Explicit Meaning tutorial
Learn how to review Explicit Meaning results.
This service is in development. These lessons and examples describe the planned workflow. Interactive exercises are not available yet.
- Start with a short passage. Identify the people, action, conditions and exceptions you want to review.
- Compare each restatement with the source. If several readings change what someone could do, keep them separate.
- Answer a clarification only when you know the intended meaning. Accept a restatement only after reviewing it; acceptance does not authorize an action.
