Writing Mediation Emails and Letters

This section provides guidance on crafting effective mediation emails and letters, emphasizing appropriate language and structure.

Email Writing Guidelines

Emails for mediation purposes should generally use informal language. Key elements include:

  • Friendly greetings like "Hey" or "I hope you're doing well"
  • Acknowledging the recipient's request for guidance
  • Referencing the source of information
  • Offering hope that the provided information is helpful
  • Closing with an invitation for further questions

Example: "I understand that you're looking for guidance on [topic]. I found an article called [title] that highlights [key points]. I hope these tips are helpful to you."

Letter Writing Approach

Letters follow a similar structure to emails but use more neutral language:

  • Begin with "Dear [Name]"
  • Maintain a slightly more formal tone throughout
  • Close with "Yours sincerely,"

Highlight: While letters and emails share structural similarities, letters generally adopt a more formal tone.

Mediation in Speeches, Blog Entries, and Articles

This page covers the specific approaches for mediating content into speeches, blog entries, and articles, each with its unique style and requirements.

Speech Mediation

Speeches can range from neutral to formal, depending on the audience. Key elements include:

  • Appropriate greetings based on the audience (e.g., "Welcome ladies and gentlemen")
  • Introduction of the speaker and topic
  • A clear conclusion with an invitation for questions

Example: "Good morning members of [group]. My name is [Name], and I'm here to discuss [topic]."

Blog Entry Mediation

Blog entries typically use informal to neutral language. They should:

  • Start with casual greetings like "Hey guys!" or "Hi everyone!"
  • Engage readers by inviting comments or opinions
  • Close with a friendly sign-off

Highlight: Blog entries often end with an invitation for reader engagement, such as "Let me know what you think by posting a comment below this entry."

Article Mediation

Articles require a more formal approach and must include:

  • A headline
  • An introduction with a hook to interest readers
  • A clear thesis statement
  • A conclusion that summarizes key points and provides future perspectives

Definition: A thesis statement is a sentence that summarizes the main point or argument of an article or essay.

General Mediation Advice

  • Always adapt your language and style to the target audience and text type

Format-Specific Tips

For Emails and Letters:

  • Consider adding a personal touch or advice at the end, e.g., "Take time choosing what to do in the future, it's a big step!"

For Speeches:

  • Practice your delivery to ensure a natural flow and appropriate pacing

For Blog Entries:

  • Use a conversational tone to engage readers and encourage interaction

For Articles:

  • Ensure your headline is attention-grabbing and relevant to the content

Mediation Structure and Key Principles

The document outlines the fundamental structure and key principles for effective mediation in language learning, focusing on various text types.

Introduction to Mediation

Mediation involves conveying information from one language to another, adapting content for different audiences and purposes. The guide emphasizes the importance of:

  • Stating the reason for writing
  • Identifying the topic and source material
  • Adapting the introduction based on the text type (e.g., email, letter, article, blog entry)

Highlight: The introduction should be tailored to the specific text type you're asked to write.

Main Body Guidelines

The main body of a mediation text should:

  • Avoid direct translation
  • Use your own words
  • Structure the content logically
  • Adapt language style (informal, formal, or neutral) to the text type
  • Maintain the original text's tense

Example: When mediating a formal article, use formal language and maintain a logical structure that may follow the chronology of the original text.

Conclusion and Cautions

The conclusion varies depending on the text type. Key cautions include:

  • Avoiding word-for-word translation
  • Focusing on the most important information
  • Staying on topic
  • Explaining culture-specific terms when necessary
  • Being aware of false friends in translation

Vocabulary: False friends are words in two languages that look or sound similar but have different meanings, e.g., "rent" in English is not equivalent to "die Rente" (pension) in German.
