In a science camp, students were given the task to observe and
describe different animals. They used several adjectives such as
'fierce', 'gentle', 'noisy', and 'quiet' to characterize the behaviors of
the animals they encountered. Considering the adjectives 'slow'
and 'fast', which are used to describe the speed of an action or
event, how would you describe a snail's movement compared to a
cheetah's sprint using these adjectives in your observations at the
science camp?

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.

TEXT:
Mistakes help you learn
Maija Kozlova
May 19, 2021
It is not uncommon for English language lessons to favour
communication over accuracy: real life is nothing like a
classroom! In real-life situations, when you make a mistake in the
language you are learning, context provides ample information
as to what the intended message is. In fact, most of the time,
impeccable accuracy is not needed at all! “Don’t worry about
making mistakes,” I used to tell my English language students.
“Communicating is the most important thing!”
While making mistakes when trying to master a language might
seem counter-intuitive, letting learners freely communicate
and negotiate meaning is key to success. A learner who
communicates a lot while making a few mistakes is much more
likely to develop confidence for dealing with real-life situations
than a learner who communicates very little because they’re
afraid of making any. In communicative language teaching, for
example, the teacher is tasked with both encouraging the learner
to express themselves and with providing corrective feedback in
a way that is not obstructive to communication.
This means that if a learner says, “I go swimming last night,”
it is much more effective to respond with, “Oh, that’s nice, you
went swimming. What did you do after?” rather than, “No! You
went swimming! Use past simple for past events!” – the former
encourages the learner to continue their narrative while the latter
is much more likely to make the learner stop in their tracks,
re-evaluate the context, and think twice before expressing
themselves again in the future, for the fear of making a mistake
again. Teachers need to be careful not to parrot back everything
the students say in this manner, of course, but the technique
can be an effective method of acknowledging the content of a
student’s response, while also providing feedback on accuracy.
The importance of the freedom to make mistakes in language
learning is also supported by research in psychology, which
suggests that learners who try a task without having mastered
it completely experience improved retention of new information.
A similar experiment in the context of language learning also
indicates that the process of making mistakes activates a greater
network of related knowledge in the brain, which leads to superior
learning outcomes.
It is believed that the key to help learners feel relaxed and ready
for communicating freely in the classroom is authenticity. This
means that there should be both a real communicative need for
a learner to speak and the authentic reaction from those around
to what the learner has said.
Here are a few ways of how such authentic communicative
interactions can be practiced in the classroom:
• surround learners with the English language – encourage
them to speak to you and each other in English;
• don’t worry about diverging from topics that are not strictly
covered in your lesson plan;
• model communication by telling your students stories and
anecdotes about your own life and encourage them to do
the same;
• let your learners have fun with English – give them colloquial
expressions to try and ask them to share some expressions
;
• do not overcorrect – make a note of errors and cover it in
subsequent lessons;
• avoid the temptation to turn what was intended as speaking
practice into a full-on grammar lesson.
While easier said than done, especially when the outcome of an
exam is at stake, it is worth remembering that people that our
learners might come to interact with outside of the classroom
are driven by the natural desire to understand the people they
communicate with. This is especially powerful when practiced in
the context of a classroom. They set the learners up for success
in real-life communication. In other words, when communication
is the goal, mistakes are secondary, and that’s real life, isn’t it?

Tracy Chou is a 31-year-old programmer — and “an
absolute rock star,” as her former boss Ben Silbermann, the CEO
and co-founder of Pinterest, once said. Yet for all her street cred,
Chou still finds herself grappling with one of the biggest
problems in the industry: Female programmers are regarded
skeptically, and sometimes even treated with flat-out hostility.
She’s seen the same pattern of behavior personally during her
decade in coding: colleagues who muse openly about whether
women are biologically less wired to be great programmers.
There’s a deep irony here — because women were in
computing from its earliest days. Indeed, they were considered
essential back when “computers” were not even yet machines.
Just before the digital age emerged, computers were humans.
And for a time, a large portion of them were women.
Soon, the human computers faced an even more
existential threat: digital computers, which promised to work
with far greater speed and to handle complex math.
Women, though, were among the original coders of these
strange new digital brains, because in the early days
programming was seen as dull work. The earliest programmers
for the Eniac — the military-funded first programmable
general-purpose computer — were entirely women. And though
they wound up inventing brilliant coding techniques, they
received none of the glory: When the Army showed off the Eniac
to the press, it did not introduce the women who had written
the code.

In many parts of the world colonial hegemony has
resulted in the dominance of the coloniser's language at the
expense of native languages. The suppression of indigenous
languages is intricately connected with mental health problems.
Indigenous youth with less knowledge of their native language
are six times more likely to have suicidal ideation than those
with greater language knowledge. Language suppression impairs
self-identity, wellbeing, self-esteem, and empowerment.
Just as language extinction can affect mental health, so
can reinstating a language. Aboriginal youth who are capable of
speaking their native language are less likely to consume alcohol
or use illicit substances at risky amounts, and are less likely to be
exposed to violence. Moreover, knowledge of indigenous
languages is associated with a decrease in youth suicide by 50% a
year.
The digital recording of indigenous languages might be
useful for documentation, restoration, promotion, and education.
Sufficient fund allocation is required to recover and store the
alphabets of indigenous languages. Separate indigenous language
educational institutes, in which researchers and mental health
professionals can work in cooperation, are also extremely
necessary. These concerted efforts might help result in the
renewal of a given indigenous language and potentially reduce
mental health problems.

How trade can become a gateway to climate resilience
Most people don't think about climate change when they lift a café latte to their lips or nibble on a square of chocolate — but this could soon change.
Based on current trajectories, around a quarter of Brazil’s coffee farms and 37% of Indonesia’s are likely to be lost to climate change. Swathes of Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire — where most of the world’s chocolate is sourced — will become too hot to grow cocoa by 2050.
Climate-related droughts and deadly heatwaves across the world have coincided with severe storms, cyclones, hurricanes, and, of course, a pandemic. As a consequence of these shocks, millions of people have been left without homes, and a growing number of people now face starvation and a total collapse of livelihoods as growing and exporting staple crops becomes untenable.
We must immediately rethink the shape of our economies, agricultural systems and consumption patterns. Our priority is to manufacture climate resilience in global economies and societies — and we must do it quickly.
Trade can kickstart the emergence of climate-resilient economies, especially in the poorest countries. Trade has a multiplier effect on economies by driving production growth and fostering the expansion of export industries. By shifting focus to production and exports that increase climate resilience, there is potential to exponentially increase the land surface and trade processes prepared to withstand the climate crisis.
