TOPIC: “ANALOGY”
OBJECTIVE: Supply words or expressions that complete the analogy.

What is Analogy
An analogy is the comparison through which the ideas or things are compared to each other.
Through Analogy, the things, which are different from each other, are compared. It aims to explain the
ideas or things by doing a comparison.
For examples:
 Finding a good man is like finding a needle in a haystack.
-As Dusty Springfield knows, finding a small needle in a pile of hay takes a long time, so the
task at hand is likely to be hard and tedious.

 My children are my plants. I must nurture them to grow strong.

-The analogy works because we think about how much effort and care we must put into plants in
order to make them grow. The speaker finds that children are similar in that they must be cared
for in order to grow as well.

 That movie was a roller coaster ride of emotions

-While you're not flying through the air, the twists, turns and surprises of a movie plot can leave
you feeling like you've been through quite an experience.

Let’s try!
Directions: Supply an appropriate words or expressions the following sentences to complete the
analogy. Choose your answer in the box.

Encyclopedia music
game box ox

1. He is as strong as an ______.
2. That ____ is as light as a feather.
3. Love is a _____.
 4. Mary’s voice is _____ to my ears.
5. My English teacher is a walking_______________.

Answers

1. He is as strong as an ox.
-The analogy compares the man’s strength to the strength of an animal, suggesting he is very strong.

2. That box is as light as a feather.

-This is common analogy. The weight of the box is being compared to the weight of a feather. Since a
feather is very light, the analogy suggests that the box is also very light.
3. Love is a game.
-Sometimes you win–sometimes you lose.
The analogy compares love to how a game works. The analogy suggests that love is chance, and
sometimes you find someone you love. Other times you do not or things do not work out with a person.
4. Mary’s voice is music to my ears.
-Music doesn’t really come out of Mary’s mouth when she talks! This metaphor emphasises the pleasant
sound of Mary’s voice – how listening to it is as nice as listening to music.
5. My English teacher is a walking Encyclopedia.
-Is there literally a book walking around the room? Probably not! This analogy is saying that the
English teacher has so much knowledge – it’s as if he or she’s an encyclopedia.

It’s your turn:

Directions: Supply an appropriate words or expressions to the following sentences to complete the analogy.
Choose your answer in the box.
rock horse

4. Sleeping on my bed is like floating on a ____.
5. His explanation was as clear as _______.

Ind general, Passive Voice is used when the subject of the sentence is unimportant, unknown, or
refers to a generalized subject. In the passive voice, the thing that receives the action of the verb comes
first, followed by the verb “to be” and the past participle of the main verb. If the actual “subject” of the
sentence is stated, it is called “the agent,” and it follows the word “by”.

TOPIC: “Dependent and Independent Clauses”

OBJECTIVE: Use dependent and independent clause in a sentence meaningfully.

Let’s think about it!

Fig. 1
Shows that the plant depends on the amount of sunlight to grow.
Clause
is a group of words that includes a subject and a verb to form a simple sentence or only part of a
sentence.
Two types of clause
 Independent clause
 Dependent clause

Independent clause
 is a group of words that can stand on its own as a sentence: it has a subject, a verb, and is a complete
thought.

PATTERN:

SUBJECT + VERB = COMPLETE THOUGHT
 Here are some examples:
1. He ran.
He – Subject
ran – Verb
2. Jim read a book.
Jim – Subject
read – Verb
Dependent clause
 is a group of words that also contains a subject and a verb, but it is not a complete thought.
 Subordinating conjunction used to introduce dependent clause.

PATTERN:
SUBORDINATE CONJUNCTION  + SUBJECT + VERB = INCOMPLETE THOUGHT.

Here are some examples:

1. Because my dog loves pizza crusts
Because – SC
Dog – Subject
Loves – Verb
2. Once the tree grew very tall.
Once – SC
tree – Subject
grew – Verb

Clause pattern:
INDEPENDENT CLAUSE + + DEPENDENT CLAUSE.
DEPENDENT CLAUSE + , + INDEPENDENT CLAUSE.

Here are some examples

1. As he ran, birds flew away from the tree.
2. Benjamin struggled with his homework because he missed several days of school.

