The enduring joy of Golden Girls: a wildly sassy sitcom that will always cheer you up
A comedic masterclass with the best sitcom theme song of all time, Golden Girls pulled back the curtains on ageing and dealt with big-ticket issues.
A zinger-infused maelstrom of shoulder pads, pastels and perms. Rattan furniture, DayGlo linen and Formica. There’s such a distinctive look, feel and vibe to The Golden Girls, the iconic sitcom that ran from 1985 to 1992, scooping up 68 Emmy nominations and 11 wins in the process. The brainchild of producer Susan Harris, the show spawned several acclaimed spinoffs and became an enduring work of high camp in the process.
The premise? Three older women decide to live together: the stern, witty ex-teacher Dorothy Zbornak (Bea Arthur), the sweet but fantastically dense Rose Nylund (Betty White) and southern hornbag Blanche Devereaux (Rue McClanahan). At first it’s a matter of convenience, but before long, they become fast friends. During the pilot they’re joined by a fourth: Dorothy’s mother Sophia Petrillo (Estelle Getty), a nitpicky little shrew whose ability to cockblock our heroines saw her gradually become the Scrappy-Doo of the house. (Don’t @ me, Goldies, you know I’m right.)
For a comedy that primarily took place within a Floridian kitchen, The Golden Girls boasted some serious talent. The four leads were all astoundingly adept at their craft.
The golden girls themselves proved that the family you make is sometimes stronger than the one you’re born with. Dorothy, Rose and Blanche feel, at times, aged out of their previous lives. Careers, spouses, the world: all seem to be pushing them away. But the girls are proof that you can – and should – forge new bonds, even if it seems like your old life is done for. That you can make a new family, even if your old one rejects you.
The Golden Girls pulled back the curtains on ageing, showing the ways in which old people can be flawed, passionate, monumentally stupid, brave – even at times, almost heroically horny. And it did so with an almost reckless willingness to be as wildly funny as it possibly could.
The show ended up doing what many sitcoms do: use antagonism as heat to push the plot forward. It takes truly hack writers to defend needless antagonism as the only source of fuel to propel a story (I’m looking at you, post-Sorkin West Wing). The last two seasons of The Golden Girls aren’t terrible, but Sophia morphs from an old lady without boundaries to an ancient sociopathic prankster. But even with this odd acceleration towards a caricatured sitcom event horizon, the show still manages to roll out the hits. The two-part finale, written by Mitch Hurwitz (the creator of Arrested Development) and starring Leslie Nielsen as Dorothy’s love interest, ranks as some of the best in the show’s history.
It also has – and I cannot stress this enough – the best sitcom theme song in the history of sitcom theme songs. In 2023, there are few things that will haul you out of whatever psychic muck you find yourself in than whacking on an episode of The Golden Girls. I promise you, once the credits roll, you’ll find yourself lying on the lanai in your mind, feeling somehow much lighter than you did before.

La Isla Bonita (Madonna, 1986)
¿Cómo puede ser verdad?
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song
A young girl with eyes like the desert
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby
I fell in love with San Pedro
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
Te dijo te amo
I prayed that the days would last
They went so fast
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by
Beautiful faces, no cares in this world
Where a girl loves a boy, and a boy loves a girl
Te dijo te amo
El dijo que te ama
La isla bonita
Your Spanish lullaby

The announcement of pandemic-related lockdown measures in March 2020 in the UK led to a wide-ranging series of measures in education as a whole to deal with the sudden changes in the learning environment. These included top-down policy directives and centralised toolkits, but arguably in language education the most effective responses were often bottom-up community initiatives. Language education was well placed to deal with some of the challenges in responding to the rapid move to online teaching through historical work in areas such as computer-assisted language learning (CALL) (Levy) dating back to the 1960s and more recent variants such as mobile-assisted language learning (MALL). There has been undeniably community-driven work in the school sector in particular in recent years, with the use of the #MFLTwitterati hashtag in part driving debate around the use of technology in language education on Twitter long before COVID-19 struck, and the TiLT (Technology in Language Teaching) webinar series, which began soon afterwards in March 2020. During the COVID-19 crisis, in a drive to support language teachers in moving to online teaching, experts at the Open University developed a free toolkit that could be downloaded, used, adapted and modified by ML practitioners which indeed made a difference. Social media was often a useful platform to provide help with teaching online (Rosell-Aguilar). Other examples include interdisciplinary discussions, such as the AMLUK Symposium on Modern Languages, Area Studies and Linguistics in 2021, which provided examples of the relationship and possible interdisciplinary links between research and pedagogy in Modern Languages, Area Studies and Linguistics. This symposium assuredly opened up constructive discussions about which teaching methodologies and strategies could support the internationalisation and decolonisation of our discipline.

