The objective of this portfolio is to have a compilation of all of the works I have done in this class, with the purpose of getting a better understanding about communication in my life

# data[].attributes.body
What is the relevance of communication in society?

Communication in society is one of the most important things, because without communication we could not express our feelings and thoughts to other people. Communication is key to every part of our lives.

What are the main aspects of communication and context? How do they affect the communication process?

The main aspects of communication and context are the environment that the situation is happening in and another very important factor is the people that you’re communicating to. The people and the environment affect the communication process considering that you can not communicate in an informal way to your boss or any superiors. On the other hand, you can act and communicate differently when you are with friends or family.

I used the webpage Padlet in order to do my portfolio because I found it easy to use and, its easy to look and read for anyone who wants to see it.

I decided to organize it in modules, I find it easy to organize them in columns, it also serves as a way to organize my activities chronologically, based on the activities I did first and then last.

The modules are separated by colors, this to improve my Portafolio visually.

The reflections were added according to the module they were made at that moment, also, these are added last so these do not get mixed up with the other activities.

The references are situated in a separate column, because this way they will be easier to find

What is the relevance of linguistic conventions in conveying a message?

This is vital for conveying and showing your messages because linguistic conventions help to add more coherence to the message. The way they achieve this is by using the proper grammatical rules, the correct tune, if it's a serious subject, being more professional, and as for an unserious one, the opposite, vocabulary, etc. Linguistic conventions also help to maintain interest in the subject that is talked about. It can be concluded that linguistic conventions show that you care for the audience to whom you are introducing your messages and help to improve communication between both parties.

Why should you modify the quantity or quality of information you provide according to the communication media and its context?

Because if one does not give the correct context, it can be interpreted in the wrong way, and the original idea could be lost. At the same time, there are moments where one must show seriousness in the way they provide the interaction, given that this will show that if they are taking this seriously, then the subject will also be serious.

How could you describe the linguistic simplification process?

It is a process where, at the moment of expressing yourself, one uses a vocabulary that is considered more casual; it is also straightforward and uses mechanisms such as irregular grammar or a changed vocabulary, usually, this will depend on the cultural context the person surrounds themselves with. Another way the text can be simplified is by taking out some words from the sentence, but the context will still remain the same. This way of talking will usually be natural, given that we do not overthink when we are speaking about this matter and/or because we didn't practice or rehearse what we wanted to say beforehand.

# data[].attributes.body
What types of genre did you choose?

I chose to go with a more professional approach because the letter is a serious subject and I wanted to be taken in such a way

What were some of the challenges you encountered while preparing your texts?

For the letter of intent, looking for information was not necessarily hard but a larger process. As for looking for a story, I considered it the most difficult part because I wanted to connect with a quote that could relate to my own goals and missions while at the same time relating to my field of study. As for the elevator speech,, it was not as hard as the letter, but it was still hard to think of the correct way to introduce myself quickly without making my listener bored.

What linguistic conventions did you take into account while preparing both texts?

In both texts, I used formal frases and correct grammar; I avoided using casual speech or colloquial words; the tone I used was a serious one in both of them. The only difference would be that in the spoken speech, I used different connectors because I am talking face-to-face with someone.

How useful is taking the context into consideration when we develop different texts?

Is really useful because it will help me to set the correct tune and the correct grammatical rules for each occasion, and at the same time, it will help me to get my message across the way I wanted it without it being interpreted in the wrong way.

What is the function of the textual and paratextual elements (different kinds of font size, and color)?

The function of the textual and paratextual elements is to make the reader pay more attention to those words. When the font size or the color of the letters change it captures more the attention of the reader.

What is the purpose of identifying the elements and characteristics that make up a text?

Its purpose is to aid in comprehension, which helps the readers grasp the meaning of the topic that they are reading. This also helps the critical thinking of a person develop, because they can question, agree, and interact with the text.

Based on your observations, what are the main differences between a popular article and a scientific article?

The differences between a popular article and a scientific article are mainly how the text is written and the content in the article. Scientific articles tend to be written in a more academic or formal language, in the other hand, popular articles tend to be written in a more informal everyday language.

Why does the author include other author's ideas?

For a variety of reasons, authors draw on the work of others in order to advance knowledge and contextualize their own arguments. Considering other points of view encourages deeper conversations and insightful ideas, which in turn pushes readers to approach the subject critically.

Why is it important to give credit to the ideas of other authors?

