Last-minute tips

Wonderfulls,

your analysis is the key to success and it MUST be in the light of what the purposes are, who the audiences are and what the usual conventions of the form are and how that gets into the hands of the audiences (so how they are likely to react to it).

Remember to:

use x uses y to z in a clear point (except for the AS grouping task where you should just state the texts and grouping factor e.g. A,C and D use rhetorical questions)

select a concise quote that is worth analysing closely (or quotes - even several single-word or short-phrase quotes are good)

mine the quote by looking at the techniques used in the quote that create the effect you said it created in the point

make sure you refer to the context (APF, how the text is recieved, where in the text the quote comes - e.g. what was said earlier, after) in EVERY paragraph (systematically)

PLAN to talk about a range of frameworks and theories  by selecting interesting techniques that the writer/speaker uses that can link to those frameworks and theories using terminology

use at least 3 terms per paragraph

evaluate the relevance of theory

use tentative language

GOOD LUCK, you beautifulls! You'll be great!
