The public has been fascinated by the experience of interacting with large language models, or LLMs, like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini. In this episode we will look at current work with LLMs that plays to their strengths and involves a lower risk of inaccurate outputs. In particular we will look at the use of LLMs to translate between languages. Software teams generally operate in their native language. Once they have finished building their system, they often want to make it available in other languages to access other markets. The process of making a program that was originally written for one language usable by people who speak other languages is called internationalization. Historically internationalization has been a slow and expensive process. Today we will be talking with Archie McKenzie, the founder of a Silicon Valley startup that is offering internationalization services to software teams. Archie is atypical in various ways. A Briton, Archie came to the US to study Classics at Princeton. He ventured into a course taught by a famous computer scientist, Brian Kernighan, whose teaching inspired Archie to switch from Ancient Greek and Latin to Java, Python, and Typescript. After graduating from Princeton in 2024, Archie started a company called General Translation to develop and commercialize internationalization automation for software development projects.

The Bible warns us to stay focused on Scripture so that we can avoid stumbling into sin. God may use us to intercede on someone else's behalf and help draw them to spiritual safety. Ultimately the first gap that must be crossed is the one between ourselves and God and that is only done through the cross of Jesus Christ.

In the first of our 2026 Outlook episodes, our Economists in Asia discuss Nomura's key macro and market views for the region in the year ahead. In China, we discuss the "great divide" and the challenging backdrop for policy makers. For India, we expect another Goldilocks year, with strong cyclical growth, low inflation and another RBI rate cut. Across the broad region, we forecast a year of divergence, with technology and domestic demand divergences, creating leaders and laggards. We also welcome Craig Chan, our Global Head of FX Strategy, who outlines some thoughts on the US dollar, where we see some downside medium term risk, and a couple of potential medium-term winners. 

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Bennie Kara - former teacher, consultant, and author of Nuthall's Hidden Lives of Learners in Action - to explore what learning really looks like beneath the surface of the classroom. Drawing on Graham Nuthall's seminal research, Bennie unpacks the idea of the three worlds of the classroom (the public, social, and private worlds of learning) and explains why observation alone can never tell us what pupils have actually learned. The conversation ranges across deep listening, talk and oracy, prior knowledge and experience, misconceptions, and the limits of short lesson drop-ins, with practical reflections on how teachers can better surface pupils' thinking without being overwhelmed by workload. Bennie also connects Nuthall's insights to contemporary debates around curriculum design, inclusion, equity, and long-term memory, arguing that learning is shaped as much by peer interaction and prior experience as by what teachers plan and deliver. It's a thoughtful, challenging episode that invites leaders and teachers alike to rethink what counts as evidence of learning - and where to look for it. Bennie Kara started her career as an English teacher in the inaugural cohort of Teach First in 2003. After 20 years' experience in education as a teacher and former deputy headteacher specialising in teaching, learning and the curriculum, she now works as a leadership coach in schools as a speaker and trainer on topics such as DEI, teaching and learning, and effective curriculum construction. She is the author of three books focusing on diversity, equity and inclusion in education. Graham Nuthall's work and research, as recorded in The Hidden Lives of Learners, sits in the intersection of her interests. She is particularly interested in the way he explores the social construct of the classroom, as well as the ways in which identity, experience and interest play into long term learning and memory. She strongly believes that effective pedagogy is rooted in the needs of students and is informed by research.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Jude Arkwright, headteacher of St Michael's CE, Aldbourne, to explore how a strong culture of professional trust, research-informed practice, and professional development can transform teaching and learning. Jude shares how long-term staff stability and coaching triplets have created a school where teachers openly examine the smallest instructional details in real time, and where feedback is immediate, supportive and precise. The conversation then turns to St Michael's much-admired approach to continuous provision through to the end of Year 2, unpacking what high-quality, well-planned play looks like in practice, how it builds knowledge and self-regulation, and why it is anything but low-rigour. Packed with concrete examples - from tutor tables and small-group teaching to deliberately designed environments and routines - this episode offers a compelling picture of how alignment between curriculum, pedagogy and culture can create calm, purposeful classrooms where children and adults thrive.Jude Arkwright is Headteacher of St Michael's CE Aldbourne. She leads the school's successful Year One and Year Two continuous provision. Here is the way it is described: Research and our school experience tells us that young children learn best through play and exploration, this is why we have built on the excellent practice found in Reception. We have found our approach gives the children time to think and explore, in a culture, which supports both the adults and the children. We have seen close relationships build, a strong sense of well-being as well as greater levels of enthusiasm for learning by adults and children alike. The curriculum is exciting, creative and dynamic enabling skills and knowledge to be applied so that children can purposefully build on what has already been learnt as well as identifying what the children need to learn next to ensure they are all successful learners.

