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.

How could a woman who spent her life doing laundry

Oseola McCarty (third from the right)
and her family in 1922
F or most of her life, Oseola McCarty of
Hattiesburg, Mississippi, did laundry
for other people. It seems reasonable
to assume that the modest income of a
washerwoman would prohibit her from
becoming a philanthropist. What people
in Hattiesburg could not have guessed was
that McCarty would wind up donating a
small fortune to the local university. Large
donations usually come from wealthy
alumni. However, the University of Southern
Mississippi announced that Oseola McCarty,
then 87 years old, was giving the university
$150,000 to finance scholarships for African
American students. “I want them to have
an education,’’ said McCarty, who never
married and had no children of her own.
“I had to work hard all my life. They can
have the chance that I didn’t have.’’
