    Comprehension
    Identify journalist writing, identify an autobiography/biography, show how its descriptive/humorous/persuasive, describe the style of writing

    Personal Writing
    Hope for the best XD

    Functional Writing
    Instructions, Reports, Review, Letters, Speech, Promotional Brochure, Description of a Picture

    Media Studies
    Compare and decide which is more effective, who is the target audience, write a copy for an advertisement, write a radio advertisement, know disadvantages and advantages of different forms of media