Let’s try!
 Direction: Underline the independent clause and circle the dependent clause.
1. The children are watching a movie while their parents do some work.
2. 2. Because my dog loves pizza crusts, he never barks at the deliveryman
3. 3. The tree was struck by lightning due to the bad weather.
4. 4. While her brother played video games, Maria took the dog for a walk.
5. 5. Since I didn't go grocery shopping, we are having pizza for dinner.

Answers
1. The children are watching a movie while their parents do some work.
2. Because my dog loves pizza crusts, he never barks at the deliveryman.
3. The tree was struck by lightning due to the bad weather.
4. While her brother played video games, Maria took the dog for a walk.
5. Since I didn't go grocery shopping, we are having pizza for dinner.

Assessment
Activity Time!
Direction: Match the following clauses to construct a sentence with a complete thought.

John did his homework …we decided not to play tennis.

She is very fit Because the test was so difficult,
I usually do my homework …while my mother is cooking dinner.
Since it had started to rain, … none of the student got a very good grade.
…before he went to bed. …because she goes running everyday.

Answer:
1.
2.
3.

5.
 In general, Independent and dependent clauses are the building blocks of sentences. A single
independent clause can be a sentence, by itself. However, dependent clauses are used to make sentences more
complete and more interesting. Using conjunctions and proper punctuation, dependent and independent clauses
can be joined together to create interesting and complex compound sentences that are fun and engaging to read.

TOPIC: “Reading Strategies”

OBJECTIVE: Use reading strategies appropriately.

Let’s think!
Read and analyze the poem.

You Will Never See Me Fall

More By Joyce Alcantara

Published: April 2008

You may see me struggle,

but you won't see me fall.
Regardless if I'm weak or not,
I'm going to stand tall.
Everyone says life is easy,
but truly living it is not.
Times get hard,
people struggle
and constantly get put on the spot.
I'm going to wear the biggest smile,
even though I want to cry.
I'm going to fight to live,
even though I'm destined to die.
And even though it's hard
and I may struggle through it all,
you may see me struggle...
but you will NEVER see me fall.

 Reading
is the active process of understanding print and graphic texts. Reading is a thinking process.
Effective readers know that when they read, what they read is supposed to make sense. They monitor
their understanding, and when they lose the meaning of what they are reading, they often unconsciously
select and use a reading strategy that will help them reconnect with the meaning of the text. Reading skills
and strategies can be taught explicitly while students are learning subject-specific content through
authentic reading tasks.

Reading Strategies

Scanning and Skimming

Skimming and scanning are reading techniques that use rapid eye movement and
keywords to move quickly through text for slightly different purposes.

Scanning

Scanning refers to the technique when one looks into the document or the text provided for
searching some specific text such as some keywords.
Example – 
Now it may be applied to the real-life example of a dictionary, wherein one looks for a specific
word meaning or a directory wherein one searches for the phone number of someone.

o Scanning requires one to have a look at the whole document quickly at least once.
o Scanning requires a higher understanding of word recognition compared to skimming.
Procedure
You should search for headings and subheadings to get a good grasp of the idea, as to where
your required detail will be found.
How to scan?
o Underline the important information while reading the text (dates, numbers, names etc.)
o When you read the question, identify the key word and scan the text for it. This way
you’ll find the answer more quickly.
 Scanning process looks like this:

Skimming

Skimming means quickly reading the text to get only its main idea. To skim effectively,
you need to read only a part of the material.

You have already encountered skimming: when reading a long chapter of a book, or
doing a research on a long article. In such case, you would probably read the first sentences of each
paragraph, dropping down to the end of the paragraph.
How to skim?
1. Read the first paragraph attentively to get an idea of what will be discussed in the text.
2. Read the first (and sometimes the second) sentence of each paragraph - they give the
main idea of the paragraph.
3. After you have read the first sentences, your eyes should drop down to the end of the
paragraph, looking for important pieces of information, such as dates and names.
4. Read the last paragraph attentively as it may contain the summary.

Here’s a picture that illustrates skimming process:

Assessment
Circle the right answer for each question.
1) Scan the TV programme to find out what time you can see the news on BBC One.

