INSTRUCTIONS: MATCH THE COLUMNS by Guillermina Ocampo 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Use of topic sentences, paragraphs, units, conventional rules of grammar, formal and precise vocabulary. Reading is possible at any time and any speed. The writer and the reader do not have contact in time and space. It should be clear because immediate feedback is not possible. There is no room for fillers, repetitions and redundancy. Never repeat anybody else’s ideas or words without acknowledgment. Writing needs to be TAUGHT and LEARNT. The reader can go over it as many times as wanted. The idea of an audience generates contact. Something cannot be changed once it is written.
