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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Joe Average The Incredible Thinking
Man 1991
Joe Average My Thinking Cap
2007
3. Joe Average is a Canadian artist who lives in Vancouver
. His colorful and vibrant art showcases his mood as he
lives with AIDS . He committed to art to challenge his
mind and overcome his disease. His bright and upbeat
way of life has been expressed in his charitable efforts .
4. Made in 2007 My thinking cap. Joe Average in the painting
speaks directly at his life living with aids .It expressed the need
for humans to be loved and to have a sense of purpose in life .
This painting was very much emotional but really made me
happy because it showed how AIDS people take on their life .
How pills on his nose really said to me that life without
medication would impact on how people faced with this disease
have to live .The value and intensity in the painting really make
the colors pop out as well as the lines outlined in black . He
makes them stand out by using bright acrylic paint as well as
gouache a type of gloss used to make the colors match . After
learning about Joe and his battle with AIDS I really now know
why his paintings are so unique and proves that you can really do
anything if you put your mind to it .As Joe said his paintings
aren't about him more about the child in him.
5. The incredible thinking man 1999 . Joe Average hates a couple of
things and one of them being looking in the mirror . In this
particular piece the subject he tried to label the art with was once
you look into your eye it changes your view of you . His self
portrait is covered on what look likes shapes but it is not . Those
shapes are actually shards of glass because he had to keep
picking up the pieces to keep himself going . For someone living
with a disease like AIDS 20 years ago their was no hope to live
and this picture unlike his other pieces ,this one gave me a very
sad feeling .The bright and happy colors are still their but the
picture itself isn't . The lines and value are very detailed and fine
but in his other paintings there is not much detail . The acrylic
paint and black fine line are toned down a bit in this particular
piece as well as the buzz it gives off . The picture really expressed
to me why his paintings are so amazing it’s the courage gone in to
them .
7. Originally born in England , Ted Harrison in the 1960s
left his home town for Northern Canada .He has been
painting ever since . Those ridged and vibrant colors of
Canada's North .
8. Artic Night 1990 . Ted Harrison in this particular piece
contrasts the paining with two subjects . The frozen lakes
of the Artic can be seen in the back but as you get closer
the Artic style of life is also decrypt. The sky is almost all
black but when you look closer you can see a yellow ball of
light above the sea . The moon .To make the painting look
so real Ted Harrison prefers working with gouache and
acrylic paint like Joe Average . I found this painting gave off
a calming effect , which I prefer because you can focus
more on one part of the picture other then several details .I
found that this painting had a lot of value and intensity in
the colors making them stand out not using fine line . The
space was also a very positive aspect for this painting as it
had many different aspects almost like the painting was
telling a story .
9. Tree Planting 1991 . In this painting Ted Harrison showed
what Native people do in the winter or spring to begin the
sign of a new growth . Planting trees was a painting done to
re- creative the event . In the painting you can see the
various elements of the mountain or hill . I think Ted
Harrison's message in this painting was that if we all work
together towards one thing we will accomplish it . As you
get to the top of the painting you can see the full sized tree
symbolizing a job done well . Something in common with
Ted Harrisons other paintings is the amount of primary
colors used as well as the bold landscapes .
11. Emily Carr was born and raised in Victoria in the early
1800s . As she developed in her community and in her
art she soon started traveling the coast of British
Columbia . Her early inspiration grew from the
environment as shown in her paintings . Emily Carr
has won many different awards in writing and in her
art . From First Nation subjects to forests Emily Carr
expresses her compassion about painting in her work .
12. A Rushing sea of undergrowth 1932 – 1935 .Emily Carr in
the painting makes the woods look like they are in new
growth in how widely spread out they are . Their roots are
almost bursting off the page into the underbrush . The use
of primary colors as well as the space used is evident . This
is a very dark painting but the detail in it makes it flow
really well . Oddly enough Emily Carr used gasoline to thin
done her paint . She was even able to use charcoal to have
freedom to experiment techniques .To make the vibrant
colors simple artist paint was used . Its not the media used
to make Carr's art so wonderful its her that does .
13. Forest Clearing 1939 . The trees curve and move almost
making a protecting bubble for you to go in . The
warm red colors as well as the style of blurriness make
it almost feel like a distant memory of which you forget
. The subject of the art being a forest really makes it
stand out in simplicity . This was a happy painting of
Emily Carr's because of the primary and warm colors
in it . The water colors it self make it a feel almost at
peace with the world .
14. Today I showed you three complex , unordinary artist and
their work . I started out my PowerPoint with Joe Average
and his exceptional story and meaning of life . His happy
and vibrant paintings show him . Then sunsets and tundra
followed of Ted Harrison . His paintings really express the
way of life Artic people have . Emily Carr was definitely a
outsider in style between these artist showing the dark
Native scenes to forests in British Columbia. Joe Average
brings the regular day to day scenes and then Ted Harrison
and Emily Carr showing what life is to them individually as
artists . One thing is the same though between the artists .
The compassion and love they take in their work .
