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.

1. TheSeven Wonders
Selected by theAncient Greeks
When the ancient Greeks decided to select
seven wonders from the many impressive
structures that had been constructed
throughout history, there was a lot of
argument about which structures to select.
Over the years, many different lists were created. Finally, a
list was presented that most Greeks agreed included the
seven most wondrous wonders, each a unique achievement.

4. The Temple of Artemis was first built
around 800 BCE in the ancient Greek
city of Ephesus, on the coast of what is
now modern day Turkey.
The Temple of Artemis at EphesusThe Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
The temple was destroyed and rebuilt several times. Each time, it
was rebuilt more impressively than the temple before it.
The first temple was destroyed around 550 BCE in a war. Years
later, the temple was burnt down by a man who wanted to be
remembered forever. (The town created a law that said anyone
who mentioned his name would be put to death immediately.)
5. The Temple of Artemis at EphesusThe Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
Today, all that remains of this incredible structure
is a single column in the middle of a marshy field
that marks the spot where the Temple once stood.
7. The Great Pyramid of Giza is about 4,500 years old, and
is the only ancient wonder still standing.
The Great Pyramid at GizaThe Great Pyramid at Giza
8. Until the early 1800's, the Great Pyramid at Giza was
the tallest building in the world!
The Great Pyramid at GizaThe Great Pyramid at Giza
9. The Great Pyramid at GizaThe Great Pyramid at Giza
The Great pyramid was made by
hand! It is nearly 800 feet long, 450
feet high. It was built with over two
million of blocks of stone.
The average weight of
each stone is about
2,500 pounds - around
the same weight as a
car!
11. There was little argument
that the Hanging Gardens of
Babylon would be included
as a world wonder. It was on
nearly everyone’s list.
The Hanging GardensThe Hanging Gardens
The thought of a huge and
magnificent garden, towering
300 feet above the desert
sands, appealed to the Greeks
sense of the incredible.
12. The Hanging GardensThe Hanging Gardens
The Hanging Gardens were
supposedly built around 600
BCE, along the banks of the
Euphrates River in Babylon.
Constructed inside the palace
walls, the gardens were built
in a series of platforms, or
terraces, that created a
structure 400 feet long, 400
feet wide, and 380 feet high!
13. The Hanging GardensThe Hanging Gardens
Wandering paths and a series of
steps connected the various
levels. The gardens were a
wonderland of greenery,
flowering plants, and waterfalls.
That alone would have greatly
impressed the ancient Greeks.
But a love story was attached
to the gardens that made them
even more interesting.
14. It was rumored that the king
King Nebuchadnezzar, ordered
the gardens built to honor his
queen.
The Hanging GardensThe Hanging Gardens
The queen was homesick for
her land in the mountains. The
gardens were designed by the
king to make his queen feel
loved and welcomed in her
new land of Babylon.
15. No one knows if the love story
behind the Hanging Gardens
of Babylon is true, or if the
gardens ever really existed.
The Hanging GardensThe Hanging Gardens
But it was a great story, and
the Greeks loved stories,
especially stories about war
and love.
17. King Mausolus was a ruler of a small
kingdom in Asia Minor. He was
married to Artemisia, who loved him
dearly.
The Mausoleum at HalicarnassusThe Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
When the king died, his wife decided
to build her husband the most
magnificent tomb in the world.
18. The tomb was called the
Mausoleum at Halicarnassus.
The Mausoleum at HalicarnassusThe Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
It was so splendid that the Greeks
selected the tomb to be one of the
seven wonders of the world.
Today, there is nothing left of the
Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
except a story about a queen who
loved her husband dearly.
20. There was absolutely no argument
about the Statue of Zeus. It was a world
wonder – everyone knew that!
The Statue of Zeus at OlympiaThe Statue of Zeus at Olympia
Zeus was the king of the ancient Greek
gods. Olympia was the city that hosted
the Ancient Greek Olympic Games. The
statue could have been the size of a
peanut, and still the Ancient Greeks
would have selected it. But it truly was a
magnificent structure.
21. The Temple of Zeus was
completed in 456 BCE.
