movie review article
This document summarizes and discusses a viewing of the documentary film "The Abolitionists" that took place at Nova Southeastern University's library. The summary critiques the film for largely omitting the contributions and perspectives of African Americans in the abolitionist movement. While the film featured some prominent abolitionists like Frederick Douglass, it only included two black voices and portrayed the movement as something whites did for blacks, rather than a joint struggle. The discussion after the film further highlighted this issue. Historians whose works focus on the key roles of black abolitionists had been consulted for the film but their perspectives were left out.

How the Muse Came to Berkeley, Ames
The 2001 North American James Joyce Conference held in Berkeley, California was a success with scholars from around the world gathering to present papers and discuss Joyce's works. A highlight was the reading groups that met to jointly analyze passages from Ulysses and Finnegans Wake, allowing for lively debate and new insights. The biggest surprise came when Adam Harvey, who had spent three years memorizing a section of Finnegans Wake, performed it for over an hour. His passionate recitation stunned the audience and showed Joyce's words being brought to life through his voice in a completely new way. The performance was hailed as an "epoch-making, history-breaking event" that may change the field of Joyce studies significantly.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