The latest national and international news stories from the
BBC, followed by the weather
A) 20.00
B) 20.27
C) 20.30
20.27 BBC News and Regional News
2) Scan the TV programme to find out who presents 'Great Movie Mistakes'.
20.00 Great Movie Mistakes

C) Kate Humble
3) Scan the TV programmes to find out what is on at 19.30.
18.15 Local News
18.30 Countryfile
19.30 World News
20.00 The Science of Space
A) World News
B) Countryfile
C) Born to be Wild
4) Skim the TV programmes to find out how many times you can watch the news.
18.15 Local News
18.30 Countryfile
19.30 World News
20.00 The Science of Space
A) once
B) twice
C) three times
5) Skim the TV programmes to find out what time you can watch a programme about the
countryside.
18.15 Local News
18.30 Countryfile
 19.30 World News
20.00 The Science of Space
A) 18.15
B) 18.30
C) 19.30

In general, Skimming and scanning, are two very different strategies for speed reading. They are used
for different purposes, and they require different reading skills, but they are very significant to go about reading
comprehension.

TOPIC: “Simple Past and Past Perfect Tenses”

OBJECTIVE: Identify the difference between simple past and past perfect tenses.
REFERENCES: https://examples.yourdictionary.com/past-perfect-tense-examples.html
https://english.lingolia.com/en/grammar/tense-comparison/simple-past-past-perfect
CROSSCURENTS: Developing Global English Skills for the 21st Century

Simple Past and Past Perfect Tenses

These two tenses are both used to talk about things that happened in the past. However we use
past perfect to talk about something that happened before another action in the past, which is usually
expressed by the past simple.

Simple Past Tense

- is used to show an action, state or condition completed in the past or before the time of
speaking or writing. Sometimes, expressions like this morning, yesterday, a week ago,
last night can signal the use of simple past form. However, even without the time expressions, the
verbs can signal simple past tense.

For example

She sang yesterday.

My mother cooked our breakfast this morning.
I went to SM Megamall a week ago.
I watched a Disney movie last night.
These examples show an action happened in the past with time expressions that signal
simple past tense. However, even without the time expressions, the verbs can signal
simple past tense.
For example:

He won the silver medal.

I solved the puzzle.
He dumped the garbage.

How is simple past tense formed?

Regular Verbs. The past tense of regular verbs is formed by adding “d” or “ed” to the
base for of the verb.
Examples:

Base Form Simple Past Tense

paint Painted

yawn Yawned

dance Danced

Irregular Verbs have different forms for their past tense. There are may be change in
spelling or they maybe no change at all

Examples:

Present Tense Simple Past

alight alighted, alit

arise arose

awake awoke, awaked

be was, were

bear bore

beat beat

become became

beget begot
 Let’ try to supply the correct form of the simple past.

1. (I watch) _____ TV last week.

2. We (eat) ______ meat with my best friend yesterday.

3. The bus (stop)_________ a few minutes ago.

4. I (meet)________ my best friend 9 years ago.

5. She (leave)______the school in 2010.

Answers:
1. I watched TV last week.
2. We ate meat with my best friend yesterday.
3. The bus stopped a few minutes ago.
4. I met my best friend 9 years ago.
5. She left the school in 2010.

Past Perfect Tense

This expresses two past actions, one happened before the other.

For examples:
She had sung before she danced.
The plane had left by the time I got to the airport.
I had written the email before he apologized.

These examples show an action before another action happened in the past.

Note: The actions that took place before another past action is expressed in the past
perfect tense form (had + past participle) while the second past action is expressed in the simple
past tense form. In the series of two completed past actions, the past perfect tense is used to express
the first past action , while the simple past tense s used to express the second past action.

The past perfect is formed using had + past participle.

Let’s try
Supply the following sentences by the correct form of the verb.

1. She stayed up all night because she (receive)__________ bad news.

2. She (visit)___________ her Japanese relatives once in 1993 before she moved in with
them in 1996.
3. Anthony (meet)_________ Ryan before you introduced him to us at the party.
4. You (study)_________ Italian before you moved to Rome.
 Answers:
1. She stayed up all night because she had received bad news.
2. She had visited her Japanese relatives once in 1993 before she moved in with them in
1996.
3. Anthony had met Ryan before you introduced him to us at the party.
4. You had studied Italian before you moved to Rome.

