Expression of ideas
Reading and Writing questions in the Expression of Ideas content domain are designed to test your ability to revise passages in order to
improve how information and ideas are conveyed. There are two main areas of focus in Expression of Ideas questions: selectively using and combining provided information and ideas in order to best meet a
specified rhetorical (writerly) goal and using the most logical transition word or phrase to connect information and ideas within a passage.

Important features 
Framing. The framing of the question, or how it's presented to you, asks you to approach this kind of question as if you were a student taking notes for an assignment. Although this framing isn't realy necessary to answering the question, it helps to show you how answering the question is like something you've done many times
already (and will continue to do) in your classes.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

Important features 
Bulleted list. The statements in the bulleted list represent the kinds of notes you might take as you read about a topic. Just like real notes,
this list includes information and ideas relevant to the specified writing goal and may include additional information and ideas that aren't particularly relevant to that goal. As the question itself reminds you, your job will be, in part, to distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information and ideas when answering. You can safely assume that
all the information and ideas in these notes are accurate, and therefore you won't be asked to distinguish what's true from what's not.

Slide 12 - Tekstslide

Important features 
Rhetorical goal. The rhetorical (writerly) goal specified in the question is critically important to pay attention to. There are many potential ways that the information and ideas in the question's bulleted list could be combined into asingle sentence, but only one of the four answer choices wil do so in a way that most effectively meets the specified goal.

Slide 13 - Tekstslide

Important features 
Answer choices. Each answer choice represents one possible way to use and combine information and ideas from the notes in the
bulleted list. Each sentence is grammatical, and you won't be tested on conventions of sentence structure, usage, and punctuation in this type of question. Instead, you'll have to carefully consider
the answer choices to determine which of them best meets the specified writerly goal.

Transition questions 
The other main type of Expression of Ideas question focuses on
transitions, or the logical links between information and ideas in
passages. nI real-world texts, transitions serve ot guide and smooth
readers' movement between and among sentences, paragraphs, and
larger sections of texts (such as chapters). nI the Reading and Writing
section, however, Transitions questions are focused on logical
connections between and among sentences in brief passages. Let's
study a Transitions example, returning to our strategy of analyzing the
underlying structure of a passage to examine the relationship between
the information and ideas presented and, more specifically, how the sentences themselves relate to one another.
