Rhetorical functions for academic purposes

Detailed description of features/operation The Earth’s orbit around the Sun is an ellipse lying in the ecliptic plane, which means that it is not a perfect circle.

Detailed explanation of components/

properties of substance

Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon with the latter acting as a hardening agent. Because of its high tensile strength, steel is produced in the form of wire, tube, bar and sheet and used to manufacture domestic appliances, agricultural and industrial products.

 More passive structures

…, steel is produced in the form of wire, tube, bar and sheet and used to manufacture domestic appliances, agricultural and industrial products.

Conventional Literacy Practices New Literacy Practices Emphases on developing students’ ability

Decode, process and critically examine digital media or multimodal texts

Convey message through different forms (e.g. images, animation and sounds)

individually or in collaboration with others
