informative texts to become accessible to us via radio, television, online websites,
various information platforms like YouTube, social media etc.

NEVN
DRAMAGI
Process Questions:
1. What word have you formed from the given set of letters?
2. Are you familiar with this graphic organizer?
3. Do you find this helpful in understanding a text you are reading? Why?
Understanding a text may require constant practice and good technique. One of the
techniques is using an advanced organizer. Examples of advanced organizers include
metaphors, analogies, flowchart, graphs, tables, illustrations, or even pictures.
Understanding is synonymous to interpreting. When you interpret an advance
organizer, you need to draw relationships of data, thus, forming a certain message or
meaning out of the relationship drawn. It is vital for any advance organizer to use
appropriate figures or symbols to stand for a certain data or idea. Just like writing like
a short story, poem or song, it is important to label it with a title that usually bears the
main idea in the whole graphic presentation. Using an advance organizer is like
transferring what you have understood from the text with much lesser word used. As a
result, you are summing up the bulk of information written in long sentences and
paragraphs, synthesizing it into more important concepts or ideas in what you are
reading. Here is an example:
3 Basic Qualities of a Good Research Writing
1. CLARITY– it is a quality of keeping a clear content in writing that helps readers follow
and comprehend much easily. This includes a smooth line of thought to be followed
by the readers not missing the whole topic by talking about things which are not
necessary. In order to achieve clarity, you must have a good command of the
language required in the paper. It is also necessary to spell out uncommon

13
abbreviations and references. It is important to know these two: coherent writing
and cohesive writing. They can only be achieved if you know what coherence and
cohesion are.
● COHERENCE –is the logical bridge between words, sentences and paragraphs. It
uses devices to connect ideas within each sentence and paragraph.
● COHESION -concerns with the flow of sentences from one to another. It
involves the tying together of new and old information. When
we write academic essays, particularly in the humanities, we work hard to
foster smooth flow of structures, which enhances a reader's understanding
of ideas.
2. VALIDITY - is the quality of having a sound basis of logic in facts. Something is
valid when it is true and correctly supported by evidence. In conducting a
research, it is important to set it right from the beginning.
3. RELIABILITY– it is the degree to which the result of a measurement is exact or
accurate and can be proven by repeating the measurement or procedure,
eventually giving you the same result. It is very important that there is no
alteration of the result the way a researcher wanted the result to be. It should
be authentic as presented. Reliability is synonymous to credibility that tells how
honest you are in acknowledging the sources of information too.

Comparing & Contrasting Viewed Materials with other Sources

Questions:
1. Is this logo familiar to you?
2. What videos do you usually watch in this platform?
3. Do you find all videos in this platform informative?
Why or why not?
4. In what way can you use this platform in giving out
accurate information?
Every day as we make choices or express our preference on what food to eat, which
restaurant to dine, what clothes to wear or what movies to watch, most often than not
we compare and contrast. For comparing and contrasting to successfully happen, two
things must be placed side by side to see the differences and similarities of these two
things in particular. In the case of comparing and contrasting informative text presented
in different media, print, stream or even broadcast, you can evaluate them in the aspect
of presenting the content. Was it done in a way that the audience can better understand?
Comparing- evaluating by getting the similarities of two things Contrasting-
evaluating by getting the differences of two things
Usually comparing and contrasting may go as far as evaluating elements, features,
characteristics, origin, purpose and the like.

Exactly 100 days have passed since the first confirmed COVID-19 case was announced
in the Philippines on 30 January 2020, with a 38-year old female from Wuhan testing
positive for the novel coronavirus. On the same day, on the other side of the world at
the WHO headquarters in Geneva, WHO activated the highest level of alert by declaring
COVID-19 as a public health emergency of international concern.
The Philippine government mounted a multi-sectoral response to the COVID-19,
through the Interagency Task Force (IATF) on Emerging Infectious Diseases chaired by
the Department of Health (DOH). Through the National Action Plan (NAP) on COVID-19,
the government aims to contain the spread of COVID-19 and mitigate its socioeconomic
impacts.
The Philippines implemented various actions including a community quarantine in
Metro Manila which expanded to Luzon as well as other parts of the country; expanded
its testing capacity from one national reference laboratory with the Research Institute
of Tropical Medicine (RITM) to 23 licensed testing labs across the country; worked
towards ensuring that its health care system can handle surge capacity, including for
financing of services and management of cases needing isolation, quarantine and
hospitalization; and addressed the social and economic impact to the community
including by providing social amelioration to low income families. The World Health
Organization (WHO) has been working with Ministries of Health worldwide to prepare
and respond to COVID-19. In the Philippines, WHO country office in the Philippines and
its partners have been working with the Department of Health and subnational
authorities to respond to the pandemic. The country level response is done with support
from the WHO regional office and headquarters.
