This text is an adaptation by Allison Kilgannon, an assistant professor with seven years of post-secondary ABE English teaching experience. The adapted text was written by five college reading and writing instructors, who drew from decades of experience teaching students who are entering the college reading and writing environment for the very first time. Its original format included examples, exercises, and definitions for many reading- and writing-related topics encountered in your college courses.<br \/>\nThis adaptation accomplish these further goals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Replaces almost all American material with Canadian.<\/li>\n<li>Adheres to Canadian spelling and conventions.<\/li>\n<li>Rigorously follows ABE Articulation Handbook Required Learning Outcomes for Advanced Level English as provided by the Province of <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.gov.bc.ca\/gov\/content\/governments\/organizational-structure\/ministries-organizations\/ministries\/advanced-education-skills-training#:~:text=The%20Ministry%20of%20Advanced%20Education,labour%20market%20information%20and%20programs.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">British Columbia Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Training<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How the Text is Organized<\/p>\n<p>While navigating through the textbook, you\u2019ll notice that the major part of the textbook you\u2019re working within is identified at the top of the page. We hope this helps you to navigate between sections and subsections and to understand the relationships between them.<\/p>\n<h3>How Should You Use This Text?<\/h3>\n<p>This text can be used by an instructor of an Advanced English class on its own to satisfy all the requirements of the course. Your instructor may want you to read through all parts of this text to make sure that all material is covered. Your instructor may, of course, choose to present material to you in other formats or through their own lessons to you in class.<\/p>\n<h3>Gendered and Gender-Neutral Language<\/h3>\n<p>As you read, you may notice that we use a variety of pronouns such as she\/her, he\/him, or they\/them to refer to a person we\u2019re discussing. Our goal is to represent all people, regardless of gender, and to do so in a balanced way. Therefore, in some paragraphs, we may designate \u201cshe\u201d as the pronoun, while in others \u201che\u201d will stand in for the person being written about. However, you\u2019ll also come across \u201cthey\u201d being used as a <a href=\"https:\/\/grammar.yourdictionary.com\/parts-of-speech\/pronouns\/what-is-a-singular-pronoun.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">singular pronoun<\/a>, which may be confusing at first. The pronoun \u201cthey\u201d allows a single person to represent any gender, or no gender, including those genders that aren\u2019t accurately represented by \u201che\u201d and \u201cshe.\u201d It\u2019s important to consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grammarly.com\/blog\/gender-neutral-language\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gender-neutral language<\/a> in your own writing, so we wanted to make sure we modeled what that looks like in this text.<\/p>\n<p>As a student, much of your time will be spent interacting with texts of all types, shapes, sizes, and delivery methods.<\/p>\n<p>In academic terms, a text is anything that conveys a set of meanings to the person who examines it. You might have thought that texts were limited to written materials, such as books, magazines, newspapers, and \u2018zines (an informal term for magazine that refers especially to fanzines and webzines). Those items are indeed texts\u2014but so are movies, paintings, television shows, songs, political cartoons, online materials, advertisements, maps, works of art, and even rooms full of people. If we can look at something, explore it, find layers of meaning in it, and draw information and conclusions from it, we\u2019re looking at a text.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><iframe frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowFullscreen=\"true\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 700px; border: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/online.visual-paradigm.com\/share\/book\/advanced-english-13u2pxw2fn?enforceShowPromotionBar=true&#038;p=1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18575,"template":"","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Welcome to the Advanced English textbook, designed to fulfill the requirements for the Adult Basic Education (ABE) Advanced English Course.