Assessment
Direction: Put the verbs into the correct tense (simple past or past perfect simple).

1. William (live)  in Boston for six years before he (move)   to

New York.

2. The blue car (cross)   the street after the lights (turn)   red.

3. When James (try)   to ring us, we (leave / already)   the house.

4. After Joanna (finish)   her presentation, we (ask)   our questions.

5. On her first day at the driving school, we (be)   very nervous because

we (drive / not)   a car before.

In general, Simple Past Tense describes one action or state in the past while Past Perfect Tense
when two events stated or implied, the past perfect is used to describe the earlier event.

TOPIC: “Direct and Indirect Speech”

OBJECTIVE: Construct a direct and reported speech.
REFERENCES: https://www.wallstreetenglish.com/blog/direct-and-indirect-speech-exercises/
https://english4today.com/grammar-topic/direct-and-indirect-speech/

There are many occasions in which we need to describe an event or action that happened, and
very often that includes repeating what someone said. Such occasions can include a social situation as
well as in a work email or presentation. In order to describe what people said there are two different
types of speech – direct speech and indirect speech (or reported speech).

“Direct and Indirect Speech”

Direct speech
 Direct speech repeats, or quotes, the exact words spoken. When we use direct speech in
writing, we place the words spoken between inverted commas (“….”) and there is no
change in these words. We may be reporting something that’s being said NOW (for example
a telephone conversation), or telling someone later about a previous conversation
Examples
 She says “What time will you be home?”
 She said “What time will you be home?” and I said “I don’t know! “
 “There’s a fly in my soup!” screamed Simone.
 John said, “There’s an elephant outside the window.”

Indirect speech
 Indirect speech is usually used to talk about the past, so we normally change the tense of
the words spoken. We use reporting verbs like ‘say’, ‘tell’, ‘ask’, and we may use the
word ‘that’ to introduce the reported words. Inverted commas are not used.
Example
She said, “I saw him.” —->  She said that she had seen him.
‘That’ may be omitted:
She told him that she was happy.
She told him she was happy.

‘Say’ and ‘tell’:
Use ‘say’ when there is no indirect object:
He said that he was tired.
Always use ‘tell’ when you say who was being spoken to (i.e. with an indirect object):
He told me that he was tired.

‘Talk’ and ‘speak’ are used: – to describe the action of communicating:

He talked to us.
She was speaking on the telephone.
– with ‘about’ to refer to what was said:
He talked (to us) about his parents.
Let’s try
Direction: Change the direct speech into reported speech.

"I admire you." - She said she admired me.

"I will do it for you." - She said she would do it for me.

1. "I cannot come." - Mary explained that __________.

2. "I could fall down." - He was afraid_____________ down.
3. "I will pay tomorrow." - He said he would pay _____________________.
4. "The Himalayas are the highest." - He knew that the Himalayas ______________the highest.
5. "I may lend you some money." - Bill promised ____________some money.

Answers:
"I cannot come." - Mary explained that she could not come.
"I could fall down." - He was afraid he could fall down.
"I will pay tomorrow." - He said he would pay the next day / the following day.
"The Himalayas are the highest." - He knew that the Himalayas are / were the highest.
"I may lend you some money." - Bill promised he might lend me some money.
 Assessment

Direction: Complete the sentences below.

1. She said, “I am so happy!”

She said ___________________________________________.

2. Tom said, “I cooked dinner last night”

Tom said ___________________________________________.

3. They said, “We are going to the football match”

They said ___________________________________________.

4. He said, “Kevin is training for the marathon”

He said _____________________________________________.

5. I said, “the shop closes at 7 P.M. tonight”

I said _______________________________________________.

In general, Direct and Indirect speech play a crucial in giving an information. In direct speech,
we convey the message of the speaker in his own actual words without any change to another person while
in indirect speech, we convey the message of the speaker in our own words to another person.

