Although young children are not able to produce fully developed logical arguments, they develop a variety of methods to extend and elaborate their work by providing examples, offering reasons for their assertions, and explaining, cause and effect. These kinds of expository structures are steps on the road to argument. In grades K-5, the term “opinion” is used to refer to this developing form of argument. INFORMATIONAL/EXPLANATORY The submissions in this category should convey information accurately. This kind of writing serves one or more closely related purposes: to increase readers’ knowledge of a subject, to help readers better understand a procedure or process, or to provide readers with an enhanced comprehension of a concept. NARRATIVE WRITING The submissions in this category should convey experience, either real or imaginary, and uses time as its deep structure. It can be used for many purposes, such as to inform, instruct, persuade, or entertain.

  • Detritus and Literature
    145 DETRITUS AND LITERATURE Helmut Bonheim, University of Cologne, Germany Introduction 'Detritus' is a term which refers not only to rubbish or waste: it has a fur• ther and chequered history. 'Detritus' also suggests something manufac• tured which is thrown away. Like 'waste', 'detritus' may refer to anything marginal, dysfunctional or silly ('silly' both in the older meaning of 'use• less' and the present sense of 'foolish'). 'Detritus' is of course a rather posh word, the more usual terms, used as expletives, are 'rubbish' and 'junk'. Other terms are rather less polite, and may be used when one wants to sig• nal strong disagreement. 'Rubbish!' is also a one-word sentence: it says that an opinion is inappropriate or downright wrong. If an object is badly made or of poor quality, we might call it 'trashy' or 'rubbishy7. Both 'trash' and 'rubbish' in the sense of 'worthless stuff appeared in the English language early in the 17th century, whereas 'detritus' is a late 18th century coinage based on Latin or perhaps French; it refers to something rubbed off or left over and fit to be thrown away. The use of 'rubbish' as an introjection is even later, namely Victorian. In contemporary British English it is also used as a verb and means 'to criticize severely:' a critic may 'rubbish' an argu• ment. 'Rubbish', then, is a term that serves as a noun, a verb, an adjective and an expletive. Although it seems to be a colloquial rather than a literary word like 'detritus', it deserves attention because it also has poetic and so• cial functions.

  • The Poetry Handbook I Read / That John Donne Must Be Taken at Speed : / Which Is All Very Well / Were It Not for the Smell / of His Feet Catechising His Creed.)
    Introduction his book is for anyone who wants to read poetry with a better understanding of its craft and technique ; it is also a textbook T and crib for school and undergraduate students facing exams in practical criticism. Teaching the practical criticism of poetry at several universities, and talking to students about their previous teaching, has made me sharply aware of how little consensus there is about the subject. Some teachers do not distinguish practical critic- ism from critical theory, or regard it as a critical theory, to be taught alongside psychoanalytical, feminist, Marxist, and structuralist theor- ies ; others seem to do very little except invite discussion of ‘how it feels’ to read poem x. And as practical criticism (though not always called that) remains compulsory in most English Literature course- work and exams, at school and university, this is an unwelcome state of affairs. For students there are many consequences. Teachers at school and university may contradict one another, and too rarely put the problem of differing viewpoints and frameworks for analysis in perspective ; important aspects of the subject are omitted in the confusion, leaving otherwise more than competent students with little or no idea of what they are being asked to do. How can this be remedied without losing the richness and diversity of thought which, at its best, practical criticism can foster ? What are the basics ? How may they best be taught ? My own answer is that the basics are an understanding of and ability to judge the elements of a poet’s craft. Profoundly different as they are, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Pope, Dickinson, Eliot, Walcott, and Plath could readily converse about the techniques of which they are common masters ; few undergraduates I have encountered know much about metre beyond the terms ‘blank verse’ and ‘iambic pentameter’, much about form beyond ‘couplet’ and ‘sonnet’, or anything about rhyme more complicated than an assertion that two words do or don’t.

  • Cinquain Poem: a Stimulating Instructional Media in Teaching Writing
    Cinquain Poem: A Stimulating Instructional Media in Teaching Writing Muhammad Fadhli University of Bengkulu [email protected] Sufiyandi University of Bengkulu Abstract Writing, a skill that involved multiple facets of a language, is commonly considered to be the hardest skill to master. Using appropriate instructional media in teaching writing may make an enormous contribution to the achievement of students. This study explored the impact of cinquain poems as an instructional media on the ability of students to compose paragraphs by implementing a quasi- experimental research method. Sixty first semester students from English Education Study Program, Bengkulu University, chosen using total population sampling, were evenly divided into experimental and control groups. To assess their writing skills, the students were given a writing test as pre-test at the first meeting and a post-test at the sixteenth meeting. Inter-raters were used to eliminate bias in rating the work of students. The results of the paired sample t-test showed that implementing cinquain poems significantly improves the ability of students to compose paragraphs. In addition, independent sample t-test analysis also showed that the abilities of the students in paragraph writing were significantly higher than those who were not taught using cinquain poems. These findings indicate that it is beneficial to teach writing through cinquain poems to help students develop and organize their ideas, improve their vocabulary, and build an engaging learning atmosphere. Keywords: Cinquain poem, instructional media, writing skills Manuscript submitted: October4, 2020 Manuscript revised: November18, 2020 Accepted for publication: December 1, 2020 Introduction English is an international language since it has been largely spoken among foreign language speakers (Marzulina, Mukminin, Habibi, Asyrafi, Makmur, & Marzulina, 2018).
