RSW Q4
MODULE 1 – IDENTIFYING CONTEXT OF A TEXT DEVELOPMENT

ACTIVITY SHEET
Context is defined as the social, cultural, political, historical, and other related
circumstances that surround the text and form the terms from which it can be better
understood and evaluated through hypertext and intertext.
Intertextuality defines as comparing the meaning of a text with another text. It deals with
the influences between language, images, characters, themes, or subjects depending on
their similarities in language, genre, or discourse.
Hypertext is simply defined as a nonlinear way of presenting information. It associates

topics on a screen with related information, graphics, videos, and music where information
is not simply connected to the text. This information shows as links and is usually accessed
by clicking. The reader can find more information about a topic, which may have more links.
This opens the reader to a wider horizon of information, to a new direction.
ACTIVITY:
Compose a 100-200-word analysis/critique of any song that you like (in either OPM or
English), pointing out the intertextuality present in its lyrics/music video. This can be written
in your RSW notebook/journal, on a single sheet of paper, or submit it electronically in my
email [email protected] .

RSW Q4
MODULE 2 – EXPLAINING CRITICAL READING AS A FORM OF REASONING
ACTIVITY SHEET
Critical reading is engaging in analytic activity which involves the reader by asking
questions about the text and the author’s claim. Critical readers are doing the process of
evaluating, analyzing, and interpreting the assertion of the hidden meaning of the whole
text.
While reasoning as defined by Merriam Webster dictionary is an act of giving statements

for justification and explanation. It is the ability of someone to defend something by giving
out reasons.
Therefore, when reading critically, it is necessary to question the different arguments used
by the author, as any problem can weaken the authenticity of the conclusion.
Remember that Critical reading is not meant to criticize but to assess the validity of textual
evidence.

preference.
2. Formulating counterclaim

single sheet of paper, or submit it electronically in my email [email protected] .
