“The teachers are afraid of their pupils”, by Morrisey
There's too many people
Planning your downfall
When your spirit's on trial
These nights can be frightening
Sleep transports sadness
To some other mid-brain
And somebody here
Will not be here next year
So you stand by the board
Full of fear and intention
And, if you think that they're listening
Well, you've got to be joking
Oh, you understand change
And you think it's essential
But when your profession
Is humiliation
Say the wrong word to our children
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Source: The teachers are afraid of their pupils, as sung by
Morrisey, 1995. Available on: https://genius.com/Morrissey-the-teachers-are-afraid-of-the-pupils-lyrics

A lawyer used ChatGPT to prepare a court filing. It went horribly awry.
A lawyer who relied on ChatGPT to prepare a court filing on behalf of a man suing an airline is now all too familiar with the
artificial intelligence (AI) tool’s shortcomings — including its propensity to invent facts.
Roberto Mata sued Colombian airline Avianca last year, alleging that a metal food and beverage cart injured his knee on a
flight to Kennedy International Airport in New York. When Avianca asked a Manhattan judge to dismiss the lawsuit based on the
statute of limitations, his lawyer submitted a brief based on research done by ChatGPT.
While ChatGPT can be useful to professionals in numerous industries, including the legal profession, it has proved itself to be
both limited and unreliable. In this case, the AI invented court cases that didn’t exist, and asserted that they were real. The fabrications
were revealed when Avianca’s lawyers approached the case’s judge, saying they couldn’t locate the cases cited in Mata’s lawyers’
brief in legal databases.
“It seemed clear when we didn’t recognize any of the cases in their opposition brief that something was amiss,” said the
airline’s lawyer. And soon they figured it was some sort of chatbot of some kind. On the other hand, the passenger’s lawyer said that
it was the first time he’d used ChatGPT for work and, therefore, he was unaware of the possibility that its content could be false.

The passenger who sued the airline company because of an incident that happened during his flight is Colombian.

2023 Theme
Green Skills for Youth: Towards a Sustainable
World
Today, the world is embarking on a green transition.
The shift towards an environmentally sustainable and
climate-friendly world is critical not only for
responding to the global climate crisis but also for
achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
A successful transition towards a greener world will
depend on the development of green skills in the
population. Green skills are “knowledge, abilities,
values and attitudes needed to live in, develop and
support a sustainable and resource-efficient society”.
These include technical knowledge and skills that
enable the effective use of green technologies and
processes in occupational settings, as well as
transversal skills that draw on a range of knowledge,
values and attitudes to facilitate environmentally
sustainable decisions in work and in life. Due to their
interdisciplinary nature, the essence of green skills is
sometimes expressed, partly if not wholly, through
other associated terms such as “skills for the future”
and “skills for green jobs”. While green skills are
relevant for people of all ages, they have heightened
importance for younger people, who can contribute to
the green transition for a longer period of time.

Communicative Language Teaching aims broadly to
apply the theoretical perspective of the
Communicative Approach by making communicative
competence the goal of language teaching and by
acknowledging the interdependence of language and
communication. What this looks like in the
classroom may depend on how the tenets are
interpreted and applied. Nevertheless, we will follow
our usual way of und erstanding the theor y and
ussocia rcd practices by visiting a class in which a
form of Communicative Language Teaching is being
practiced. The class we will visit is one being
conducted for adult immigrants to Canada . These
twenty people have lived in Canada for two years
and are at a high-intermediate level of English
proficiency. They meet two evenings a week for two
hours each class.

The latest evolution of The Color Purple story is coming to the
big screen soon—and as the premiere gets closer and closer,
we’re getting more sneak peeks into that magic!
Oprah has joined forces with Steven Spielberg, Quincy Jones,
and Scott Sanders to bring The Color Purple musical—which
premiered on Broadway in 2005—to life. “To reinvent the
movie at this time is to reinvent a phenomenon,” says Oprah.
The film has an official release date: December 25, 2023—so
that’s your post-Christmas plans, sorted.
In 1985, Oprah made her acting debut as Sofia in Spielberg’s
adaptation of Alice Walker’s novel—and earned an Academy
Award nomination. Oprah said she felt “deep down joy” while
filming The Color Purple. “Being in that movie changed
everything for me. I was doing work that I loved, and I was
surrounded by others who were equally passionate. I was so
happy every day,” she said.
Oprah calls Walker’s seminal novel, first published in 1983, one
of the “national anthems for women’s empowerment.” Celie,
the protagonist of The Color Purple, endures the unimaginable
while growing up in rural Georgia—and triumphs, thanks in part
to the support of the book’s other women protagonists, Sofia
and Shug Avery.
IT’S ONE OF THE NATIONAL ANTHEMS FOR WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT. —OPRAH
In addition to the talented cast and crew of actors and singers (more on that below), the 2023 film is directed by
Blitz Bazawule (who also helmed Beyoncé’s Black Is King). Marcus Gardley (The Chi) wrote the script, which Oprah
says is now infused with a kind of magical realism: “We get to see and feel what’s going on in Celie’s imagination.”
Oprah was deeply invested in 2023’s The Color Purple, including choosing the perfect person for each role. Here
are her thoughts on the casting choices and everything else you need to know about this next evolution of The
Color Purple.
