What is It
As a 21st century learners, the changing world and global trends may influence
or affect you as a person and as a citizen. Every day of your lives, you hear
information from different sources. These information help you to become
perceptive and widen your perspective about something and anything under the sun.
In some cases, you will be forced to make decisions or make a stand about an issue
or to judge the validity of the evidence you heard from an issue. All those things have
an implication in your daily life. It will either make or break you as a person.
For you to be ready during these circumstances, let’s hone your listening
prowess by being familiar with the following terms:
1. Factual vs. Literary text

Factual texts inform, instructor persuade the reader or listener by giving
facts or information. The reader or listener wants to know something about a
particular subject so they should give useful information and focus on facts.
Examples of factual texts are news reports, interviews, recipes, records of
history, and instructions. You often heard news reports over the radio, or television,
read them in the newspaper or hear what happened from reliable sources. While
reading or listening to a news report, you are already activating your knowledge about
the information.
Literary texts are pieces of writing that tell a story or entertain. They engage
the reader/listener to respond emotionally by using creative language to paint pictures
through words(imagery). They include nondramatic works with or without illustrations,
published or unpublished.
Examples of literary texts are fiction, nonfiction, manuscripts, poetry,
dissertations, theses, speeches, pamphlets, brochures, and advertisements
Characteristics of literary text include characters, setting,
plot(problem/solution), and sequence. These characteristics help the reader
understand who is in the story, where and when the story takes place, what happens
in the story, and how the events happen(www.pdesas.org)
2. Persuasive text vs. Discussion Text

Persuasive text/ writing offers the opportunity to convince the reader/
listener to adopt a particular viewpoint or to believe in what the writer is telling. It is
designed to prompt the reader or listener to take a certain action. It is very common
in ad campaigns wherein they are marketing/selling a certain product and they are
convincing you to buy their product. Ads can also be used in several situations as well
like reminders or election campaigns
Discussion text/ content also known as argumentative text/ content
presents an issue surrounding a particular topic--usually one that is debatable and
open to arguments. In here, the writer needs to discuss both sides of the issue to make
sure that you researched and gathered enough information about the topic.
To know if the information presented by the writer is valid or not, you need to
extract the supporting (pros) and opposing (cons) opinions about the issue. Many
writers use argumentative content to persuade the readers or listeners to agree to their
points of view. The information may influence you to believe certain ideas and push you
to take some form of action.

different pictures below. Tell if the illustration is factual or literary. (Write your