The Statue of Zeus at OlympiaThe Statue of Zeus at Olympia
Like the Parthenon and
the Temple of Artemis,
Doric columns were used
to support the structure.
It was built in Olympia
to honor Zeus and the
Greek Olympic Games.
22. The Statue of Zeus at OlympiaThe Statue of Zeus at Olympia
Today, little remains of the temple or the
once magnificent Statue of Zeus within
it. But the spirit of the Olympic Games
lives on!
24. Rhodes is an island in the
Mediterranean Sea. Once, it
was part of ancient Greece.
The Colossus of RhodesThe Colossus of Rhodes
Alexander the Great conquered
Rhodes. When Alexander died,
his generals fought for control
of the island.
Rhodes was perfectly situated
to be a crossroads of trade.
25. The people of Rhodes did support one of the generals. But that
general won control of Egypt. Another general gained control of
Rhodes. To punish the people for not supporting him, he sent
his son to level Rhodes.
The Colossus of RhodesThe Colossus of Rhodes
Help arrived from
Egypt! The general
they had supported
sent troops from
Egypt to help the
people of Rhodes
drive the son away.
26. With Egypt’s help, the people won!
With joy, they melted down the
bronze armor and war machinery
left behind by the son, and used it
to build a giant statue of their
patron god Helios, to thank Helios
for helping them save their city.
The Colossus of RhodesThe Colossus of Rhodes
The statue was 110 feet high and
stood on a 50 foot base. Each
morning, the sun glittered off the
bronze plates that covered the
statue. It was quite a sight!
27. The Colossus of RhodesThe Colossus of Rhodes
Only 56 years after the statue was
built, it was toppled by an
earthquake. Many pieces fell into the
harbor. Some pieces remained on
land, including the statue’s thumb.
People traveled great
distances to see the huge
thumb. They tried to put their
arms around it. The thumb
was bigger than their arms
could stretch.
28. The king of Egypt offered money to
rebuild the statue. But the people of
Rhodes said no. They believed their
god Helios was unhappy with the
statue, and had tossed it down in a fit
of anger. They left it alone.
The Colossus of RhodesThe Colossus of Rhodes
Many years later, around 600 CE,
Arab traders finally removed the
remains of the Colossus to use as
scrap metal. Legend says ... it took
900 camels to ferry the pieces home.
29. Although the Colossus is no
longer in existence, another
famous work of art, inspired by
the Colossus, is still standing.
The Colossus of RhodesThe Colossus of Rhodes
It is called
The Statue of
Liberty!
32. The Lighthouse at AlexandriaThe Lighthouse at Alexandria
It was a working lighthouse that helped
ships find their way safely into harbor.
It was also a tourist
attraction.
34. The Lighthouse at AlexandriaThe Lighthouse at Alexandria
The Lighthouse at Alexandria
stood for over 1500 years.
Scientists believe an earthquake
topped the Lighthouse during the
12th
century CE, about 250 years
before Columbus discovered
America!
35. Dünyanın 7 möcüzəsi...
Qədim dövrdə ən geniş söhrət qazanmış tikili və heykəlləri belə
adlandırırlar. Təəssüf ki, insan zəkasının yaratdığı bu gözəl
incilərdən dövrümüzədək yalnız Qədim Misir Ehramları gəlib
çatmışdır. Digər tikili və heykəllərin aqibəti belə olmuşdur:
1. Semiramidanın asma bağları Fərat çayı daşqınları nəticəsində
dağıldı! Hazırda Almaniya Respublikasının mütəxəssislərinin köməyi
ilə bu bağ bərpa olunur.
2. Artemidanın Efes şəhərindəki məbədi bərpa olundu, sonra
yenidən dağıldı.
3. Olimpiyadakı məbəddə Zevsin heykəli yandı.
4. 15-ci əsrdə səlibçilər qala tikmək üçün Halikarnasdakı Mavsolun
məqbərəsini sökdülər.
5. Rodos nəhəngi zəlzələ nəticəsində məhv oldu.
6. Iskəndəriyyə mayakının taleyi də belə oldu.
7. Yalnız Misir ehramları salamat qaldı. Nahaq yerə demirlər ki,
zaman onlardan qorxur.
