The poem describes a tiger that is confined to a small cage in a zoo. In the cage, the tiger quietly stalks back and forth in rage at being trapped. The poem contrasts this with how the tiger should be free in the wild, lurking in the jungle and striking fear into nearby villages. Now locked in a concrete cell, the tiger can only stare at the night sky with brilliant eyes as it listens to the last voices at night, confined by the bars that contain its strength.

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.

SUMMARY
A tiger stalks the short length of his cage in silence.
He was supposed to be free, and out in the wild.
He was supposed to be hunting, stalking, driving fear
into the hearts of those who live in the fringes of the
forest.
Instead he is locked up in a cell.
His strength has been locked up.
Even his rage is futile.
Only the brilliance in his eyes is left, as he looks up at
the night sky.

ANALYSIS OF THE
POEM: 1ST STANZA
Stripes are the first thing
that we associate with a
tiger.
The poet doesn’t mention
the tiger directly.
He starts making a sketch in
bits and pieces.
The tiger can not move
properly, its space is brutally
limited.
The tiger moves noiselessly,
his rage is also muffled in
helplessness.
He stalks in his vivid
stripes
The few steps of his
cage,
On pads of velvet
quiet
In his quiet rage.

Collegiate definition:
Stalks means to pursue
quarry or prey stealthily.
The tiger’s predatory
nature is highlighted by
using this word.
The repetition helps in
highlighting and
emphasizing the
helplessness of the tiger
in the cage.

The poet’s regret is
apparent in this stanza.
Zoo is no place for such a
beast.
He imagines the tiger out in
the wild.
The tiger is stealthily
approaching his prey.
The poet continues to sketch
the tiger.
He adds the “lurking” quality
in the previous quiet

Sliding through
long grass
Near the water hole
Where plump deer
pass.

a place of concealment especially for
an evil purpose.
The sinister nature of the tiger is
highlighted here.
He is a creature belonging to the
shadows.
He himself is like the shadow of
Death.
The sliding movement builds on
the lurking posture as we see the
tiger finally getting ready to leap.

BANALYSIS OF THE
POEM: 3RD
STANZA
A tiger is the lone ranger
of a forest.
It can, however, move out
of it too.
When in its natural
habitat, a tiger terrorises
all around him, humans
included.
The villagers are held in
thrall of his fangs and
claws which are like Death
reincarnate for them.
He should be
snarling around
houses
At the jungle’s
edge,
Baring his white
fangs, his claws,
Terrorising the
village!
20. K

WORD NOTES
Snarling
Collegiate Definition: to
growl with a snapping,
gnashing, or display of
teeth.
The fangs and claws are
symbol of death. They are
what that make a tiger a
terrible beauty.
With these he terrorises
the village.

BRIEF INTERLUDE
The poem is divided in two places: The
cage, and the wild.
The structure imitates this caged feeling.
Free wild setting is sandwiched between
the cage verses.
The use of “should”: What was expected
vs what the tiger actually got.
23. K
B
ANALYSIS OF
THE 4TH
STANZA
We are back in front of the
cage.
The strong and mighty tiger,
the living, breathing terror
has been put behind bars.
His strength and anger has
been rendered helpless.
His spirit is still
unconquered, as he stalks
his cage waiting for an
opportunity and ignoring all
the visitors seeking cheap
thrills.
But he’s locked in
a concrete cell,
His strength
behind bars,
Stalking the
length of his cage,
Ignoring the
visitors.
24. K
B
WORD NOTE
The word hints that the tiger
perhaps is put behind bars,
but his soul is still free. His
freedom is hijacked, but he
is biding his time, because
the time for his hunt is yet
to come, and he may break
free yet.

ANALYSIS OF
THE POEM: 5TH
STANZA
The poem comes to an end.
The day is also over.
The tiger is left alone.
He looks up at the sky.
The brilliance of the stars are
reflected in his eyes.
Do they signify the undefeated
spirit of the tiger?
Is he simply reminiscing the
golden old days when he
roamed free in the forest?
He hears the last
voice at night,
The patrolling
cars,
And stares with
his brilliant eyes
At the brilliant
stars.

NOTE

the poem.

CONTEMPLATION ON THE
ENDING
The regret is clear in the final verse
stanza.
The ambiguous nature of “brilliant”.
May mean the indomitable spirit of
the tiger.
May also mean simple nostalgic
reminiscence.

FORMS AND FIGURES
Rhyme scheme: abcb pattern
Personification: Non living or subhuman beings are
treated like a human being. Note the use of “he” for
tiger.
Alliteration: Repetition of same consonant sound in
close succession. For example: plump deer pass, he
hears etc.
Metaphor: An implicit comparison is made between
velvet and the tiger’s padded paws, to indicate the soft
and quiet nature of both.
Metonymy: The part “strength” is used to indicate the
whole body of the tiger. When a part is used to indicate
the whole, that figure is called metonymy.
31. K
B
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE TITLE
The poem shows us a tiger in two different
circumstances. We see it behind the bars,
and we imagine it in the wild. However, the
tiger in the poem is actually behind the
bars, and imagining it in the wild only
heightens the regret and anger of seeing
the same majestic creature put inside a
cage. A Tiger in the Zoo thus succinctly
brings out the contrast between the image
that the word “tiger” generates in our mind
and a cage. Therefore the title is quite apt.
32. K
B
CONSERVATION OF NATURE
Everyone has their own place and cage is
not a place for creatures born free, born
wild. The poet as if subtly hints at the fact
that instead of caging animals like tigers in
the name of conservation, we should give
proper effort in developing a safe forest
area to conserve their natural habitat.
Otherwise, they will keep encroaching upon
the poor villagers who depends on the
forest for their livelihood and finally end up
in some cage or the other.
