1 THEA OBJECTIVE #4 Idea Relationships I and II

2 the manner in which the author organizes his or her information.

3  Time order Pattern (sequence)  Addition pattern (list)  Compare-Contrast Pattern  Cause /Effect Pattern  Definition/example pattern (illustration)  Problem/Solution Pattern

4 Sequence Pattern(time)- The ideas presented by the author must be in order. List Pattern ( addition)-In this pattern, the author organizes his/her information by making a list. This list does not need to be in any order. Definition Pattern ( illustration) -In this pattern, the author defines a particular term, idea, or concept and follows it with examples. Cause – Effect Pattern -The author explains the reason why something happened or the results of something. (the cause happens first!) Compare-Contrast Pattern -This pattern shows how two things are alike and how they are different,or both. Problem – Solution- a problem is presented and either a solution or a possible solution is given

5 COMPARE-CONTRAST PATTERN  Comparison: how 2 things are alike  Contrast: how they are different

6 TRANSITION WORDS THAT HELP Page 222 (green book) Page 266 (red book) Mark It!

7 Transitions are words or phrases (like another) that show relationships between ideas. They are “bridge” words, carrying the reader across from one idea to the next:

8 LIST PATTERN-MORE TRANSITION WORDS  characteristics,  elements,  features,  types,  ways  letters (a, b, c) or bullets to list information

9 CHAPTER 4 Relationships I A Note on Main Ideas and Patterns of Organization A paragraph’s main idea often indicates its pattern of organization. Paying close attention to the main idea can give you a quick sense of a paragraph’s pattern of organization.

10 CHAPTER 4 Relationships I / Two Final Points Patterns of Organization 2Remember that not all relationships between ideas are signaled by transitions. As you read, watch for the relationships themselves, not just the transitions. An author may present a list of items, for example, without using addition words. READ the PASSAGE, don’t just look for key words!

11 CAUSE/EFFECT -WHICH IS WHICH? Cause Effect

12 Many students find it difficult to make the transition from high school to college. In high school, teachers often treat students like children. For instance, teachers may require homework to be done in a certain color ink, or they may call parents when children misbehave. On the other hand, college teachers treat students as adults. No one other than the students themselves is expected to take responsibility for learning. Also, adjusting to greater independence can be a challenge for many college freshmen. Students in high school usually live at home. In college, however, many students live on their own and have no one to answer to or depend on but themselves.

13 1 Psychologists use several theories to explain different sides of human behavior. 2 Best-known is the psychoanalytic theory, which holds that people are driven largely by needs and desires that they are not aware of—the so-called “subconscious” mind. 3 Another theory, behaviorism, suggests that people’s actions are based largely on past experiences of reward and punishment. 4 We do things that brought us pleasant results in the past and avoid things that brought unpleasant results. 5 Yet another theory, “gestalt” psychology, emphasizes the role of overall patterns in our thinking. 6 For example, we find it much easier to remember a tune than a series of unconnected musical notes.

14 1 Projection is an unconscious process of seeing one’s own shortcomings in others. 2 For example, a greedy shop owner may cheat many of his customers, yet consider himself a pillar of the community and a good Christian. 3 How does he justify to himself his greed and dishonesty? 4 He believes that everyone who enters his store is bent on cheating him any way he or she can. 5 In reality, few, if any, of his customers share his motives, but he projects his own greed and dishonesty onto them.

15 About 5% of all babies born alive, or 175,000 babies per year, have a significant defect. Such birth defects account for about 15% of deaths among newborns. Recall from the genetics chapters that birth defects may be caused by genetic as well a environmental factors, or by a combination of the two. According to the selection, which of the following is a result of birth defects? a.Fifteen percent of newborns die b.Five percent of babies born alive have significant birth defects c.Poor social development results.
