MODULE 3: FUNDAMENTALS OF COMMUNICATION
PEDUC010: PURPOSIVE COMMUNICATION
Instructor: Eileen Baptista-Dupra, LPT

INTRODUCTION
Evaluating texts or images is essential because of the proliferation of information
resources and rapid .technological change. As you have noticed, you are always confronted
with a diverse wealth of information for personal, academic, or professional use that can be
accessed in multicultural settings. With the advent of a digital environment or the Internet, most
of the information is unfiltered making its authenticity, validity, and reliability questionable. The
abundance of information from various media, namely short message service, electronic mail, social
media, print and electronic journals, periodicals, and advertisements also poses a challenge for you
in terms of evaluating and understanding it fully.
Let us begin our session with a prayer, In the Name of Father, the Son, and the Holy
Spirit Amen “God says…..Trust me. I’ve stayed with you through every storm in your life,
I’ve given you all that you need, I have, and always will protect you, your family and love
ones. Things might be difficult for you now, just trust in My timing, a change in your
circumstances is coming. Trust Me and enjoy this new day. Amen
Today, you will learn about Evaluation of messages and/or images in multicultural contexts and

LET’S EXPLORE TOGETHER (Eliciting Prior Knowledge)!

Motivation: Interpret this image. What does it convey?

I can see in the image the different traffic signs of the road.
The image wants us to convey that for us to have a safe trip,
we must know how to look at the signs first. We must learn
these different signs before driving. These will help us to
know how to communicate with drivers for us to avoid
accidents. They will serve as our guide for us to know the
right way to do especially when we are driving through our
path of life.

Direction: Tick the column that best describes your ability to evaluate image. Answer this
section as objectively as possible. Bear in mind that there are no wrong answers. You can
base your answers to this self-audit task on your Warm-up performance.

EVALUATION OF MESSAGES AND/OR IMAGES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF TEXTS


REFLECTING DIFFERENT CULTURES
Critical Reading
As 0ne of the categories of reading skills along with rapid reading, previewing, , literal
reading and inferential reading, critical reading involves studying and evaluating the text closely in
terms of relevance, validity, and logic.
The goal of critical reading is to examine not only what message is conveyed but also how the
message is conveyed as well as its purpose, target audience, and other ways of presenting it.
Essentially, critical reading requires you to be an investigator and "break down" a text to
appreciate and understand it better.

Qualities of a Critical reader


A critical reader...
 annotates the text by writing or using sticky notes.
 determines and analyzes the organizational pattern (compare-contrast, cause-effect,
description, narration, definition, or persuasion) of the text.
 asks critical questions that promote analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of text.
 considers the cultural and historical background of the text or image.
 distinguishes facts from opinions.
 evaluates the author's credibility by checking on his/ her credentials or academic and
scholarly background.
 evaluates the source of the text and image.
 looks beyond the text .or ideas that are not explicitly stated.
 makes inferences about the text or image and the author's ideas, biases, claims, agenda, or
views.

Henry IV Part 1 Summary
While his son Price Hal spends time in the taverns, King Henry IV argues with his former ally Hotspur.
Angry, Hotspur gathers a rebellion, and Henry and Hal go to battle to stop him. Henry's army wins the
battle, while Hal redeems himself from his wild youth and kills Hotspur.

Act I
Following the events of Shakespeare's play, Richard II, Henry Bolingbroke has succeeded to the throne of
England as King Henry IV. During his ascension, he was partially implicated in the murder of his cousin,
Richard II, in prison. To atone for Richard's death, Henry IV resolves to lead a crusade to Jerusalem. But
his departure is prevented by news of disloyalty and civil unrest. His cousin, Edmund Mortimer, has been
captured by Owen Glyndwr, a Welsh rebel. There is also fighting in the north between the Earl of
Douglas and Harry Hotspur, the warlike son of one of Henry's former allies. King Henry regrets that his
own eldest son, Henry (known as Hal) spends most of his time in the taverns of London with vagabonds
and ne'er-do-wells. The King demands Hotspur's allegiance and help against the Welsh. But Hotspur feels
that the King has not been sufficiently grateful to Hotspur's family for helping him in the past. 

