what I have learned in unit 2...

In unit 2, I have learned about the role of perspective in determining a critical understanding of the text. Perspective is the stance does the writer take in the text. It was the further practice of skills for me to apply in critical literacy. in reading 2.2, it is about the topic’ Language, perspective, ideology’, written by Lee,D. the article explain how important language in writing. The way of language that we used can reveal our ideology or perspective.
in reading 2.3, the readers will know the writer’s values, attitudes, and perspective by the words that the writer use, sentence structure and other pattern of language. It is interesting in writing portfolio of ‘Battling the bullies’, in reading 2.1 compare with writing portfolio for reading 1.1 because I am already learned how to put the correct answers under the p-particular heading. Before this I am confused between the perspective and positioning, but now, after learned about it I know which one perspective and which is not. From the article ‘Battling the bullies’, the reader will know the writer perspective toward the topic base on the words that the writer used. in this units, it is more difficult words that I found. Such as, paradigmatic and syntagmatic. Paradigmatic means the relating of choice or pattern of words in sentence structure. While, syntagmatic is the relating of choice or pattern of sentence structure.
