Flipped Instruction: Tone vs. Mood


Two of the most frequently confused words in the academic English classroom are tone and mood. For fifteen years, I have been been explaining this difference to my students. Now with the flipped instruction model, I can refer them to this video for homework, and in class we can work on identifying the difference in various passages.

  1. Yeah! I plan to use this with my students. I'm actually going through this year and trying to create initial passes at screencasts for ideas I want to capture on video and this one came up. I tried to put something together. Yours will work much better!

    There's a tone vs. mood paragraph on the first page of The Great Gatsby that I always discuss and I think this would put the students in a position to command that conversation instead of me.

    Thanks for posting this. I'll let you know how my students take to it.

  2. Awesome. I love how you have your conversation more student focused. I wish I got to teach Gatsby. That's for my students next year. At least I get Macbeth and Candide!

  7. This is quite a valuable list of suggestions! My evaluation of the results will undoubtedly include using them. A major advantage of the color blind test is its ability to detect color vision problems at an early stage. By detecting early, we can provide prompt intervention and appropriate assistance, resulting in improved educational outcomes and a broader understanding of the world. This test also allows for the distinction between other types of color blindness, such as red-green or blue-yellow deficiencies, allowing for customized therapies and adjustments.

  9. There may be a need for structural reinforcement when masonry damage is brought on by structural problems like settling or foundation new mailbox movement.

Assignment #1: Introduce Yourself

As I mentioned in my previous post, the first thing I do in class is have my students write and deliver two minute introductions. Obviously it gives me a sense of their writing and presentation skills, but more importantly it allows me to know who they are. Here's the prompt I give them: Your first formal assignment is to compose and present a short introduction so I may better get to know you. I'm only looking for a two minute introduction. I would like you to type it out and then read it to the class. Make sure you save your work somewhere because I'm going to ask you to post it in your portfolio (more on that later). I'd like to get a sense of who you are and what your voice is. Not sure what to write? No problem ... here are some ideas to help get you started: What are you passionate about? What are some of your goals for the year? For your life? What is the most important physical object in your life? (take a photo of it and bring it to class) What is y...