Tim will meet with his guest Samina Jardaneh to discuss some of the challenges facing teachers and young people in education. From the pressure placed on both teachers and students with the volume of assessment, through to the varied quality of Professional Development Tim and Samina will explore some of the major gaps seen in education. To add to this Tim and Samina will also discuss diversity across the curriculum.

This powerful exploration of Ephesians 3:7-9 invites us into the revolutionary concept of 'standing in the gap'—a calling that transforms us from passive observers of faith into active participants in God's redemptive work. Drawing from Paul's journey from persecutor to servant, we discover that the gospel isn't just something we believe; it's something we embody. The message beautifully contrasts two approaches to danger: London's subway system warns passengers to 'mind the gap,' while Japanese workers actively help people cross safely. This distinction becomes a profound metaphor for our Christian calling—we're not merely called to point out spiritual dangers but to stand in the gap ourselves, helping others move from separation to reconciliation with God. The sermon challenges our self-sufficiency by emphasizing that standing in the gap requires complete dependence on God's power, not our own abilities. Paul's confession of being 'less than the least' reminds us that our effectiveness comes not from our talents or wisdom but from surrendering to God's grace. The heart-stirring story of Nicholas Winton, who saved 669 children during the Holocaust, illustrates what it looks like to stand in the gap with courage and compassion. As we consider those in our lives who don't yet know Christ, we're invited to ask a transformative question: 'God, what would you have me do to stand in the gap for them?'

By the 30th of November, employers with more than 50 members of staff are legally required to publish their gender pay gap reports. Jennifer Keane, founder of paygap.ie, offers insight into this issue following the release of a Fórsa report that showed the average male worker earns 21% above their female counterparts.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Ann Palmer - educator, leadership coach, and founder of Figtree International - for a rich conversation spanning diversity, leadership, and the future of AI in education. Drawing on over 35 years of experience as a headteacher, Ofsted inspector, and international trainer, Ann shares how her work now centres on helping leaders grow into their roles, embedding sustainable approaches to diversity and inclusion through initiatives like the RACE Charter Mark, and exploring how technology can empower rather than replace teachers. Together they discuss why diversity work must move beyond tokenism, what great coaching looks like for school leaders, and how AI can enhance strategic thinking without eroding it. It's a conversation about courage, consciousness, and change - rooted in Ann's belief that education leadership should always be personal, purposeful, and impactful.Ann Palmer FCCT has over 35 years of experience working in education, and has partnered with schools across the UK and internationally.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Catherine Priggs and Hugh Richards, co-authors of Secondary History in Action, to dig into what great history curriculum and leadership look like in practice. They discuss starting with a clear departmental vision, making brave choices about what to include (and exclude), and balancing school context with disciplinary integrity. Along the way they unpack ideas like core and hinterland knowledge, Richard Kennett's museum curation analogy, and why non-specialist teaching makes a rich hinterland even more vital. Catherine shares insights from international curriculum work, while Hugh reflects on training hundreds of subject leaders and the realities of mandated trust curricula. The conversation also tackles assessment, examining extended writing in history as well as the kinds of tasks to avoid - before showcasing how scholarship-anchored enquiries can make the discipline sing. The book's design contains QR-linked routes into Historical Association resources, offering a practical portal for teachers who want exemplification, not just principles.

Are you getting the most out of your fund's performance? Over the past 10 years, the average dollar invested in US mutual funds and exchange-traded funds earned 1.2% less per year than what those funds returned during the same period. That's the top-line finding in this year's Mind the Gap study, which aims to address the question of where investors succeeded in capturing most of their funds' returns, and where they fell short. Jeff Ptak, a managing director for Morningstar Research Services, breaks down the takeaways from the report and what investors can do if they want to avoid leaving money on the table.Mind the Gap US 2025On this episode:How does the report measure the difference between investor returns and total returns?How does the latest research compare with previous years?

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Alun Francis OBE - Chief Executive of Blackpool and The Fylde College and Chair of the UK Social Mobility Commission - for a wide-ranging conversation about further education (FE), the importance of pedagogy in post-16 education, and what genuine upward mobility looks like in real communities. Alun traces the origins of his FE reform work (including the early “Teaching for Distinction” collaboration with Tom) and explains why knowledge, practice, and assessment must be tightly aligned across vocational programmes - from hair and beauty to motor vehicle and nautical training. He argues that inclusion is achieved first and foremost through everyday instructional design (“who remembers what, and who gets to think?”), and welcomes qualification reforms that prioritise retention and end-point assessment. The trio also unpack Alun's place-based view of social mobility - valuing skilled work, health, family and belonging, not simply income - and his contextual stance on pastoral care: compassion matters, but the core job is great teaching that changes life chances.Alun Francis OBE is the Chair of the Social Mobility Commission and Principal and Chief Executive of Blackpool and The Fylde College. Blackpool and the Fylde College is an award winning organisation and is one of the largest and highest performing further education colleges in the country. It is pioneering a new approach to Further Education and Higher Education delivery with Blackpool Council, called “Multiversity Blackpool” which sits at the heart of local regeneration plans. Alun has thirteen years of experience in further education, having previously led Oldham College. Prior to this he had a varied career which has included a range of public services, local government, area-based regeneration, youth work and education, including primary, secondary and higher education. He has a strong interest in the economics of what is now referred to as “levelling up” and sees FE colleges as making a strong contribution to addressing this challenge. He received an Order of the Order of the British Empire for service to education in the 2021 New Year's Honours List.Tom Sherrington has worked in schools as a teacher and leader for 30 years and is now a consultant specialising in teacher development and curriculum & assessment planning.

