1. How might you identify the ideas & themes in the article?
2. How might you unpack the text type conventions of the article and connect these to ideas/ themes developed by the author?
3. How might you unpack the visual/verbal and structural elements of the text more effectively?

Progress in comparison to September paper 1 practice: In terms of analysis, it improved from 2 to 3 but language dropped by 1 for this paper. Other than my analysis and language, it stayed the same for all other criteria.

Areas of improvements:

• further developing ideas
• connecting into bigger themes
• unpacking further and elaborating the analysis
• usage of tense, vocabulary, and literary terms
• visual element analysis
• Perhaps looking back into some of the slides and analytical terms for articles such as newspaper and media slide

Goals:

1. To develop and connect the text to bigger themes and idea
2. Creating a strong thesis statement
3. Unpacking structural elements (visual and elements)
4. Connecting with what the author is trying to tell
5. Organizing the essay more by using PEA structure
6. Providing more analysis and further unpacking
