Reflection on unit 6

In unit 1 until 5, we have covered all the elements that are needed in critical literacy. So in this unit, it is the time for us to apply all the techniques that we have learned. The background reading is ‘Invasion of the baby snatchers’. We need to approach the text using the 10 elements that we have learned and present it in the class. It is called the critical response. It is actually quite the same with the approach we too on our assignments 2, which the article is on gay relationships.

The article ‘Invasion of the baby snatchers’ is about the child abductions that are under control nowadays. Other than worrying about the abducted children who have parents to care and worry about, there are still children who are neglected and live with their parents who do not even care about them. These children, who cannot disappear because they are already lost, are the ones who need to be care of by the authority and the media, not only the sensational stories of child kidnapping.

In conclusion, I need to polish more my skills on the 10 elements because I think I still have problems in some parts, for example the implicit part of the texts.