Assignment

Topic: Listening
Objective: Understands Listening Skills.
Reference:https://www.skillsyouneed.com/ips/listeningskills.html#:~:text=Listening%20is%20the%20ability
%20to,effectively%2C%20messages%20are%20easily%20misunderstood.
http://www.slideshare.net/search/slideshow?searchfrom=header&q=listening

The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps
the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention.
- Dr. Rachel Naomi Remen

What is listening?
Listening is the ability to accurately receive and interpret messages in the communication process.
Listening is key to all effective communication. Without the ability to listen effectively, messages are easily
misunderstood. As a result, communication breaks down and the sender of the message can easily become
frustrated or irritated.
If there is one communication skill you should aim to master, then listening is it.

Listening is Not the Same as Hearing

Hearing refers to the sounds that enter your ears. It is a physical process that, provided you do not have any
hearing problems, happens automatically.
Listening, however, requires more than that: it requires focus and concentrated effort, both mental and
sometimes physical as well. 
Listening means paying attention not only to the story, but how it is told, the use of language and voice, and
how the other person uses his or her body. In other words, it means being aware of both verbal and non-verbal
messages. Your ability to listen effectively depends on the degree to which you perceive and understand these
messages.

Process of Listening

1. Receiving/Hearing
It refers to the response caused by sound waves stimulating the sensory
receptors of the ear.
2. Understanding
It is the stage at which you learn what the speaker means.

3. Remembering
It is important listening process because it means that an individual has not
only received and interpreted a message but has also added it to the
mind's storage bank.

4. Evaluating
It consists of judging the messages in some way. At times you may try to
evaluate the speaker’s underlying intentions or motives.

5. Responding
This stage requires that the receiver complete the process through verbal
and/or nonverbal feedback.
 TYPES OF LISTENING

• Appreciative Listening
• Emphatic Listening
• Comprehensive/Active Listening
• Critical/ Analytical Listening

 Appreciative Listening
This is listening for pleasure and enjoyment.
- listen to music, to a comedy routine
- describes how well speakers choose and use words, use humor, ask
questions and tell stories.

• Emphatic Listening
This is a type of listening that provide emotional support for the
speaker.
It focuses on understanding and identifying with a person’s situation,
feelings.

• Active Listening
- listening to understand the message of a speaker.
- As when we attend a classroom lecture focuses on accurately
understanding the meaning of the speaker’s words.

• Critical Listening
-listening to evaluate a message for purposes of accepting or rejecting it.
- sales pitch of a used-car dealer focuses on evaluating whether a message
is logical and reasonable.

Topic: Listening Strategies

Objective: Use listening strategies based on purpose, familiarity with the topic and levels of difficulty of short
texts listened to.
Reference: https://www.slideshare.net/tmaricruzgomez/listening-strategies-11965992
https://study.com/academy/practice/quiz-worksheet-top-down-bottom-up-listening-in-class.html

Q u e s t i o n s t o reflect!

1. How often do you seem clueless after a listening activity?

2. How much do you know about listening?
Do you agree with this?
 Language learning depends on listening.
 When you listen to a conversation in English, you try to understand every word.
 When you have difficulty
 Understanding what a speaker means you ask for clarification.
 Listening to songs and radio programs in English are two of the best ways to learn the language.
 When you disagree with a speaker's message, you usually stop paying attention.
 Your role as a listener is to show interest.
 As you listen to someone speak you take notes to help yourself understand the message.
How much do learners retain from the listening input?
Why is listening an important skill to develop in your language learners?
Because language learners need it:
 To obtain information
 To understand
 For enjoyment
 To learn
 To communicate

It is essential for you to become effective active listeners.

How can we do so?
 By modeling listening strategies
 By providing active listening practice

What is active listening?

It is the effort to hear not only the words that another person is saying
but, more importantly, to try to understand the total message being sent.

What are listening strategies?

They are techniques or activities that contribute directly to the comprehension and recall of listening input.

Type of Listening Strategies

1. Top -Down Listening Strategies
- They are listener- based.
- The listener taps into background knowledge of the topic, the situation or context,
the type of text, and the language. This background knowledge activates a set of
expectations that help the listener interpret what is heard and anticipate what
comes next.
- Predicting
- Listening for the main ideas
- Shadow the speaker
- Taking notes
 2. Bottom- Up Listening Strategies
- They are text based. The listener relies on the language in the message
(sounds, words, and grammar that creates meaning)

 Listening for specific details

 Recognizing word sounds

Tips for effective listening

1. Activate your prior knowledge before any listening activity in order to predict or anticipate content.
2. Assess your background knowledge on the topic and linguistic content of the text.
3. If you are to complete a written task during or immediately after listening, Read through it before
listening.
4. Review what you are hearing to see if it makes sense in the context of their prior knowledge and what you
already know of the topic or events of the passage.

