Reading the Printed Text book📖

Visible to anyone in the world

I have been exploring  L185 module block 1,  now that the induction course has started and I am  impressed with the  L185 printed book   'Resource Texts'   📖

Everything looks clear and well laid out. I have nearly read all of  Block 1,  in the printed text book but I haven't yet done all the exercises yet just getting the overall gist and feel of the different Texts.

I will be keeping a journal in my digital notebook as well as reporting on my blog from time to time.
📕✒ ✍
Any new or unfamiliar vocabulary I will type in my digital notebook too.  A lot of words are academic vocabulary, and many are unfamiliar to me. I use my dictionary and online dictionaries to find out the meaning of these words.

Even though English is my first language there are some words in these texts that I have never heard of before.

I am trying to understand the facts and meaning of the texts. Who was the author? What are they saying?  Why are they writing this? When was it written?  Where was it written? How was it written?
❓❓❓❓❓❓

These are the questions I will be asking myself as I read the texts. 

Looking forward to this module, to meeting my Tutor and fellow students. 👋
