Hey guys,

Lets say we get asked to write in another text form (speech etc.)- obviously you write in a form suitable to that. How then do you convey your analysis? You'd hardly stand in front of an audience and reference recurring motifs etc.

Thanks :)

Hide notes in your underwear and go to the bathroom.

Nah but seriously, just change pretty much everything you write to first person, instead of saying 'derp theme shows blah blah blah' say 'If you look at the quote here, it exemplifies..'


I really doubt they're going to do that. 3 essays here we come.

Example of technique and analysis + engaging the audience:

As you can see, Harwood's use of emotive language successfully engages a majority of us with the poem, I understand that most of us can now relate to what the text is attempting to say.

Also, I think they're going to stick to essays for all three.
