IB TEXT: SET OF GUIDELINES STRUCTUREVersión en línea Find the elements expected in a set of guidelines IB text type. por Dany León Rodriguez 1 Rationale 2 Title or guidelines heading 3 Use of imperatives with not pronouns 4 Sections or sub-titles 5 Numeration, list or bullet points 6 Formal to semi-formal language 7 Conclusion Explanation 1 It usually explains why the guidelines are needed and how they relate. 2 Unlike other texts, a guideline heading must be specific and direct. NO NEED to be creative or grasping. 3 Imperatives are just the verbs in the base form ( No -ing, or to). When it's negative it is always used DON'T. We use them to give the instructions or suggestions. 4 Subtitles don't have to be in imperatives. They're usually short and specific, though. 5 There is no difference which you decide to use but an organisation in numbers, bullet points, letters, etc is a MUST. 6 Language may vary from formal to semi-formal language as in the example. Emojis, double exclamation marks or others are expected. Academic language is not necessary. 7 Conclusions are not expected, since the aim of a set of guidelines is give instructions or suggestions. Yet, it is acceptable to close the list explaining the benefits or the positive aspects that following the guidelines will bring.
