A new scholarship aimed at developing the next
generation of artificial intelligence “pioneers” will open to
applicants in spring 2026, with the first cohort beginning studies
the following autumn.
The Sparck AI scholarships, named after pioneering
British computer scientist Karen Sparck Jones, will give master’s
degree university students access to industry-leading firms as the
Government looks to boost the UK’s AI credentials.
The University of Bristol will be one of nine universities
to offer the fully-funded Government scholarship, alongside
faculties in Newcastle, Manchester and Edinburgh.
The scheme has been developed in line with the
Government’s “AI Opportunities Action Plan”, receiving more
than £17 million of funding from Westminster, with the grant
covering both students’ tuition and living costs.
Alongside master’s places, 100 scholars will receive
placements in leading AI companies, as well as mentorship from
industry experts. It is hoped the scholarships will give students
“unparalleled access” to the fast-moving industry.
Vice-Chancellor Evelyn Welch said the scholarships
would give Bristol the chance to “explore bold new ideas and
nurture exceptional talent.” Technology Secretary Peter Kyle MP
said he believed the scheme would help students secure “highly
skilled jobs” and build “a workforce fit for the future.” AI talent
acquisition firm Beamery said the scholarships would help their
goal to create “equal access to work” and connect “talent to
opportunity”.

Over time, several methodologies have shaped
English Language Teaching (ELT), each with a
distinct view of how languages are learned and
taught. Regarding these methodologies, relate the
items in Column A to those in Column B and then
mark the alternative with the correct sequence.
Column A:
I. Audiolingual method II. Grammar translation method III. The direct method IV. The lexical approach
Column B:
( ) This method relied heavily on drills to form some habits; substitution was built into these drills so that, in small steps, the student was constantly learning and, moreover, was shielded from the possibility of making mistakes by the design of the drill.
( ) In this method, students were given (in their own language) explanations of individual points of grammar, and then they were given sentences which exemplified these points. These sentences had to be translated from the target language (L2) back to the students’ first language (L1) and vice versa.
( ) This method arrived at the end of the nineteenth century. It was the product of a reform movement which was reacting to the restrictions of grammar translation. Translation was abandoned in favor of the teacher and the students speaking together, relating the grammatical forms they should be learning to objects and pictures, etc. in order to establish their meaning.
( ) This method is based on the assertion that “language consists not of traditional grammar and vocabulary but often of multi-word prefabricated chunks”.

Literacy as a Multidimensional Concept
An emphasis on the development of literacy as a
fluid concept (Knobel and Lankshear, 2014) is one of
the most recent advances in twenty-first-century
education. To conceptualize literacy, the ability of the
learner to make use of language takes precedence in
typical Western educational systems. However, as
Kern highlights, “literacy is more than a set of
academic skills” (2000, 23). It varies depending on the
social context and is embedded in cultural practice
(Paesani et al. 2016).
Therefore, in order to define it, we must take into
consideration the set of resources, sociocultural
practices and competences––beyond reading and
writing––that enable student interaction, critical
thinking, the drawing of conclusions and the
application of knowledge to curricular areas and realworld situations (New London Group 1996; Kern
2000; American Association of School Librarians
(AASL) 2011; Cooper et al. 2012; Kucer 2014;
Paesani et al. 2016; Reyes-Torres 2018; Warner and
Dupuy 2018). As such, the multimodal training
approach that we propose for the FL class stems from
Kern’s notion of literacy, first, “as a process of creating
and transforming knowledge” (2000, 29), and second,
“as a matter of engaging in the ever-developing
process of using reading and writing as tools for
thinking and learning, in order to expand one’s
understanding of oneself and the world” (40). This
involves paying careful attention to language, while
also developing a critical awareness of the
relationships between texts, images, discourse
conventions and sociocultural and digital contexts.
In sum, and in consonance with Kern and other
scholars such as the NLG (1996), Steve Kucer (2014),
Maria Brisk (2015), Paesani et al. (2016) and Shari
Tishman (2018), we define literacy as a dynamic and
multidimensional concept whose main aim is to
provide twenty-first-century learners with the language
skills, visual thinking strategies and dialogic attitudes
that are necessary to develop the knowledge that
allows them to grasp and evaluate information,
organize ideas, exchange perspectives, construct
meaning and reflect critically on a variety of
sociocultural contexts. In order to foster such a
multidimensional approach to literacy in EFL and
implement it as an organizing principle (Kress 2010;
Serafini 2014), it is necessary that teachers become
acquainted with the three dimensions that both Kern
(2000) and Kucer (2014) acknowledge as the key
components: a) cognitive; b) conceptual; and c)
sociocultural.
These dimensions constitute a field of forces that
complement one another and are equally important in
the process of both teaching and learning, and they
also illustrate the multiple facets and fluid nature of
literacy.

