Education
Educator Reflection
What is communication (and what isn’t it)?
The P21 framework emphasizes effective use of oral, written, and nonverbal communication skills for multiple purposes (e.g., to inform, instruct, motivate, persuade, and share ideas). It also focuses on effective listening, using technology to communicate, and being able to evaluate the effectiveness of communication efforts—all within diverse contexts (adapted from P21). Note that working in partners is a great way to collaborate or build shared understanding but a critical part of communication is sharing with an authentic audience.

Grants and scholarships
Grants and scholarships are not the same things, and the two terms are often confused.
People often wonder about the difference between scholarships and grants. Both are student financial aid that helps to pay for the necessities associated with higher education such as tuition, room, board, and textbooks. Though people sometimes confuse the terms or use them interchangeably, each has their own eligibility requirements and guidelines. One similarity grants and scholarships have is that they don’t need to be repaid, unlike college loans. Let’s take a look at the various characteristics of scholarships and grants.

What business support grants are available due to COVID-19?
Background
The Small Business Grant Fund, the Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Grants and Local Authority Discretionary Grants which ran through the initial lockdown period have now largely expired.
Currently some businesses in local lockdown areas may be able to claim further grants under the Local Restrictions Support Grant.
We are awaiting updated guidance as to any further grant funding for businesses following the announcement of the second national lockdown.
Eligibility
Your business may be eligible if it:
Occupies property on which it pays business rates
Is in a local lockdown area and has been required to close because of the formal publication of local restrictions guidance that resulted in a first full day of closure on or after 9 September. This funding is not retrospective
Has been required to close for at least three weeks because of the lockdown
Has been unable to provide its usual in-person customer service from its premises

Global Economy Far Worse Off Than Previously Thought, IMF Predicts

Global Economy Far Worse Off Than Previously Thought, IMF Predicts
The International Monetary Fund forecasts that economies hit by COVID-19 are in more trouble than previously forecasted. NPR's Lulu Garcia-Navarro and Jim Zarroli speak with the IMF's Gita Gopinath.
LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST:
This crisis like no other will have a recovery like no other - that from our next guest, the chief economist of the International Monetary Fund. In the wake of this pandemic, the IMF says the global economic outlook is far worse than previously thought, and recovery will take a lot longer. For those living in poor countries, that will mean greater income inequality, more debt and more poverty. Gita Gopinath is the chief economist for the IMF, and she joins us now.
