Learner’s Tasks
Lesson Overview
In the previous lecture, you mastered the four writing patterns: narration, definition, description, and
classification.
An introduction, a key statement or assertion, a body, and a conclusion are all common features of
academic essays. The content of an essay is made up of key points and supporting units that must be
organized logically and according to the essay's definition.
Besides, there are many ways of organizing information using various development patterns. These
patterns, known as "rhetorical modes," in education, reflect how people think and how they demonstrate
their understanding through writing.
Rhetorical patterns are types of information organization that are based on how people understand
knowledge using words. Typical methods include contrast and comparison, cause-and-effect, problem-
solving, and persuasion. These common patterns will help you build and organize information in your
essays. Learning to use these development patterns in writing is simple; all you must do is to be familiar
with key transitional phrases that tell the reader which pattern is being used. Then you'll need to figure out
which strategies will help you develop your ideas the most.
