...A GENRE ANALYSIS OF SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL STAFF MEETING MINUTES ABSTRACT Interest in genre analysis has increased over the years with studies done by several scholars such as Swales, Bhatia, Berkonkotter, Hyon, Bazerman, Miller, to mention just a few, on various genre ranging from the research article in general to letters. Studies on genre analysis into meeting minutes are however, very limited and so the aim of this study is to investigate the communicative purpose, schematic structure and lexico grammatical features which characterize this genre. Swales' (1990) rhetorical approach to genre analysis was used to investigate eighteen meeting minutes which revealed the occurrence of seven moves with each having its own communicative purpose and linguistic features which characterize the genre as a formal one. The study has implications for genre studies in the area of pedagogy and further research. Key words: genre, minutes, discourse, moves, steps, Ghana. 1.0 INTRODUCTION Minutes is a highly formal written genre situated in the domain of business discourse and is an official record and considered a legal document by auditors, IRS and the law courts. Oxford defines it as a written record of what is said and decided at a meeting. It is used by institutions, corporate bodies and varied organisations. Its main communicative purpose is to record and relay information to the members of that discourse community. It also gives members the platform to express their views and opinions...

...[ Tips for Excellent Minute Taking ] Ubiqus UK Cliffords Inn - Fetter Lane London EC4A 1LD t: 020 7269 0370 - f: 020 7405 9884 W: www.ubiqus.co.uk – E: infouk@ubiqus.com Tips for Excellent Minute Taking 1) Understand the meeting. Accuracy Meeting minutes have no value if they are not accurate. Names and terms, especially the organisation’s own jargon, must be spelled correctly. And if you are taking minutes without the backup of an audio recording, you need to get it right the first time in your notes: there is no second chance. It’s very difficult to take accurate notes if you are unfamiliar with what you’re hearing. Preparation A good minute taker will prepare him or herself ahead of the meeting. Make sure you understand the agenda and review related documents, such as minutes from previous meetings, related hearings or interviews. Based on these documents, build a glossary of names and terms. A good glossary makes minute taking easier, faster and more accurate. Some people believe that only someone from the same organisation - or even the same department can understand the meeting well enough to take accurate minutes. As independent minute takers, we find this simply isn’t true. In fact, many times someone less intimately connected to proceedings can actually take better notes. An outside minute taker will often be able to hear and record what was actually said, without "reading into" the connotations. A lot of organisations waste a lot of time reviewing...

...Review meeting minutes What strategies did you use to review the meeting minutes to ensure the information presented a true and accurate record of the discussions that occurred during the meeting? The below strategies were used to review the meeting minutes: * Thoroughly reading through all the information, rather than skimming. * Cross checking with other participants to ensure that collective memory was used and no details were left out. * Checking spelling and grammar; and * Referring to my own notes. | Detail the outcomes of your review regarding the accuracy of the information, spelling and grammar and the correct use of the template. Area | Review summary | Accuracy of information | The majority of information recorded was accurate, however, there were some dates which had been recorded the wrong way around. This could have been due to speed of discussion being too quick for the minute taker to keep up. | Spelling and grammar | Spelling could not be faulted, however, minutes were taken quickly, thereby causing grammatical errors.

...Creating a Meeting Agenda Creating a Meeting Agenda The agenda is the key to a successful meeting - it is the roadmap, the guide, the plan. Studies have shown that up to 70% of meetings either have no agenda or have a poor agenda which is not helpful. In this article, you will see that there are some steps which you can take to make sure your agenda will contribute to making your meeting more productive. There are also hidden advantages. If the agenda is well constructed, you will also spend less time in the meeting and more time actually doing the things the meeting determines need to be done! 1. Remember the key - the more detailed the agenda, the more focussed and generally, the shorter the meeting will be. 2. You cannot expect intelligent decisions if people do not have time to think through the issues before the meeting. Therefore, agendas need to be sent out in advance, not given out at the meeting. People who have genuine desire to reach the best decision, and people who are organised, always have their agendas distributed in time for people to give thought to the issues. 3. Adopt the strict policy that if an item is not on the agenda, it will not be discussed at the meeting. Do not allow items to be raised without notice. Allow only true emergency items to be exempt and allow no other exceptions. Organised people have no difficulty with this. It is only disorganised or "slack" people who object to this because they cannot get...

...Describe appropriate methods of written communication in different business contexts Minutes In our meeting I used minutes of meeting to record what happened during the meeting A minute is an official proceeding of a meeting or conference. The function of minutes that I used was basically to take minutes down in minutes of meeting I used it to outline the topics that was spoken about. The minute’s records what went on in the meeting, either in the order that it was actually said or in a more rational order? Secretary or personal assistants would be the ones normally taking down the minutes. Taking down minutes depends on how long the meeting is going for they can vary from minutes to hours. The reason why I used minutes is because it is one of the best methods of written communication is because if a member couldn’t attend our meeting then instead of word of mouth the I could have passed on the proceedings on to the member who weren’t able to attended the meeting. The reason why the minutes was the most appropriate way is because I was able to record what happened during the meeting while writing up the minutes unlike any other methods where I would have to wait after the meeting the write up but using the minutes reminded me of what happened during the meeting Letter I used a letter to inform Christ the King college about a new initiative of personalized printing when I wrote a letter I included some key information like: • Date & Sender's Address • Recipient's...

You may search the Internet to assist in your debate. Your company has recently added new technical products to its sales line. The CEO has communicated that all employees are to complete a skills audit to find out who has knowledge and skills with the new products. The CEO expects all personnel to be fully au fait with the new products within 4 weeks (and asks you to decide how this will happen!). OPTION 1 - Your team decides that training employees is time consuming and costly and that the CEO should offer redundancy to unskilled employees - then recruit for people who already have the skills and who can start work immediately.
