When Mac first opens his classroom copy of Jane Yolen's The Devil's Arithmetic and finds some words blacked out, he thinks it must be a mistake. But then when he and his friends discover what the missing words are, he's outraged. Someone in his school is trying to prevent kids from reading the full story. But who?

Voornamelijk het elkaar begrijpen en het communiceren kan in de praktijk als een struikelblok ervaren worden, niet iedereen op de werkvloer is immers meertalig. Daarom hebben De Vormers Oost-Vlaanderen en de Samenwerkers van ACV-Innovatief de krachten gebundeld in een nieuwe podcastreeks over taalbeleid op de werkvloer. In zes afleveringen, één per maand, gaan we samen met ervaringsdeskundigen, vakbondsmilitanten en experten op zoek naar wat een doordacht taalbeleid precies inhoudt.

Your roadmap to success as an early-career professionalBeing a professional at the start of your career often feels limiting and discouraging. With a job market that is growing more crowded and competitive, hirers are increasingly (and unnecessarily) casting time and experience as the “golden ticket” to career advancement, rather than investing in passion and potential. When organizations fall into the pattern of prioritizing experience, they amplify the bias our society holds against the youth and miss out on the innovation-driving talents they provide.