Why are startups racing ahead with AI while half of enterprises remain stuck in pilot purgatory?

A downgrade in the UK's economic forecast could mean a larger than expected gap in the numbers Chancellor Rachel Reeves has to play with in her budget. Sean Farrington asks an economist what options she has to balance the public purse next month. And, we'll be hearing from an industry analyst why a UK oil and gas company has filed for administration and what it means for the industry in the North Sea. Also, how a hot summer might mean a miserable autumn for lovers of all things pumpkin.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Mike Hobbiss - teacher, researcher, and author - to dive into the science of attention and what it means for everyday teaching. Mike shares what he uncovered during his PhD and subsequent research about attention in real classrooms (and that its main detractors are peers, mind-wandering, background noise, and phones) and why seating, routines, and explicit expectations matter. The trio unpack how to cue attention in space (gestures and precise directions) and in time (test expectancy and the “forward testing” effect), arguing that managing attention is a social-justice issue that can help level the playing field. They contrast primary and secondary contexts, debate rows vs. groups, and explore how teachers can use research without drowning in excess workload, but mostly, they just want you to pay attention! Mike spent 8 years teaching Psychology, both in the UK and abroad, before taking time out of the classroom to complete a PhD investigating attention and distraction in everyday environments, focusing especially on classrooms and other educational settings.

For the first time in history, attorneys from as many as five generations can be found practicing law together. From veteran trial lawyers in their 70s and up to Gen Z associates just starting out, the generational diversity in today's legal workforce is unprecedented.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington is joined by Meg Lee and Jim Heal, co-founders of Learning Science Partners, to explore how to make evidence-informed practice live and last at scale. Meg and Jim share why learning science should be a lens rather than an initiative, how they build common language across large, complex districts, and the three-phase approach they use to build, deepen, and sustain change. They discuss Maryland's move to embed foundational learning science in statute, practical facilitation moves (from cognitive-load demos to “transparent facilitation”), and the idea of instructional equity - asking “who gets to think?” in every lesson.Dr. Jim Heal is a leading advocate for bridging the worlds of research and practice in education.  His work seeks to develop expertise in evidence-informed instruction and leadership in K-12 schools, school districts, and higher education in the United States and Europe.  Dr. Heal was a high school English teacher and principal for ten years in the UK before moving to the US, where he became Director of Practice at Harvard's Research Schools International initiative. He currently serves as Professor of Evidence-Informed Education Leadership at Academica University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, served as a lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education where he earned his doctorate in educational leadership, and is author of How Teaching Happens: Seminal Works in Teaching and Teacher Effectiveness and What They Mean in Practice and Mental Models: How Understanding the Mind Can Transform the Way You Work and Learn.Meg Lee is a forerunner in implementing evidence-informed practice in schools and districts. A public school educator in a variety of roles from teacher to professional learning specialist to school-based administrator to central executive leader for over 25 years, Meg directed induction and professional learning for a large, innovative public district that implemented evidence-informed practice and worked to ensure every educator understands how learning happens.  She serves as Core Teacher, Learning Science and Advisor, Professional Learning at Academica University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, is the author of Mindsets for Parents: Strategies to Encourage Growth Mindsets in Kids (2nd ed.), and has taught education and psychology courses at the graduate level.Find out more about both Jim and Meg's work at https://www.learningsciencepartners.com/Tom Sherrington has worked in schools as a teacher and leader for 30 years and is now a consultant specialising in teacher development and curriculum & assessment planning.

