Module Overview

Hi there again! I see that you have finished the first module for Reading &

Writing. Give yourself a pat on the back, because you did a great job, and you

deserve a treat. This time, it’s time to embark on a new adventure: your second

module.

This module is all about Text and Text Connections. This module will teach

you the different strategies and techniques in reading and writing texts critically. This

module will help you sharpen your critical reading skills.

There are five parts of this module, one for every competency outlined by the

Department of Education for you to master:

 Identify claims explicitly or implicitly made in a written text;  Identify the context in which a text was developed  Explain critical reading as reasoning  Formulate evaluative statements about a text read; and  Determine textual evidence to validate assertions and counterclaims made about a text read. With that being said, we wish you all the best and take this opportunity to learn

more and BE MORE.

What I Know

Great job! Later we will see if your answers are correct by reading the rest of this module.

Critical reading enables you to distinguish the explicit and implicit information provided by the author. Explicit information is information that is clearly stated in the text. Implicit , on the other hand, are ideas suggested in the text but not directly stated. This is where the ability to make inferences based on clues within the text is applied.

Through proper identification of explicit and implicit information, the critical reader can properly evaluate the claim/s made by an author. Claims state the point or position of an author regarding a certain topic. The claim statement is further proven by supporting details from various resources and reliable evidence.

Tiongson (2016) gave the following characteristics of good claims:

  1. A claim should be argumentative and debatable. It is expected for a written text to yield objections and opposite perspectives to appear for readers of a text that supports a certain stand on a topic. Completely factual texts are not considered debatable.

Text and Context Connections:

Claims in a Written Text

What’s New

To properly evaluate the ideas you have gathered while reading, you must be able to know the different kinds of information, which are explicit information and implicit information. Two Kinds of Information:Explicit Information is the information stated in the text. Readers can see the piece of information stated in the given passage.  Implicit information is the information not directly presented in the text. As readers, we need to read between the lines to understand the details that the writer is trying to tell us.

Claims of Fact are often qualified by such terms as generally, probably, or as a rule. And, to verify whether these statements are claim of fact or not, ask these questions:

Is it debatable? Is it verifiable? Is it specific? Can it be solved objectively? Types of factual claims (generally "objective")

  1. Factual / historical
  2. Relational - causal connections
  3. Predictive

Proof requires: - sufficient and appropriate grounds - reliable authority - recent data - accurate, typical data - clearly defined terms - no loaded language - a clear distinction between fact and inference EXAMPLES OF CLAIMS OF FACT  The oldest known disease in the world is leprosy.  Generally, obesity causes health problems.  Neil Armstrong was the first man to step on the moon.  The first Mindanaoan President is Rodrigo Duterte.  The earth is warming rapidly.

Text and Context Connections:

Claim of Fact

What’s New

Claims of Fact are pieces of information which are grounded on reliable authority such as science or history.  Claims of Fact relate to statements that can be easily verified and not dependent on a person's preference. It also asserts that a condition has existed, is existing, or will exist and is based on facts or data. Facts that are universally accepted are not considered claim of fact but instead a statement of fact.

The Claim of Policy advocates a specific course of action. It asserts that specific policies should be instituted as solutions to problems. Claims of policy argue that certain conditions should exist. Almost always "should" or "ought to" or "must" are included in this claim. Claims of Policy are specific statements on procedures or laws that need to be modified based on certain issues or conditions. Most of the time, claims of policy ask for plans of action to solve current problems. Proof requires:  Making proposed action (clear), need (justification), plan (must be workable), benefit (advantages) consider opposition / counter arguments. Consider this statement, for example: To attract more non-traditional students, this college must review and revise its course offerings.

The given statement above is an example of a claim of policy. It calls on action for the college referred to, regarding its course offerings to arrive at a workable conclusion which is to attract more non-traditional students. The author may choose to elaborate on this course of action to prove that this claim can work for the college.

EXAMPLES OF CLAIMS OF POLICY  The mayor should suspend the classes today.  You must send your children to public schools.  The government should legalize medicinal marijuana.  The Boy Scouts should not have to include gay scout leaders.  Local Malls should not open during the general community quarantine.

Activity 2: Read and analyze the following essay, and copy and fill in the table with the claims that are in the essay.

EDUCATION IN THE NEW NORMAL Ching Jorge If last year’s enrollment figures are to be a basis, the Philippine education system will be expecting around 27 million students to enroll in the Basic Education System in the coming school year. With the early closure of the school year in March, the enhanced community quarantine in effect, and the still unclear future that the COVID-19 pandemic will bring, the Department of Education (DepEd) and our millions of learners are facing enormous challenges.

In a recent evaluation on ALS (Alternative Learning System) interventions done in the Mindanao region during the quarantine period, platforms such as ICT4ALS, FB Chat, Google Classroom, the Aral Muna app, and DepEd Commons emerged as the most common technological interventions used. Also popular are the use of radio- based intervention — partnerships with local radio stations to announce questions or lessons that can be replied to by phone. There are also the door-to-door delivery of worksheets, take-home learning activity sheets, and take-home portfolio completions. These modalities are being used and explored during the quarantine period and will serve as key learning points for implementation in the bigger education system.

While home school and online learning are among the proposed solutions, access to technology and the internet, especially in remote areas, remains a challenge. In the public education system, it is not uncommon for students to lack internet connection at home or be unable to afford to “load” their phones regularly. Some do not even have computers or phones at all. As this is a reality that many schools, students, and communities will face, the DepEd proposes a combination of different learning modalities and will be using the Blended Learning approach.

In-classroom study and individual study/online classroom work, or Blended Learning, will allow students to learn at their own pace under guided modules. The DepEd has launched an online study platform called DepEd Commons, accessible to both private and public schools, to help students continue their lessons. It has also developed an ALS platform in partnership with UNICEF called ICT4ALS, a portal of learning resources, activity sheets, and online tutorials for ALS teachers and learners.

However, the challenge of technology access still remains for public school students. Other factors such as home environment (conduciveness to learning), learner attitudes toward home learning, and technology competence can affect learner

What Is It? Activity

Assessment

 A claim is a statement that is not considered accepted by all. It may be unverified or controversial to a certain degree.  There are claims rooted in history or science ( claims of fact).  There are claims that demand action because the present conditions for certain policies are no longer effective ( claims of policy ).  There are claims that assert the morality of an idea based on certain standards or preferences ( claims of value).

After our lesson, let us now check what you have learned.

Instruction: Identify which type of claim the statement is making. Write your answers in your notebook.
