During the transfer activity, the information remains the same, but the form of information changes, for instance, from non-linguistic form to linguistic form and so forth.

can develop their language skill. For example, when the learners are provided
with information in the form of table or diagram, they can be motivated or
stimulated to organize ideas or thoughts. It can be basic to produce a good writing, because for some learners it is difficult to find new ideas.

provided with series of activities, such as they are asked to look at the table carefully, find the content of information they get in the tabular form and finally asked to convert it into written form.
