It’s natural to feel like you don't want to do anything from time to time, especially during times of stress or when busier than usual. Give yourself permission to do nothing or try one of the tips listed below. ter.li/srlncu

£79,558 would pay the entire weekly household bills of an average family in the UK for two and a half years. If the Govt backs a paltry 1-2% pay rise for teachers this year, this will be an outrage: the NEU will launch a preliminary online ballot on 2 March. #InvestInEducation

How is #AI changing the language profession and industry? Today CIOL launches AI Voices – a white paper on AI in #translation and #language services that explores and explains the risks, opportunities, and challenges of artificial intelligence (AI) for anyone involved with languages and professional translation. AI is transforming the context for translation and language services, with new #tools and #technologies that can both create and improve content – but which also contain biases and can make significant and serious mistakes. Whether you are a #linguist, a #translator or you are simply interested in how AI is affecting translation, download the CIOL AI Voices white paper here: ciol.org.uk/ciol-ai-voices-w… #AI #translation #languages #CIOL
