Raising school-aged grandkids: how to handle homework and school in a digital age

(Aging Untold) — For some older adults, this chapter of life was supposed to mean retirement. Instead, they are raising school-age kids again, navigating online portals, teacher apps and school meetings that look nothing like the school they remember. The Aging Untold experts are sharing how older caregivers can manage the digital side of modern schooling — and why their experience still matters. When the day-to-day of supporting a child’s education starts to feel overwhelming, older adults should know they are not alone. “I think it might be important to know that you may be the oldest member in the PTA, but you’re not probably the most confused,” gerontologist “Sam” Cradduck said. “There are many younger parents that are still trying to learn to navigate the online portals and the tablets that their kids have, not having textbooks.” “You may be the oldest member in the PTA, but you’re…

Former PM to mentor students in new Australian gig

Former New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern has taken up a post at a major Australian university. Ms Ardern, who was her home country's leader from 2017 to 2023, will soon begin guest-lecturing, running masterclasses and mentoring students and researchers at the University of Sydney. She has been appointed a professor of practice - a part-time role for people with extensive leadership experience outside of academia - in the school of public health.

Migrants with poor English told to apply for ‘goldmine’ student loans

A university recruiter encouraged migrants with settled status and poor English to take out student loans, telling them they were sitting on a "UK goldmine". Edu4u targeted EU nationals living in Britain who had not finished secondary school with promises of "tax-free payments" of up to £100,000. The agency claimed to have helped 4,300 people secure more than £123m in student loans. On its website, it said "No diploma? No problem" and that it could "enrol students with poor English too", adding: "You don't need a high school diploma to pursue higher education." An investigation by The Telegraph has identified four British universities which contracted Edu4u to recruit students. A further two universities indirectly worked with the agency through another recruitment firm or subcontracted course provider. In one of Edu4u's Polish videos from 2024, with more than 1.2 million views on…
