Iago manipulates several characters in Shakespeare's Othello through exploiting their weaknesses and sowing seeds of doubt.

He uses Cassio's pride and desire to regain his position to further implicate Cassio in his schemes. Iago is a master manipulator who is able to gain people's trust while covertly influencing their thoughts and actions to suit his own malicious ends.

Linda Rubens discusses her experience flipping her English classroom. She found that having students prepare for lessons by watching short videos and completing assignments online before class allowed her to start lessons at the point of least understanding. This flipped approach led to more engaged students who took ownership of their learning. Exam results also improved, with students needing less teacher help and demonstrating they had not lost their handwriting skills. Overall, flipping her classroom provided benefits like a quiet, settled class and success with differentiated teaching and learning.Cyclone presentation 2012