Let us PRACTICE!
1. Which of the following BEST describes top down listening?
a. Focusing on rhyming words
b. Focusing on sentence structure
c. Focusing on grammar
d. Focusing on the big picture

2. Which of the following strategies would help students develop top down listening
skills?
a. Have them diagram sentences
b. Have them watch the person's lips
c. Have them define vocabulary words first
d. Have them close their eyes and do envisioning

3. Which of the following BEST describes bottom up listening?

a. Activating your schema
b. Focusing on the overall themes
c. Listening for clues to the speaker’s purpose
d. Focusing on sentence structure

Topic: Search Engine and its types

Objective: Use a search engine to conduct a guided search on a given topic.

E E
Introduction to Search Engines
SEARCH ENGINES
 A web search engine is a software system that is designed to search for information on the World Wide
E
Web.
 It uses the keywords to search for documents that relate to these key words and then puts the result in
order of relevance to the topic that was searched for.
HOW DOES A SEARCH ENGINE WORK
 A search engine is a website, but generally speaking, a search engine wouldn't normally provide answers
straight away. Search engines crawl through websites using computers to make an electronic copy of
website
 When we enter a search term and it brings up a number of pages from its database which it thinks are
applicable to your search terms.

IMPORTANCE OF SEARCH ENGINES

Well, a website is something you already know how to get on and where to go, which is typing the URL into the
little space provided. A search engine helps you find an appropriate website for something you are looking for
but don't know the URL but still need to find what you are looking for. After you type it into a search engine a
bunch of URLs will pop up and you click on the 1 you think is most helpful.
Search engines are important because with over 8 billion web pages available, it would be impossible to search
for the information that is specifically needed. This is why search engines are used to filter the information that
is on the internet and transform it into results that each individual can easily access and use within the matter of
seconds.

TYPES OF SEARCH ENGINES

1. CRAWLER BASED SEARCH ENGINES

• This search engines use a "spider" or a "crawler" to search the internet. The crawler digs through
individual web pages, pulls out keywords and then adds the pages to the search engine's
Database.
 Google and yahoo are examples of crawler search engines.

GOOGLE

Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1998 .

The homepage of Google has a button labeled as “I’m feeling lucky”. When a user types in a search and

clicks on the button, the user is directly taken to the first search result.

Google has various “special features” which include weather, unit conversion, currency conversion, time,
calculator, maps etc.
YAHOO

Yahoo was founded by David Filo and Jerry Yang.

The first Yahoo Company started in 1995
Yahoo operates a portal that provides the latest news, entertainment, and sports information. The portal also
gives users access to other Yahoo services like Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Maps, Yahoo Finance, Yahoo
Groups and Yahoo Messenger.

2. DIRECTORIES
 Directories depend on human editors to create their listings or the database. Yahoo directory, open
directory and look smart are few examples.
 Human-powered directories are good when you are interested in a general topic of search.

3. HYBRID SEARCH ENGINES

 Hybrid search engines are search engines that use both crawler based searches and directory
searches to obtain their results .
 Example:- yahoo.com and google.com

4. META SEARCH ENGINES

 These transmit user-supplied keywords simultaneously to several individual search engines to
actually carry out the search.
 Search results returned from all the search engines can be integrated, duplicates can be
eliminated and additional features such as clustering by subjects within the search results can be
implemented by meta-search engines.
 Example: dogpile, metacrawler
 DOGPILE

 Dogpile is a search engine that fetches results from Google, Yahoo! and includes results
from several other popular search engines.
 Dogpile began operation in November 1996. The site was created and developed by
Aaron Flin and later sold to Go2net .

