Write/present/sign for a wide range of contexts US

This unit standard will be useful to learners who communicate confidently and fluently in writing/signing in almost any formal and informal situation. Competence at this level will help learners to analyse and make mature judgements about complex, human, personal, social and environmental issues and to express and motivate own opinions.

Learners at this level write/sign expressively and with conviction on topics of interest. They cope well with the exploration of complex themes and issues in a variety of writing/signing styles that stimulate and maintain the interest of their readers/audience. Through a drafting and editing process their writing/signing shows significant improvement.

They carefully scrutinise their own and others' writing/signing in terms of its impact on different audiences and contexts. They are also able where possible to use multi-media technologies to present rather than write/sign own texts.

Learners credited with this unit standard are able to:
Write/sign effectively and creatively on a range of topics
Choose language structures and features to suit communicative purposes
Edit writing/signing for fluency and unity.
