Voice - 
1. The way in which a writer shows their own style, thoughts and opinions. (There 
is a longer explanation of the writer's voice in the 
essay writing
 section of this website.) 
2. Active/Passive. The active voice tells you what the subject of a sentence does (e.g. 
Robin 
started the group project
). The passive voice changes the focus of your sentence. You can use a 
passive when you want to emphasise the action itself, when the reader does not need to know 
who did an action, or when you do not want to emphasise who did an action. (There is a longer 
explanation of active and passive voice in the 
passive voice
 section of this website.)
