The document outlines 10 "commandments" or principles for intelligent IT investment. The principles advise that great projects have great leaders to drive them forward. People, not processes, achieve success though processes can help. It's important to be clear on roles and interfaces between teams. Controlling time is key to controlling projects overall. Leveraging outside expertise can be better than relying only on internal resources. It's better to be a customer of services than their provider. Buyers should beware ("caveat emptor") and not give away intellectual property without consideration. Transparency is important. And if one feels in control of a project, that likely means a lack of understanding of the challenges.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Editor's Notes
Following the Morris worm incident, which brought 10 percent of internet systems to a halt in November 1988, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) charged the SEI with setting up a center to coordinate communication among experts during security emergencies and to help prevent future incidents. This center was named the CERT Coordination Center (CERT/CC). Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) is a unified, measurable set of software weaknesses that enables the effective discussion, description, selection, and use of software security tools and services that can find these weaknesses in source code and operational systems
