Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can identify and analyse the effects of active and passive voice and consider in which circumstances which is more effective.

Show transcript
We might see active voice as more direct, concise and confident. We could see passive voice as less direct, more detached and objective. Potentially, we might see active voice as more appropriate in more persuasive writing circumstances. However, we might use passive voice if we want to avoid responsibility or make a complaint.