A Way Back From Campus Chaos
Protesting the world’s wrongs has been a rite of passage for generations of American youth, buoyed by our strong laws protecting free speech and free assembly. Yet the students and other demonstrators disrupting college campuses this spring are being taught the wrong lesson – for as admirable as it can be to stand up for your beliefs, there are no guarantees that doing so will be without consequence. The highest calling of a university is to craft a culture of open inquiry, one where both free speech and academic freedom are held as ideals. Protest is part of that culture, and the issue on which so many of the current demonstrations are centered – U.S. involvement in the Israel-Hamas conflict – ought to be fiercely and regularly debated on college campuses.
The constitutional right to free speech is the protection against government interference restricting speech. In the real world, though, this can get messy, and nuance is required when free speech comes into tension with protecting academic freedom. The earliest universities to adopt the principle of academic freedom did so to thwart interference and influence from totalitarian states and religious zealotry. Student codes of conduct and other guidelines are meant to relieve some of the tension between free speech and academic freedom, as well as to ensure that schools are in compliance with government regulations and laws. During the current demonstrations, a lack of accountability has helped produce a crisis. It has left some Jewish students feeling systematically harassed. It has deprived many students of access to parts of campus life.
For years, right-wing Republicans, at the federal and state level, have found opportunities to crusade against academic freedom, with charges of antisemitism on campus serving as the latest vehicle. The House of Representatives used this moment of chaos as cover to begin a legislative effort to crack down on elite universities, and lawmakers in the House recently passed a proposal that would impose egregious government restrictions on free speech.
Schools ought to be teaching their students that there is as much courage in listening as there is in speaking up. It has not gone unnoticed – on campuses but also by members of Congress and by the public writ large – that many of those who are now demanding the right to protest have previously sought to curtail the speech of those whom they declared hateful. Establishing a culture of openness and free expression is crucial to the mission of educational institutions. That includes clear guardrails on conduct and enforcement of those guardrails, regardless of the speaker or the topic. Doing so would not only help restore order on college campuses today but would also strengthen the cultural bedrock of higher education for generations to come.

I. O cognitivismo, como abordagem teórica na educação, destaca-se pela ênfase nos processos mentais internos e na importância da aprendizagem significativa, na qual os novos conhecimentos são intrinsecamente conectados aos esquemas cognitivos preexistentes, promovendo, assim, uma compreensão mais profunda e duradoura.
II. A teoria cognitivista, ao contrário do Behaviorismo, considera que o ambiente social e a interação são fatores secundários no processo de construção do conhecimento.
Assinale a alternativa correta.
I. Com o fim de garantir o pleno acesso ao ensino e à educação nos termos preconizados pelo ECA com vistas à plena formação e ao desenvolvimento do indivíduo, sem que lhe seja tolhida a possibilidade de trabalho, nos termos permitidos pela legislação, é dever do Estado efetivar e garantir acesso à educação ao adolescente trabalhador, disponibilizando ensino regular noturno.
II. É dever do Estado prestar atendimento fundamental à criança mediante a realização de programas suplementares com o fornecimento de material didático, transporte, alimentação e assistência social.
III. O oferecimento de ensino irregular ou insatisfatório por parte do poder público, não atendendo aos objetivos e aos direitos preconizados pelo ECA, implica responsabilidade competente.
IV. Os pais ou responsáveis têm a obrigação legal de matricular os seus filhos e/ou pupilos na rede regular de ensino. Além de efetuar matrícula, o pai deve acompanhar a frequência e o rendimento escolar do menor, sob pena de, não fazendo, configurar abandono intelectual.
Está correto o que se afirma em
I. Em 1930 foi a criada a da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional nº 4.024, que estabeleceu a obrigatoriedade do ensino primário no país, representando um marco nas políticas educacionais ao tornar o ensino fundamental compulsório. No entanto, a implementação efetiva e a universalização do ensino primário foram desafiadoras, dada a falta de estrutura e recursos adequados em muitas regiões do Brasil naquela época.
II. Assim como a expansão capitalista não se fez por todo o território nacional e de forma mais ou menos homogênea, a expansão da demanda escolar só se desenvolveu nas zonas onde se intensificaram as relações de produção capitalista, o que acabou criando uma das contradições mais sérias do sistema educacional brasileiro.
III. Se de um lado iniciamos nossa revolução industrial e educacional com um atraso de mais de cem anos em relação aos países desenvolvidos, de outro, essa revolução tem atingido de forma desigual o próprio território nacional. Daí resultou uma defasagem histórica e, se assim podemos exprimir-nos, geográfica, que se tem traduzido pela presença de contradições cada vez mais profundas.
IV. Vivemos, em matéria de educação, como nos demais aspectos da vida social, duas ou mais épocas históricas simultaneamente. Somos, com isso, obrigados a resolver problemas que outros povos já resolveram há um século ou mais, enquanto enfrentamos situações mais complexas, cuja superação exige uma tradição cultural e educacional que ainda não temos.
V. A luta de classes no terreno educacional, após a Revolução de 1930, revelou-se harmoniosa, uma vez que o sistema escolar, a partir desse momento, experimentou uma redução da pressão social por educação, com demandas mais restritas e menos exigências em termos de democratização do ensino.
