LANGUAGE classes of the future might come with a physical workout. People learn a new language more easily when words are accompanied by movement.
Manuela Macedonia and Thomas Knösche at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig, Germany, enrolled 20 volunteers on a six-day course to learn “Vimmi”, an artificial language designed to make study results easier to interpret. Half of the material was taught using spoken and written instructions and exercises, while the other half was taught with body movements to accompany each word, which the students were asked to act out.
Students remembered significantly more of the words taught with movement, and used them more readily when creating new sentences (Mind, Brain and Education, DOI: 10.1111/j.1751-228X.2011.01129.x).

Green gifting is everywhere this Christmas. Whether you’re looking for a loved one whose already buying vintage and eating organic or if you’re trying to change the ways of a burger-loving litterbug, Colin Beavan’s No Impact Man is an entertaining and poignant account of the author’s year of having zero impact on the environment.
Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn present a heart rendering and cold reality of women’s situation worldwide in “Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide.” Written in 2009, the book encourages readers to aid marginalized women. The authors insist that women hold up half the sky and when women are marginalized, mistreated, and seen as inferior, societies decay, fall apart and cannot compete economically. From Asia to Africa to the Middle East, both author’s traveled and met countless women who have been subjected to misogyny. The book touches on sexual slavery, beatings, rape, maternal mortality, honor killings, and female genital mutilation.
