The document discusses key aspects of culture including social organization, language, customs, religion, arts, forms of government, and economic systems. It notes that social organization typically involves small family units that teach children norms and beliefs, and there may be social classes ranking people differently. Cultures also have their own languages, customs, religions, arts, and a variety of forms of government and economic systems ranging from traditional to market-based.
This is a PowerPoint presentation that is meant to be used as a visual-aid in the lesson on Chapter 3 in World Geography : Building a Global Perspective, or on the topic of population and culture
We come into this world naked—physically, socially, and culturally. An instinct is a form of behavior that occurs in all normal members of a species without having been learned. The human infant is born with few fixed, inherited patterns of behavior—primarily the automatic responses called reflexes, sucking, grasping, blinking, and so on (Chinoy, 1965). Unlike other living creatures humans need social experience to learn their culture and survive (Macionis, 2002-04). Only humans rely on culture rather than instinct to ensure the survival of their kind (Harris, 1987). What is “natural” to humanity is the capacity to create culture.

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.
