Explicit and Implicit

Claims in Written Texts


 Implicit information = implied information
 Implicitinformation is understood but it is
not stated. To find implicit information in
what is read, you will have to think about
what you read. Look for clues as you read.
 Implicitinformation is not written, but the
idea is there, implicit information is using
what is read to make an inference. But what
is an inference?
 As a critical reader, you may encounter texts
that exhibit specific claims.
 Some can be directly stated while others can
be mentioned indirectly.
 Itis important to know how you can identify
them and how you can distinguish the type of
claims a written text has. These are the key
concepts and skills you have to learn in this
lesson.
Lesson 1 CLAIM OF FACT

Claims
are synonymous to belief, argument,
assertion, or stand. According to
(Tiongson 2016, 20-21), a good claim
should be argumentative and debatable,
specific and focused, interesting and
engaging, and logical.
These information can be explicit or
implicit.
An explicit claim is directly and clearly
stated in the text. It is when you can
easily point out the information in the
passage.
Observing behavior as it occurs.
Meanwhile, an implicit claim is
indirectly expressed in the text
and you need to look for clues or
make inferences to understand its
meaning.
Observing the effect or result of
the behavior.
There are three types of claims in
written texts.

One of which is the CLAIM OF FACT.


Simply, this claim is a statement that reports,
describes predicts, make causal claims, or
whether something is a settled fact.

LESSON 2 CLAIM OF POLICY

Claim of policy
 is the argument where actions should be carried out.
Basically, it is perceived as a relatively direct
statement.
 This claim can also be called claim of solution
 because it suggests and supports policies and
solutions, and the action to be taken is based on the
results. You will know if a statement is a claim of
policy if there is an action to be done or a solution to
be taken.
Example
 Legislationshould be passed to stop the
sale of cigarettes.
A dress code should be introduced for all
public high schools.
Lesson 3 CLAIM OF VALUE
Claim of value
is an argument based on morality, belief, ethics, or philosophy. It is
influentially stated by combining limited facts and proving them as
either good or bad by targeting the reader’s emotion.
It is also called claim of judgment
because the reader has to decide whether the argument or
proposition is right or wrong or has to be accepted or rejected. In
other words, this type of claim is more appealing to the reader’s
subjectivity.
If the argument challenges the decision making or judgment leading
to acceptance or rejection of the reader, then it is considered to be
a claim of value.
Answer the riddle to reveal the mystery word.

formed me in school.