Text V
Literacy as a Multidimensional Concept
An emphasis on the development of literacy as a
fluid concept (Knobel and Lankshear, 2014) is one of
the most recent advances in twenty-first-century
education. To conceptualize literacy, the ability of the
learner to make use of language takes precedence in
typical Western educational systems. However, as
Kern highlights, “literacy is more than a set of
academic skills” (2000, 23). It varies depending on the
social context and is embedded in cultural practice
(Paesani et al. 2016).
Therefore, in order to define it, we must take into
consideration the set of resources, sociocultural
practices and competences––beyond reading and
writing––that enable student interaction, critical
thinking, the drawing of conclusions and the
application of knowledge to curricular areas and realworld situations (New London Group 1996; Kern
2000; American Association of School Librarians
(AASL) 2011; Cooper et al. 2012; Kucer 2014;
Paesani et al. 2016; Reyes-Torres 2018; Warner and
Dupuy 2018). As such, the multimodal training
approach that we propose for the FL class stems from
Kern’s notion of literacy, first, “as a process of creating
and transforming knowledge” (2000, 29), and second,
“as a matter of engaging in the ever-developing
process of using reading and writing as tools for
thinking and learning, in order to expand one’s
understanding of oneself and the world” (40). This
involves paying careful attention to language, while
also developing a critical awareness of the
relationships between texts, images, discourse
conventions and sociocultural and digital contexts.
In sum, and in consonance with Kern and other
scholars such as the NLG (1996), Steve Kucer (2014),
Maria Brisk (2015), Paesani et al. (2016) and Shari
Tishman (2018), we define literacy as a dynamic and
multidimensional concept whose main aim is to
provide twenty-first-century learners with the language
skills, visual thinking strategies and dialogic attitudes
that are necessary to develop the knowledge that
allows them to grasp and evaluate information,
organize ideas, exchange perspectives, construct
meaning and reflect critically on a variety of
sociocultural contexts. In order to foster such a
multidimensional approach to literacy in EFL and
implement it as an organizing principle (Kress 2010;
Serafini 2014), it is necessary that teachers become
acquainted with the three dimensions that both Kern
(2000) and Kucer (2014) acknowledge as the key
components: a) cognitive; b) conceptual; and c)
sociocultural.
These dimensions constitute a field of forces that
complement one another and are equally important in
the process of both teaching and learning, and they
also illustrate the multiple facets and fluid nature of
literacy.

What's the Difference Between a Solstice and an Equinox?
You may know that the solstices and equinoxes
signal the changing of the seasons on Earth, but do you
remember which is which? Are they just different names for
the same thing? Actually, a solstice and an equinox are sort
of opposites.
The seasons on Earth change because the planet is
slightly tilted on its axis as it travels around the Sun. This
means different points on Earth receive more or less sunlight
at different times of year. If Earth were not tilted, the Sun
would always appear to be directly above the Equator, the
amount of light a given location receives would be fixed, and
there would be no seasons. There also would be no need to
mark equinoxes or solstices.
The two solstices happen in June (20 or 21) and
December (21 or 22). These are the days when the Sun’s
path in the sky is the farthest north or south from the
Equator. A hemisphere’s winter solstice is the shortest day
of the year and its summer solstice the year’s longest. In the
Northern Hemisphere the June solstice marks the start of
summer: this is when the North Pole is tilted closest to the
Sun, and the Sun’s rays are directly overhead at the Tropic of
Cancer. The December solstice marks the start of winter: at
this point the South Pole is tilted closest to the Sun, and the
Sun’s rays are directly overhead at the Tropic of Capricorn.
(In the Southern Hemisphere the seasons are reversed.)
The equinoxes happen in March (about March 21)
and September (about September 23). These are the days
when the Sun is exactly above the Equator, which makes day
and night of equal length.
