GOAL 2 The student will demonstrate the ability to compose in a variety of modes by developing content, employing specific forms, and selecting language appropriate for a particular audience and purpose. The following key terms merit elaboration and further explanation if a teacher is to implement this Core Learning Goal successfully. The word compose has been chosen deliberately because it embraces oral, written, and visual communication and facilitates an instructional emphasis on the common principles of communicating either separately or in combination via speech, writing, computer graphics, and video production. The term compose also alludes to the writing process, an instructional model in use within Maryland school systems for more than two decades. Furthermore, composing has natural applicability to such technologically essential skills as word processing and desktop publishing and describes more precisely than does the term writing what it is that students actually do when using a word processor. The term mode refers to rhetorical modes such as narration, exposition, and argumentation (persuasion). Specific prose and poetic forms include but are not limited to dialogue, letter, essay, couplet, quatrain, and free verse. Language choices are considered appropriate if they match the communicative context (i.e., the audience, topic, and purpose) of a given oral or written communication task. 1. Expectation 1: The student will compose oral, written, and visual presentations that inform, persuade, and express personal ideas.

GOAL 3 The student will demonstrate the ability to control language by applying the conventions of standard English in writing and speaking. The following key ideas merit elaboration and further explanation if a teacher is to implement this Core Learning Goal successfully. The ability to control language is contained in all of the English Core Learning Goals since language is one of the two content areas of a strong English curriculum. Language ability is important enough to focus on as a separate goal in addition to addressing it in other goals. Controlling language refers to the ability to make language choices that enhance the impression of the speaker or writer as well as enhance the credibility of the message. Control subsumes such behaviors as choosing, selecting, and manipulating language so that it is appropriate to an audience, occasion, and purpose. Standard English is a convenient term used to refer to the language of employability, that variety of spoken and written English on which employers often base hiring and promotion decisions. 1. Expectation: The student will demonstrate understanding of the nature and structure of language, including grammar concepts and skills, to strengthen control of oral and written language.
