or symbolic representation of a process. Each step in the process is represented by a different symbol and
contains a short description of the process step. The flow chart symbols are linked together with arrows showing the process flow
direction.

4. Venn Diagram- is a diagram used to identify the similarities and differences between two or more concepts. It is represented by two
overlapping circles.

5. Cause and Effect Diagram- emphasizes the connection between the different concepts. This is called the most beneficial organizer.
Since it can be applied to all subject areas.

6. Concept Maps- are general organizer or textual aids that can show the central thought with its matching characteristics. This
kind of maps can also be used to show or rank the hierarchical relationships as the most significant concept or concepts should be
placed at the top.
7. Pie Graph- is a circular chart which is divided into slices or portions to illustrate proportion.
8. Line Graph- is a common type of chart which displays the information as a series of data points connected by line segments to show
trends.
9. Timelines- is a graphic representation of the passage of time.

**Teacher’s note: An additional learning material will be posted online, via Facebook group, for the visual examples of the
textual aids.)
