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.

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.

10 Professional Strategies for
Database Search Strategy Success
3. Use truncation or stemming for NL terms
3. Favor Default Fields in NL & CV Keyword
Mode [KW] searches:
1. EBSCO: Select a Field
2. ProQuest: All Fields ALL

10 Professional Strategies for
Database Search Strategy Success
5. Use Boolean because infrequent, colloquial, idiomatic, or
ungrammatical NL phrases are “statistically improbable
phrases” (SIPS), for example:
• “parent classroom” “parent volunteer classroom”
• “parents participation”
• “cult information”
• “weather changes” “feel bad weather” “feeling bad in weather”
5. Search terms match discipline and level of the database
• “bad weather” in magazine and popular sources vs. “atmospheric
conditions” in scientific and technical sources

7. Limit use of Limiters:
• Over limiting eliminates relevant items
• TX theodore roszak AND DE Roszak, Theodore
• PT= Review
• TI= chronic fatigue syndrome
7. Search with NL as if it were CV to identify actual CV:
• Keyword search of CV field, e.g., SKEY in Voyager Advanced
• Search found CV in CV field (descriptor, index term, subject,
subject heading)
• DE awakening [ Subject Work: The Awakening]
• DE chronic fatigue syndrome [ Fatigue syndrome, Chronic]

9. Searching CV as NL or as CV:
• CV as NL: environmental effects AND seasonal variations
• Search from within Thesaurus, click ADD terms to add CV strategy
• CV as CV: DE= environmental effects AND DE= seasonal variations
9.Notice sidebar links in results for useful CV:
• Fatigue Syndrome, Chronic-Treatment
• Fatigue Syndrome, Chronic-Therapy

Bibliographic Control
Bibliographic control includes the standardization of
bibliographic description and subject access by means
of uniform catalog code, classification systems, name
authorities, and preferred headings; the creation and
maintenance of catalogs, union lists, and finding aids;
and the provision of physical access to the items in the
collection.