Act II
Meanwhile, Prince Hal, at the Boar's Head Tavern, jokes with his friend, the elderly and penniless Sir
John Falstaff. Falstaff seeks to get money (seemingly by any means possible) to pay for his drinking
habits. He plots to rob a group of travelers. Together with his friends Bardolph and Nym, Falstaff carries
out the robbery. At the same time, in disguise, Hal and his companion Points attack Falstaff and capture
the gold for themselves. Back at the tavern, they reveal to Falstaff that they wanted to trick him and were
the ones who robbed him. Hal is called back to court in the midst of civil war. Hal and Falstaff role play
the imminent conversation between the stern King Henry and wayward Hal. Hal's pointed comments
about his own troubled friends disconcert Falstaff. Hal protects Falstaff from the law and restores the
stolen money to its owners. 

Act III
The civil wars become more serious as Hotspur joins his father in making an alliance with the King's
other enemies. All of them are jealous of King Henry's growing power. Hotspur sets out to Shrewsbury to
meet his father's troops. 

Hal returns to his father to make peace with him, and the King gives him a command in the army setting
out to meet Hotspur. On the way, Hal encounters Falstaff with a few ragged men. Falstaff has enlisted
these soldiers by taking bribes rather than enrolling more able men.

Act IV

The King offers to pardon and free Hotspur if he will withdraw his opposition to the throne. The northern
troops have been unable to reach Hotspur and Worcester, one of Hotspur's fellow rebels. Hotspur is
advised by his ally, the Archbishop of York, not to fight. Worcester, Hotspur's ally, keeps the knowledge
of the King's offer of freedom from Hotspur, and the battle of Shrewsbury ensues.

Act V
Falstaff fears for his death in battle and wonders about the wisdom in pursuing honor in exchange only for
injury or death. Hal fights valiantly in the battle, saving his father from harm in combat with Douglas,
another rebel. He even kills Hotspur. Falstaff, having feigned death to avoid injury, claims he was
Hotspur's vanquisher. The King's forces win the day, and Worcester is condemned to death. Hal frees
Douglas, and Henry IV divides his forces to continue battling the rebellion. 

Source The main source of Henry IV about Shakespeare was from


Holinshead’s Chronicles. It was established last 25th of February 1598.
It has a summary that will help the readers to read it in just only 2
minutes.
Context The political context for many of Shakespeare's history plays was the
Wars of the Roses, a series of civil wars between the royal houses of
Lancaster and York waged in England from 1455 to 1485. Henry IV,
Part 1 takes place much earlier than the Wars of the Roses, it tells the
story of the founder of the Lancastrian line and therefore helps
establish the royal lineage of the Tudors. Pleasing the reigning
monarch was essential for any troupe of performers in Elizabethan
London. There are no clear records about the first performance
of Henry IV, Part 1. Because Shakespeare's theater company was
experiencing some financial troubles at the time, it is not even clear in
which theater it was performed first.
Contents One of the main themes in Henry IV is Hal's growth into a king,
including the contrasts he faces and overcomes. Rules and order
alongside power shape another fundamental theme. It feels that honor
has to do with glory on the battlefield and with defending one's reputation
and good name against any perceived insult. For the troubled and
contemplative King Henry IV, on the other hand, honor has to do with the
well-being of the nation and the legitimacy of its ruler. Henry IV Part 1 is
the only Shakespeare play that includes the word radish. the concept of
honor is never given a consistent definition in 1 Henry IV. It delivers
something unlike any other history play that's gone before it by
weaving together serious political matters with raucous comedic
moments. Henry describes the fame and fortune of young Hotspur (the
son of “my Lord Northumberland”), calling him “the theme of honor’s
tongue”; in comparison, he says, Prince Harry (“my young Harry”) has
been sullied by “riot and dishonor.” It lets the audience know that
Harry is generally considered a disappointment, and, by presenting
both Harry and Hotspur as potential son figures for Henry, it
inaugurates the motif of doubles in the play.

