Oral and Written Language

Language can be oral and written. It requires the operation of complex mechanisms. Oral language includes listening and speaking, while written language reading and writing.

Speaking/listening and writing/reading constitute the two fundamental means of language production and perception. Oral language is direct and has many paralinguistic features, including tone of voice, eye contact, style, body posture, and gestures. Paralinguistic elements of communication play an important role in how meaning is conveyed, helping listeners interpret content appropriately (Barton). On the other hand, written language lacks all the above-mentioned paralinguistic features. It is not direct and does not encourage feedback (Barton).

Written Language Production - paragraph structure

This is an excellent, easy to use and nicely structured resource to use with those students who are stuck learning to write paragraphs. My only reservation is that the pictures are a little confusing in the section showing pictures and then writing a paragraph. I would still recommend this resource highly.
