The document summarizes an evaluation of an interactive game production process. It notes that the initial research and planning were not as thorough as they could have been, which impacted the overall product. Time management was also an issue, as extra planned features had to be cut due to running out of time. Peer feedback indicated that the animation and drawing were good but could be improved, and that sound effects were needed. The creator agrees sound was lacking and that smoother animation with more frames could have improved realism.
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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
3. Research
• I looked at a few games of similar games(Scott pilgrim vs the world: the
game and streets of rage) and based my idea off of that. The concept
wasn’t very original but I added my own style to make it unique. I feel if I
had done further research my product would have benefit from it, it
would help me develop my idea more and create an all around better
product, however the research I did was a good starting point and gave me
a lot of inspiration and vision for what my game should look like and hwo
it should behave and interact with the user
4. Planning
• My plan was very vague and a lot was left up decisions made in the
moment while making my product. I should have gone a lot deeper with
my planning, this would help me plan out my protagonist and antagonist
should move if I had found them doing different positions, as well as my
story and features in my game instead having a basic idea and building a
game out of it. My planning wasn’t as detailed as it should have been and I
the background I planned to use looks nothing like how I thought it, I
changed it as I was developing my game
5. Time Management
• My time management did not go as I expected. I ran out of time to finish
my product, most of the basic animation is complete but it doesn't have
any of the extra features I wanted to add or music and sound effects, I
would have liked more time to do the things I wanted maybe once I've
finished the project I will go back and add the details
6. Technical Qualities
Scott pilgrim vs the world: the game is one of the games I took inspiration
from, the game does have a fair few similarities to my own game in the
sense their adventure fighting game and have similar game mechanics,
Scott pilgrim obviously plays a lot better because its an official game and
they have a lot more technical skills and better graphical tools
7. Aesthetic Qualities
The background and characters look okay but the animation is a little bit clunky,
that could be due to my animation skill or maybe there isn’t enough frames in the
movement to make it look natural and fluid, there is also a lagging effect when
characters change position or disappear that I would like to get rid off because it
takes what realism my game has away from it
10. Feedback 1
• What did you like about the product?
– Good animation
– Good drawing
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
– Needs sound
11. Feedback 2
• What did you like about the product?
– Decently drawn and animated
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
– Needs sound and the animation isn’t as good as it
could be
12. Feedback 3
• What did you like about the product?
– I like the way it was animated and drawn
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
– Could be better with sound
13. Peer Feedback Summary
• What do you agree with from your peer
feedback?
– My animation needs sound
• What do you disagree with from your peer
feedback?
• I think the drawing wasn’t as good as it could
have been
14. Peer Feedback Summary
If I was to revisit this to do it again I would add sound and make
the animation smoother by adding more frames, this would make
it look less clunky and more smooth
