This is my third English assessment and I’m so grateful that I was given an opportunity to discuss my topic, transportation system, in series of academic writing pieces. In this assessment, I learn how to construct an essay and to create a bridge that connects my ideas that are separated in different texts.
There are five different text types that I need to work on after I choose my topic, which are compare and contrast, reaction or opinion, research, persuasive and a reflection. To make it understandable by everyone, I decided to make a sort of storyline. I introduce my problem, which is traffic jams in Jakarta, through my compare and contrast essay. I continued in discussing traffic jams in my opinion partial essay where I stated my own opinion towards Jakarta’s traffic complication.
Rather than talking about traffic problems only, I also suggest the solution to solve traffic jams by building MRT in Jakarta. I compose it into two different text types, which are research partial essay and a persuasive visual text. I planned to offer the proof how effective is MRT for Jakarta through my research essay and persuade the Government of Jakarta to implement this system in the city.
By doing this assessment, I could learn two different things. First, I learn how technological advances really support humans to be a highly mobilized creature through the development of transportation system. Second, I learn that all topics have the same difficulty level and I’m sure that my portfolio is not graded based on my topic but based on my academic writing skills. That is the importance of writing, which is to deliver a topic to others so they could understand the same thing as I am.
