1. Genre analysis
One significant example of learning is found in the genre analysis. Going in to this paper, I had no idea about what I needed to know about genres. I had a good understanding what it was, but not much of anything else. Through this entry, I learned what genres are and what they’re not, like how they are not primarily literacy, rather all sorts of interactions. I also learned that they are not defined just by textual regularities or form/content, instead defined more by situation. I also learned the importance in studying genres as well as its individual characterizations such as social, cultural, rhetorical or dynamic categories.
