Understanding Explicit and Implicit Information in Texts

The video tutorial revisits the objectives of recognizing explicit and implicit information in texts. It explains how to identify explicit information by reading, analyzing questions, and highlighting relevant text. An example is provided to illustrate the process. The tutorial then covers implicit information, which requires inference using prior knowledge and text clues. Another example is given to demonstrate this. The video concludes by encouraging students to continue with related activities.
