language in communication.

LET’S LEARN
Oral text-types generally refer to individual presentation and group

interaction.
Individual Presentation
 Individual speaker presents ideas or information over a sustained period

(3-5 minutes)
 May be quite informal, depending on task and audience
 Requires comparatively long turns, hence requires a more explicit structure
 May be followed by questions or comments from the audience (some
questions / comments do not form part of the assessment, but it provides
students with more opportunities to interact with others / exchange ideas,
which can encourage assessment for learning)
 Samples are impromptu, extemporaneous, persuasive and other public
speeches
Group Interaction
 An exchange of short turns or dialogue between two or more speakers

(e.g. 8-12 minutes for a group of 4)
 Comparatively short turns, hence needs less explicit structuring
 Usually quite informal
 Needs attention to turn-taking skills and planning of how to initiate,
maintain and control the interaction through making suggestions, asking
questions and expansion of ideas
For effective communication, both text-types also require the

following skills:
 Capacity to speak intelligibly and reasonably fluently with suitable

intonation, volume and stress, using pauses and body language such as
eye contact appropriately and effectively
 Range of vocabulary and language patterns that are accurate and varied
 Some use of technical terminology to support meaning but specialized
jargon should be avoided
 Some use of formulaic language when appropriate for structuring (but
overuse of set phrases is discouraged)
 Language that is natural and interactive, not memorized or read aloud
