To practice and improve our writing skills we had to make a memoreport. I'm now going to discuss how i prepared for this and what the results are.
Memo report,
We first had to write a few example memo-reports to practice. Our teacher gave us the link of a program which will evaluate the text when you are uploading it on this page: http://www.lextutor.ca/vp/eng/. The program will search for the type of words you use in your text, the so-called K1 words, K2 words, AML words and off-list words.
- K1 words: 1000 most frequently used English words.
- K2 words: second 1000 most frequently used English words.
- AML words: 570 word families which are frequently used in a broad range of academic texts.
- Off-list words: words which are not in the other three word list
You can see my score of the practice memo-report in this table:
Words recategorized by user as 1k items (proper nouns etc): NONE (total 0 tokens)
|
Looking to this score it should be good. But to become a more native English writer is should improve the K2 words, because of the low percentage.
I really thought this wouldn't be enough to get a sufficient grade but after the teacher graded the last memoreport I was happy. The result was good even my score was low on the K2 words. My grade was a 7,37 so more then sufficient.
Thank you for reading my blog.