SUMMARY In this episode of the Building Better Cultures podcast, Sadhbh O'Flaherty takes over the mic to interview Scott McInnes about his recent research titled 'Mind the Gap.' The research explores the cultural challenges organisations face today, particularly through the lens of Chief People Officers (CPOs) in Ireland. The conversation delves into the motivations behind the research, key findings, and actionable insights for organisations looking to improve their culture. Key themes include leadership skill and will, the role of managers, the importance of learning and development, accountability for values, and the challenge of disconnection in the workplace. Scott emphasises the need for intentionality in creating a strong organisational culture that aligns with business strategies.  Mind The Gap Research: http://bit.ly/4gXtNp2    TAKEAWAYS Connection among HR leaders is crucial.  Understanding culture challenges requires frontline insights.  Leaders set the tone for organisational culture.  Everyone in the organization owns the culture.  Managers play a key role in translating values to teams.  Learning should be prioritized beyond formal courses.  Accountability for values strengthens organisational culture.  Feedback is essential for personal and professional growth.  Intentionality is key in fostering workplace connections.  Culture impacts business outcomes significantly.    CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Research 02:02 The Motivation Behind the Research 04:28 Leadership Skill and Will 06:55 The Manager Factor 10:54 Skills for Today and Tomorrow 15:09 Accountability for Values 20:54 The Challenge of Disconnection 27:22 Surprises from the Research 29:18 Connecting Themes to Business Outcomes 32:34 Actionable Steps for Organisations

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by cognitive psychologist and bestselling author Professor Daniel Willingham to explore how insights from cognitive science can transform classroom practice. The conversation ranges from his influential book Why Don't Students Like School? to the enduring truth that “memory is the residue of thought.” Together, they discuss the power of narrative in learning, the balance between shallow and deep knowledge, and why repetition and practice still matter. Dan also unpacks key ideas like encoding, cognitive load, and the role of manipulatives, offering practical advice for helping students think deeply and retain what they learn. The episode is a rich, thought-provoking exploration of how the mind works, critical thinking, and their implications for education.Daniel Willingham is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia, where he has taught since 1992. Until about 2000, his research focused solely on the brain basis of learning and memory. Today, all of his research concerns the application of cognitive psychology to K-16 education. He is the author of several books, including the best-selling Why Don't Students Like School?, and most recently, Outsmart Your Brain. His writing on education has appeared in twenty-three languages. ​In 2017 he was appointed by President Obama to serve as a Member of the National Board for Education Sciences.

Are you constantly chasing perfection, or are you truly celebrating progress? In this insightful episode of the Leadership Sandbox podcast, Tammy J. Bond challenges leaders to shift their focus from the dreaded "gap" of what hasn't been accomplished to the powerful "gain" of what has. Tammy passionately advocates for a gain-driven mindset, urging leaders to move beyond self-sabotage by acknowledging every step forward, learning from failures, and fostering a truly positive team environment. Discover how conducting a "gain audit" can transform your perspective, enhance motivation, and significantly boost team performance. This conversation highlights the profound impact of measuring progress on team dynamics and underscores why leadership is about owning your journey – celebrating every piece of traction, not just the final win. Stop punishing yourself with unmet goals and start cultivating a culture of acknowledgment and growth! Key Takeaways for Leaders: Progress Over Perfection: Shift your focus from measuring what you haven't accomplished (the "gap") to celebrating what you have achieved (the "gain"). The "Gap" Treadmill: Understand that "living in the gap" is counterproductive, leading to self-sabotage and hindering motivation. Perspective is Power: Recognize that true progress is found in perspective, not the unattainable pursuit of perfection. Celebrate Traction: Learn to celebrate every piece of traction and small win, not just major successes, to build continuous momentum. Conduct a Gain Audit: Implement a gain audit with your team to intentionally review accomplishments and foster a positive, appreciative environment. Lead by Example: Be aware that your team watches how you measure success – model a gain-driven mindset. Learn from Failures: Embrace acknowledging failures as valuable learning opportunities, rather than reasons for self-punishment. Shift Negative Mindsets: Actively work to shift negative mindsets within yourself and your team towards recognizing opportunities and strengths. Own Your Journey: Embrace the reality that leadership is about owning your journey, acknowledging every step of growth and learning. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How to apply a gain-driven mindset to enhance motivation and combat self-sabotage. Practical steps for conducting a gain audit with your team to improve team performance and morale. The critical role of perspective and emotional intelligence in effective goal setting and leadership. Why celebrating progress, even small achievements, impacts team dynamics and overall organizational health. Strategies to move from a focus on shortcomings to one of strength and growth. Chapters: 00:00 Measuring Progress vs. Self-Punishment: Tammy introduces the core concept of shifting from self-criticism to celebrating progress. 05:11 Conducting a Gain Audit: Practical guidance on how to implement a gain audit with your team for tangible results.

In the first session we learned about the Apollo Program's lunar landing control system. In this episode we are going to explore a contemporary human plus computer control system failure involving a US Navy warship. We will be looking at a collision in the Singapore Strait in the pre-dawn darkness of August 21, 2017.

Also contributing to the accident were the McCain bridge team's loss of situational awareness and failure to follow steering loss emergency procedures.
