Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. “Life is messy, controversial, fluid, contentious - lots
of things a museum has difficulty with.”
4. “We‟ve got these buildings – physical and conceptual - designed
around the spectatorship experience that goes back to the late 19th
century, and we haven‟t been able to shake it off. It‟s so rigid. The
genuine intention to be socially participatory is continually undermined.
Museum professionals are entrapped with a way of working in which
only certain channels of communication are allowed – but of course
people use museums in their own social ways that is rarely
acknowledged. We are still working inside the bubble of a fixed
construct.”
Alistair Hudson
5.
6. The current growth model is based on
building expansions, expensive
exhibitions, growing collections and
increased operating costs – coupled
with the relentless imperative of visitor
consumption in order to augment the
earned revenues that are required to
support the increased costs. This
vicious cycle is unsustainable.

12. The environment…
“It‟s not seen as controversial in the way that other political and social
issues are. In most cases it doesn‟t have to be a case of taking one
side or another – it‟s more about starting the discussion.”
Maurice Davies,
British Museums Association
13. “There are almost no organisations that go far enough in the
face of the most catastrophic mass extinction in the earth‟s
history. Neutrality implies an absence of ethos and passion. I‟d
rather see museums act fully as guardians of commons, as
models of stewardship of human and biological diversity. They
need to be spaces to allow people to voice their feelings about
the future. These feelings will intensify as conditions worsen.”
Bridget McKenzie
15. “I‟m not an academic, but sometimes my problem is with academia....
It‟s like people who don‟t talk about racism but the symptoms of
racism.” [what we might term - the high concept of RACISM]. He
continued, “Racism is about human beings - it‟s not about analysing it
in an exhibition. It‟s the feelings we have inside, the hatred, the
palpable feelings – that‟s the racism I‟m interested in.”

16. “to move beyond the specifics of exhibition controversies and
theoretical rhetoric to examine the relevance, plausibility and practical
operation of a range of museums as civic centres and for the
engagement of topics of contemporary relevance and importance.”
17. The project research asked…
• „Are museums information sources and safe places to explore these
topics by presenting a range of viewpoints?‟, or „Should museums
take a more active role, as transformative spaces to challenge and
change views?‟
• „Should museums act as provocateurs and take a leading role as
social and political activists to bring about change, and to assist in
the resolution of issues on a personal or political level?‟
• „ Alternatively, is the primary role of museums to offer non-
challenging social experiences? And can museums be all of these
things at once?‟
• Other questions related to museums, social responsibilities and civic
roles, as information sources including authority, expertise and
censorship, the impact of controversies on institutional
functioning, successful programming and funding arrangements.
19. “Whatever the recent successes of civil society
organisations in helping to address [current] challenges, it
seems that current responses are incommensurate with the
scale of the problems we confront. It is increasingly evident
that resistance to action on these challenges will only be
overcome through engagement with the cultural values that
underpin this resistance.”
T. Crompton
Common Cause: The Case for Working with our Cultural Values
2010
20. “The fundamental question is – what social institutions exist to
address these challenges, recognizing the growing ineffectiveness
of government bureaucracies and the wreckage of the corporate
profit agenda? Even universities are becoming the handmaidens of
corporatists, with science in the interests of consumerism driving
many university research budgets. Museums, it is argued, are one of
the few social institutions with vast potential for proactive and
effective community engagement.”

Victoria Hollows,

31. “We‟re here to
challenge, and I fear that
others may not challenge
us back. It‟s not for you
to just listen to us being
angry and just listen. The
point is the dialogue. The
point is that we could be
totally wrong. I don‟t
personally believe I‟m
wrong – but I am willing
to listen to somebody
who totally disagrees
with me.”
32. “If we in museums don‟t do it, who will?”
James Clifford, 2013
33. “Agitate, because we will need all your enthusiasm.
Get organized, because we'll need all your strength.
Study, because we will need all your intelligence.”
