Non-native writing carries a considerable cognitive load.
It requires the writer to hold in conscious mind several types of linguistic representation:
-rhetorical structure-information structure-information-grammar/lexical unit knowledge
Cognitive load
![Page 8: Graphical Anchoring of Second Language Writing Task Lawrie Hunter Kochi University of Technology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e9d5503460f94b9dec9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Non-native writing carries a considerable cognitive load.
It requires the writer to hold in conscious mind several types of linguistic representation:
-rhetorical structure-information structure-information-grammar/lexical unit knowledge
If* some of these representation types can be encoded graphically, cognitive load** will be reduced.

Survey: graphical anchors
Today: several load-reducing graphical representations currently in use in the curriculum and materials designed by the author.
These representations provide writing task 'anchors' for
(a) information structures*(b) prescribed sentence patterns (c) rhetorical structures**(d) cohesion devices***

Even if the learner's main writing strategy is the lexical and structural mimicry of model texts, the above forms of graphical scaffolding can provide an external 'hands on the controls' work space.

The learning process used in this bookEach of the 6 units in this book follows the same teaching/learning pattern:
INPUT: the learners are exposed to the target vocabulary and phrases required for expression of the ideas which are basic to the genre in the unit. For input, the learners listen to explanations of the genre by the teacher, practice speaking and listening to sentences from the genre, and read various explanations of the genres language and language structure
USAGE PRACTICE: in each unit there are a succession of activities and tasks which allow the learner to practice using the language required for the genre. It is important to emphasize to the learners that the activities and exercises are necessary to prepare the students for the final large task at the end of each unit. The activities and tasks may be performed in several different modes: for example, as in-class activities (individual or group) or as written homework. This flexibility is important for the teacher, allowing for a variety of timings and paces.
AUTHENTIC TASK: the tasks at the end of the units are designed to be non-linguistic tasks, based in the real world. In some chapters the learners are asked to arrange information in certain structures; in other chapters the learners are asked to solve real-world type problems. These tasks may be done individually or in groups of 2, 3 or 4 learners.
EXPRESSION: the language aspect of the authentic tasks lies in the expression of the product of the task. In this book the tasks are written tasks, but they may also be done as pair or group presentations. The presentation approach is explained in detail in the teacher's guide .

Do humans have aGRAPHIC THOUGHT FACILITY?
The knowledge structure map is a matrix (confluence) for the situated learner* and the situated mentor to confirm context and the nature of "stolen property."**

Readability work
In the design of traditional high-text language learning materials, readability is a prominent concern.Reading difficulty has for some time been seen as depending on
-word length-sentence length-text length-number of sentences per paragraph-vocabulary ‘difficulty’
More recent work has extended this list to include -subject-verb distance -adherence to old/new position conventions-topic position/stress position conventions
Treated extensively inHunter L. (1998) Text Nouveau: Visible Structure in Text Presentation. Computer Assisted Language Learning 11(4) pp. 363-379.

Creating a PATTERN LANGUAGE
A pattern language?
...our lives consist mainly of patterns of events, and that architecture which supports these patterns helps us feel more “alive” and “whole.”
Christopher Alexander
![Page 81: Graphical Anchoring of Second Language Writing Task Lawrie Hunter Kochi University of Technology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e9d5503460f94b9dec9/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
…The language, and the processes which stem from it, merely release the fundamental order which is native to us. They do not teach us, they only remind us of what we know already, and of what we shall discover time and time again, when we give up our ideas and opinions, and do exactly what emerges from ourselves.
-Christopher Alexander, The Timeless Way of Building
