Subject: GUIDED WRITING FOR STUDENTS OF INDONESIAN & MALAY - NEW FOR
2007!

GUIDED WRITING FOR STUDENTS 

OF INDONESIAN & MALAY

Guided Writing comprises 12 lessons which help a student develop a
variety of writing skills. These include: writing chronological
sequences, indicating spatial relations, classifying, comparing and
contrasting, generalising, showing cause and effect, expressing opinion,
defining, predicting, hypothesising, proposing and refuting.

A set of terms and sentence structures accompanies each lesson, followed
by a set of exercises. These are both guided and free. For the guided
exercises, students use data from Indonesian and Malaysian newspapers.

Students write paragraphs or essays on a variety of topics which
include: detailing the causes of unemployment or the effect of heavy
rain in Jakarta, classifying TV programmes or national currencies,
comparing horoscopes or the result of earthquakes in different areas,
generalising about freedom of the press or the effect of junk food on
children, expressing opinions about tobacco sponsorship of sport or
searching for love on the internet, predicting the potential for a
tsunami or flooding, or the successes of a film or restaurant.

Suggested topics are given for the free exercises. Both guided and free
exercises are of varying levels of difficulty. These range from an
autobiological account of one's studies at high school or university, to
drafting proposals as the head of a company or making predictions about
future developments in medicine. Also presented are sample outlines and
paragraphs, sample letter formats and models for writing definitions.

The Indonesian and Malay texts are presented in a parallel format
enabling immediate comparison between the two. This allows students to
develop a dominant competence in one version of the language, and a
general familiarity with the other.

New to this edition are two full glossaries. The first, English to
Indonesian and Malay, includes all of the English words in the terms, or
istilah, section of each writing lesson and their Indonesian and Malay
equivalents, as well as the number of the lesson where the term was
first introduced. The second glossary, Indonesian and Malay to English,
includes all of the Indonesian and Malay words in the text, including
the newspaper selections presented as part of the guided writing
exercises. Suggested writing topics have been updated, and additional
exercises for each section of the text have also been included.

Guided Writing for Students of Indonesian & Malay

This text is best used between 120 and 360 hours or 6 - 18 months of
