To appreciate how texts are constructed and that they are constructed differently for different purposes, audiences and contexts.
To understand why texts are different because of the audience, purpose and contexts they are created for.
Context means the situation or environment in which a piece of writing is created, which includes the ideas, beliefs, experiences, and values that the author had and/or that were around at that time and place.
Audience refers to the people who read the writing and their specific ideas, beliefs, experiences, and values, which are influenced by things like culture, gender, education, age, income, and interests.
Purpose means the reason why something was made or done - why it exists.
