SST II
Have you experienced writing about your summer
and Christmas vacation?
Have you already started writing a title of your
thesis, or have you assigned to do a book review
or reaction paper?
Or may be you asked to write a poems, skit, or
letters?
But, have you already pondered of the various
writing outputs that you have done? What are
their differences?
Poems, skits, letter composition
about your summer and
Christmas vacation are examples
of non-academic texts.
Non-academic texts may be
considered that writing which is
personal, emotional,
impressionistic, or subjective in
nature.
It can be more informal in tone,
and may even rely more heavily
on emotional appeal or the
opinions of the author.
On the other hand, a book
review, a reaction paper and a
thesis are examples of academic
texts.