HOW TO MAKE A BETTER SEARCH

• Keep it simple
• Think how the page you are looking for will be written
• describe what you need with as few terms as possible
• Choose descriptive words
Let us PRACTICE!
1. What are web search engines?
a. A tool designed to search for information on world wide web
b. A tool designed for the web directory
c. A tool used to build things out of wood.
2. Which of the following search engines are the most popular?
a. Yahoo
b. Msn
c. Google
3. How do you choose which search engine to use?
a. You chose the one that earns money.
 b. It is your personal preference
c. The one you have to pay to use.
4. You should not keep your search query simple.
a. True
b. False
5. Search engines are a tool to search for information on the world wide web.
a. True
b. False

Topic: Basic Web Navigation
Objective: Navigate a website using essential features, e.g using headings, links, etc.
Reference: https://www.slideshare.net/glvsav37/web-navigation-presentation

Basic Web Navigation

Role of navigation…
For users:
1. Find stuff they want
2. Get an overview of what’s on the site
3. See where they are
4. See where they can go
For site owners:
1. Drive people to action points
2. Cross-sell services or highlight additional information
3. Show what is/isn’t available
4. Be found on Google

Choosing a navigation style

• Why the navigation is there (its role)
• Who will be using it
 • Where they want to go
• What YOU want them to do
• How you will manage it (CMS etc)

The Structural-Browser Model

• The Family-Tree model
• Creates a clear hierarchy of content
• Collection of links advance the user to other pages

Horizontal Navigation
• Conserves the most amount of screen space
• Makes for using drop downs for secondary navigation
• Location most familiar for users, we read left to right
• Does have a limit in terms of length of navigation item
Vertical Navigation
• Good for sites with a lot of main navigation items
 • Supports multiple types of secondary navigation
• Can act as a page design element
• Normally takes up more space then horizontal navigation

Secondary Navigation
• Common location for displaying B-level pages
 • Moves out of the way when not active to conserver screen space
• Don’t rely on more than 2 levels of pop-out/drop down menus
• Design enough contrast with the information below so the user can clearly read the text

Utility Navigation
• Assistant pages
 • Pages that don’t fit into a single logical category
• Location/Language selectors
• Shopping Cart/User login info
• Pages that you want displayed on every page

Footer Links
• Provides a place for important information away from other content
• Acts as a visual “End” to your page
• Allows users to access pages without scrolling back to the top
• Can be styled as multiple columns
Breadcrumb Trails
• Don’t use when you don’t need to
• Don’t use as primary navigation
• Don’t use when pages have multiple categories
• Convenient for users
• Reduces clicks to return to higher- level pages
• Doesn’t usually hog screen space

Search Boxes
• Not every website needs a search box
• The box must be clearly visible, quickly recognizable and easy to use
• A search box should be a box.
• A search box should be simple
 • Don’t make the input field too short
• Don’t making the submit button too small

Pagination Navigation
• Provide large clickable areas
• Identify the current page
• Space out page links
• Provide Previous and Next links
• Use First and Last links
• Put First and Last links on the outside
• Give the user a sense of volume

The Golden Rules of Web Navigation.

1. Don’t make the user think
2. Don’t test user patience
3. Focus their attention
4. Organize your content
5. Use natural descriptions
6. Strive for simplicity
7. Embrace whitespace
8. Don’t assume

the river was full, the water was clear, and the sun was shining in a cloudless sky.
Tom said, “Let’s go fishing!”
Bill wasn’t so sure. “We have a test today. Shouldn’t we go to class?”
“Nonsense,” said Tom. “You only live once. A day like this won’t come along again.”
Bill wasn’t sure this was a good idea, but suddenly a fish jumped from the sparkling water. He decided Tom
was right; they should definitely skip class on such a nice day!

Tiger sharks are named for the dark, vertical
Stripes found mainly on juveniles. As these sharks
mature, the lines begin to fade and almost disappear.
These large, blunt-nosed predators have a duly earned
reputation as man-eaters. They are second only to great
whites in attacking people. But because they have a
near completely undiscerning palate, they are not likely
to swim away after biting a human, as great whites frequently do.
They are consummate scavengers, with excellent
senses of sight and smell and a nearly limitless menu of
diet items. They have sharp, highly serrated teeth and
powerful jaws that allow them to crack the shells of sea
turtles and clams. The stomach contents of captured
tiger sharks have included stingrays, sea snakes, seals, birds, squids, and even license plates and old tires.
