Tuesday, April 23rd is World Book Day. This day is designated to help promote reading, encourage exploring different types of literature, and to discover the benefits of reading. Unfortunately, there is a continual decline in literacy reading. The ten-year rate of decline has accelerated from -5% to -14% since 1992. People are reading fewer books each year and it’s a global phenomenon. Reading is critical for development at all ages, and it is an important form of learning. There are many benefits: ·      Stimulating our minds and increasing our vocabulary  ·      Teaching us new things and improving our focus ·      Relaxing us and reducing stress On World Book Day, challenge yourself to set a reading goal for you or your team while reinforcing the importance and benefits of picking up a good book!  How many books have you read this year and what do you enjoy most about reading?

In-person tickets open: Whither the Public Lecture? Book via: https://gres.hm/provost-24 Professor Martin Elliottt delivers our annual Provost's Lecture and asks: In an era supposedly characterised by shorter attention spans, and greater competition for that attention, what space is left for the public lecture and what is its purpose? Why do people still want to deliver them? What makes a great lecture? What is the relative importance of an in-person v an online audience? Is audience size an indication of the value of lecture content? Can the public lecture survive? This lecture will address these and other questions from a personal, but hopefully informed, perspective. #education #lecture #publicdebate