Recognizing the contributions of others helps to avoid plagiarism, and showing references to sources shows that the author has read and considered established theories, which improves the quality of the work.

# data[].attributes.body
What is the effect of non-verbal language on the exchange of ideas?

By improving understanding, communicating emotions, and establishing a connection between communicators, it affects the idea exchange. Cues like posture, gestures, and expressions of the face are included in this, which have the potential to clarify and strengthen spoken messages.

What is active listening?

The process by which a person engages fully in a conversation in order to comprehend the speaker's message and obtain further details. Paying close attention to the speaker is part of it.

What is the difference between hearing and listening?

Hearing is a process that requires active engagement and effort to comprehend, interpret, and respond to the conversation; on the other hand, listening is an activity that involves perceiving sound waves through the ears without conscious effort.

What is critical reading?

Instead of merely absorbing a text, critical reading means analyzing, evaluating, and interpreting it. Through critically examining the author's evidence, assumptions, and arguments, readers must engage with the material.Through this process, deeper understanding is fostered, and readers are encouraged to develop their own opinions based on a well-reasoned analysis.

What is the relationship between active listening and critical reading?

Both of these involve engaging with the information. By encouraging a mindset of inquiry and being open to a variety of perspectives, people can improve their ability to critically read by cultivating skills in active listening. Critical reading, on the other hand, improves active listening by enhancing analytical skills and facilitating comprehension during oral communication.

What is the structure of expository texts?

Expository texts are structured in a way that can inform the reader in a clear and logical way. These usually contain an introduction, body, and conclusion. An introduction gives the essential background and presents the main idea, followed by topic sentences that summarize the major ideas are founded in the body, and finally, the conclusion wraps up the discussion and offers ramifications.

How can you identify each section in an expository text?

In an expository text you can identify the sections by following each of the main subheadings, most of the time it will be in bold, so you can get to difference the structure and how the text is divided, getting to identify it in a much more noticeable and easier way.

How useful are the apps you used?

The apps used are very useful for our team because we can all work at the same time and see how we are contributing to the activity.

What is the greatest difficulty you had while using those apps?

These types of apps are innovating really fast and they include new options and tools that are difficult to know all of them

# data[].attributes.body
What are some of the features of an argumentative text?

The essential point and main argument is stated in the thesis statement, which is supported by the introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. In order to show that they understand the subject, the author addresses and refutes counterarguments in addition to providing evidence to back up their own statements. Rhetorical devices and persuasive language strengthen the argument's persuasiveness and the text's impact is enhanced by language that is precise and clear.

How can you identify each section?

Usually, the introduction starts with a hook or attention-grabbing line to draw the reader in. As we move on to the body paragraphs, each one typically begins with a topic sentence that presents the primary idea of the paragraph and is followed by facts, figures, or instances that provide evidence for the claim made in the paragraph. Lastly, the conclusion—which frequently uses expressions like "In conclusion"—serves to restate the thesis and summarize the key points.

Why is it easy to make a fake argument?

Nowadays, with technology, it is easier to create fake images and videos, and the human brain is programmed to see and believe. We can still identify when a picture feels suspicious, but someone who doesn't have a lot of knowledge related to technology can be convinced easier. Also, rather of using reasoned reasoning, fake arguments frequently rely on emotional appeals. This may increase their persuasiveness even in the absence of factual backing.

What are the consequences?

False arguments can influence people and institutions to make bad choices in the areas of politics, health, finances, and interpersonal relationships by feeding them incorrect information or erroneous ideas. By polarizing opinions, these can further exacerbate social differences by making it more difficult for people to establish common ground or have productive conversations.

Although constructing a portfolio is a simple activity, it may involve the following difficulties that needs to be observed when constructing it. The first major challenge is to determine the goal and target group since it determines the content and form of presentation. Designing the content in an appropriate manner is not easy, because the main focus should be given on structuring the content in the way that makes it as easily understandable and visually appealing as possible for the viewers. Also, digital portfolio definitely requires some kind of technical skills in term of web design or using some software tools, which might be a problem for some people. Accepting feedback from others can be challenging because it means that one has to accept other people’s opinions about his or her work. In addition, some of the challenges, for instance, in presenting personal brand/voice through the portfolio entails critical self-reflection and clear understanding of the brand being portrayed. It is important to note these are some of the challenges that need to be addressed in order to developed a successful portfolio.
