Whether you like it or loathe it, public speaking is something many of us have to do. Be it presentations to colleagues or speeches to a room full of near-strangers, we all want to shine…or at least get through it with our dignity intact. Luckily Philip Collins, former Chief Speech Writer to Tony Blair, knows exactly what’s needed to give a storming speech. The secret, according to Philip, is content.

The secret to memorable, polished speeches is to think more about the material you’re sharing.

Donna Quesada had been teaching for about a dozen years when the first signs of burnout hit her. Rather than give into her frustration, she reached for Buddha’s teachings - the Zen wisdom that formed the basis of her own longtime spiritual practice.

In this wonderful book, she shares the lessons she learned - lessons that reveal time and again: No matter the situation, resolution begins in our own hearts and minds.

Essa pergunta intriga pais e pedagogos do mundo inteiro, e a resposta mais comum tende a ser que o potencial de sucesso de uma criança varia de acordo com sua inteligência. Mas, nas últimas décadas, pesquisadores vêm constatando que notas altas e testes de QI não são indicadores de uma educação de qualidade — e muito menos uma garantia de sucesso na vida. O jornalista Paul Tough coloca em debate o atual paradigma da educação e questiona o valor dado à ideia de que uma criança bem-sucedida é aquela capaz de memorizar todo o conteúdo transmitido na sala de aula.

The world may have committed at Paris to hold back dangerous climate change, but Australia's fossil-fuel giant Woodside is doubling down: it has bold new plans to keep producing gas out to 2070.

Chi parla, soprattutto se da posizioni di autorità o in contesti istituzionali, ha una pesante responsabilità: ciò che diciamo cambia i limiti di ciò che può essere detto, sposta un po' più in là i confini di ciò che viene considerato normale, assodato, legittimo. E cambiare i limiti di ciò che può essere detto cambia allo stesso tempo i limiti di ciò che può essere fatto.

Come sono cambiati i media, con quali meccanismi e quali stratagemmi, nell'epoca che chiamiamo "Era della Comunicazione"?

Caring or careless? In this powerful and moving essay, Micheline Lee tells the story of the National Disability Insurance Scheme, a transformative social change that ran into problems. For some users it has been “the only lifeboat in the ocean,” but for others it has meant still more exclusion.
