ACTIVITY 3: PROCEDURES
Welcome
to Learning Activity 3
In Learning Activity 3, you will learn
procedural texts. Procedure text is a text which describes how something
is achieved through a sequence of actions or steps. It explains how people perform
different processes in a sequence of steps. Procedures may be spoken,
written or visual. These may involve physical activity, mental thought or
emotional behaviour. There are different types of procedure
texts serving different purposes. Procedures can instruct how to do a
particular activity or help people teaching appropriate behaviour.
Procedure normally takes the form of directions or instructions.
In this learning activity, you learn how to give
instructions effectively through procedure texts. To do so, firstly, you will
be exposed to some examples of procedure texts and analize the parts of each of
the procedure text. You will learn how different structures in procedure texts
are present to meet their social purposes. Special discussion on infinitive
complement will help you write tips or warning that might be usefull when you
write procedure texts

Learning Materials
Learning materials in this activity will be divided into two main sections;
Key Features of The Text and Meaning Making Task. Study them carefully and do
each of the tasks that follows.
Key Features of Procedure Texts
Procedure Texts
Social Function
To describe how something is accomplished through a
sequence of actions or steps.
Generic Structure
- Goal
- Materials
(not required for all procedural texts)
- Steps 1
– n (i.e. goal followed by a series of steps oriented to achieve the
goal)
Significant Lexicogrammatical Features
- Focus
on generalized human agents
- Use of
simple present tense, often imperative
- Use
mainly of temporal conjunctions (or numbering to indicate sequence)
- Use
mainly of material processes
Meaning Making Tasks
This section
is divided into two parts. The first part, Getting to KnowProcedure Texts,
includes a number of Tasks in which you will be guided to analyse
(1) the
social functions,
(2) the text structures, and
(3) the lexicogrammatical
features of procedure texts from three different contexts of situation.
The
second part, Producing Procedural Texts. In this part you will write a
procedure text and record yourself performing the procedural instruction