Audience Shakespeare expected his audience to be familiar with the characters
and events. Often the dialogue refers to the material of earlier plays
(in Henry IV the rebels are constantly harking back to the fact that
Henry "put down" Richard II) and sometimes situations that develop in
later plays are anticipated earlier.
Author The author of the context was William Shakespeare. He was an
English playwright, poet, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest
writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist. He is
often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply
"the Bard"). He wanted it to be remain as the favorite stage piece and
focus and to present action characterized by a series of climaxes prior
to the resolution. The major ideal of the context is fundamental and
often universal ideas explored in a literary work.
What is the message of the text?
The message of the text is all about the concept of honor and it was never given a consistent
definition in 1 Henry IV. The very multiplicity of views on honor that Shakespeare explores suggests that,
in the end, honor is merely a towering reflection of an individual’s personality and conscience. In other
words, honor seems to be defined less by an overarching set of guidelines and more by an individual’s
personal values and goals. All the major characters in the play are concerned with honor, but their
opinions about the subject illuminate more about them than they do about the concept of honor. T he
whole idea of honor is nothing but hot air and wasted effort that does no one any good.

Evaluating Images in multi-cultural context. Please submit a copy of the image. (refer to the
general guide questions of evaluating images)

Source The image I saw from google is all about multicultural people by Stacey
Fitzsimmons, Davina Vora, Lee Martin, Salma Raheem, Andre Pekerti,
and C. Lakshman. I found it by searching it through google. It is reliable
because it shows the differences in people and their culture as one.

Context The image shows that an individual people can be multicultural in three
different (albeit inter-related) ways: they can have deep knowledge of,
they can identify with, and they can have internalized more than one
culture. This article delves into those three aspects of being multicultural
and describes what benefits can accrue from each of them. You’ve heard
about multicultural societies and groups, but have you thought about
multicultural individuals and what they bring to organizations? Multicultural
individuals — such as Chinese- Canadians, Turkish-Germans, or Arab-
Americans — commonly think, perceive, behave, and respond to global
workplace issues in more complex ways than monocultural individuals.
Some multicultural individuals translate these differences into career
success.
Contents The image contains multicultural people. It is all about individuals who
has different cultures. The image wants us to convey that we can do it as
one even though we are different with each other. The element that
supports the image is its color because they came from different culture.
The image wants to evoke the feeling of elevating your self-confidence
that no matter what your color is, we can do it just by helping each other
to attain success.
Audience Other people see the image as smiling people with different colors. The
target audience are the people who has low self-esteem and afraid to keep
pace with successful people. The information provided to that gives me a
clue to the target audience is, as we can see the image is full of people
who are smiling, this image just wants to convey that we can be as one no
matter what your color is.

Author The image is made by Stacey Fitzsimmons, Davina Vora, Lee Martin,
Salma Raheem, Andre Pekerti, and C. Lakshman. These authors also
conducted a research about "Multiculturalism within individuals: A review,
critique, and agenda for future research," Journal of International
Business Studies, Palgrave Macmillan;Academy of International
Business, vol. 50(4), pages 499-524, June. The authors’ purpose are
persuasive and can be also informative because it encourage people to
boost their confidence and it also provides informations that talks about
multicultural people.
Visual I found the layout, design, and color by surfing through the internet.
They are used by making the image more vivid and nice to see.
Yes, it was helpful in framing the message of the image because
it emphasizes the color of each person in the image. In the
foreground we can see that there are people with different colors and the
background of it was a bright color that helps emphasize the foreground.

Technical The color and size of the image is amazing. The quality of the
image is nice because I can see it clearer than the other pictures I
saw. In my opinion, I think it is copyrighted because there are many
images that looks like that when I am looking for pictures that
shows multicultural image.

What is the message of the Image?


The image wants us to convey that no matter where you came from, you can always keep pace
with people that will help you grow. It wants us to boost our confidence and say to ourselves that “I can
do it”. It also shows unity in the picture because we can see that they are happily working to each other.
The image also showed smiling individuals that proofs that they can be as one. Just always remember that
success is not choosing people, so you can do it.
