Language of Evaluation
“Look at this sentence. Your grammar is wrong here. You connected these two sentences with a comma, making a comma splice error. . .”
![Page 5: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Language of Description
“I see a comma error in this sentence, but I can show you how to easily correct it. See how these two main clauses are connected with just a comma? How could the sentence be revised?”
![Page 6: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Describe vs. Evaluate
Problem with language of evaluation:
Destructive “you” language
Solution with language of description:
Separate student from problem
![Page 7: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Control or Assist
![Page 9: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Language of Control
“Instead of using the word ‘eventuate,’ use ‘transpired.’ It works better and eventuate is just confusing.”
![Page 10: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Language of Assistance
“The word ‘eventuate is hard for me to understand in this sentence. Let’s look up the word and make sure it’s the one you want to use.”
![Page 11: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Control vs. Assist
Problem with language of control:
Ownership shifts to the tutor
Solution with language of assistance:
Student owns ideas and language
![Page 12: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Language of Manipulation
“You haven’t bothered to come to the last few meetings, so I wonder about your commitment [to the mentoring program].”
![Page 14: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Language of Facilitation
“We’ve missed you at our meetings lately. Let’s talk about it.
![Page 15: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Manipulate vs. Facilitate
Problem with manipulative language:
Creates negative feelings
Solution with facilitative language:
Acknowledges problem and creates space for problem-solving.
![Page 16: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Dimension 4
Superior Equal
![Page 17: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Language of Superiority
“So, in class we talked about the PC movement, and what you are saying is that forcing people to use politically correct terminology creates resentment. I remember when I used to think like that, too. Once we cover what all the movement entails, I’m sure you will understand the issue”
![Page 18: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Language of Equality
“So, in class we talked about the PC movement, and what you are saying is that forcing people to use politically correct terminology creates resentment. Can you tell me what ideas you will use to support your position? Then, I can give you some of the opposing viewpoints and you can refute them.”
![Page 19: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Superior vs. Equal
Problem: Tutor dominates the ideas
Solution: Tutor stimulates thought so students can actively participate
![Page 20: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Certainty
![Page 22: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Language of Certainty
“You didn’t mean to say that our justice system always makes fair and ethical decisions, right? I can assure you that the professor will count that wrong on the test.”
![Page 23: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Language of Possibility
“You just made an interesting comment about the judicial system that is different from the way it is presented in class. First, let’s consider the implication of the word ‘always.’ How does that word impact the meaning of your statement? Then, let’s think of ways you might provide your answer in an essay question format so that you can show the teacher that you understand the implications of your position.”
![Page 25: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Certain vs. Possible
Problem with language of certainty: Tutor knows answer and encourages the
banking model of education
Solution with language of possibility: Tutor encourages student understanding
and critical thinking. Inspires inquiry learning.
![Page 26: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Language of Indifference
“Dr. Smart E. Pants typically asks questions that she didn’t cover in class. To get a better grade next time, you’ll just need to study the questions at the end of the chapters more carefully.”
![Page 29: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Language of Empathy
“I don’t blame you for being upset and frustrated about your test grade. But now that you know the way Dr. Pants creates her exams, how do you think we can better prepare for the next exam?”
![Page 30: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Indifference vs. Empathy
Problem with language of indifference:
Dismisses student’s emotional reaction to grades
Solution with language of empathy:
Acknowledges feelings and emotions and keeps communication open
![Page 31: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Example 1: Evaluative Language
See right here? Your problem is that you didn’t write enough. You should have written more about the fall of the Roman Empire.
![Page 33: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Example 2: Controlling Language
You need to be focusing on how militaristic the Romans were, not on their artistic style.
![Page 34: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Example 3: Manipulative Language
If you’re not going to follow the study plan we created for you to use at home, then you can’t expect to do well in class.
![Page 35: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Example 4: Superior Language
Yeah, but there is scientific evidence that proves evolution occurred. What kind of evidence do you have?
![Page 36: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Example 5: Certain Language
Surely you can see that morality is the theme of this story. There is no other interpretation that makes sense.
![Page 37: COLLEGE READING AND LEARNING ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE PORTLAND, OR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2007 Finding Common Ground: Peer Educators and the Gibb’s Communication.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/5697bfea1a28abf838cb77f9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Example 6: Indifferent Language
You’ll need to try harder to get a babysitter for your kids next time; otherwise you’ll just keep getting behind.
