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.
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 Olympic Charter
• “Olympism is a philosophy of life, where
blending sport and culture with art and
education aims to combine in a balanced
whole the human qualities of body, will and
mind.”
• “Olympism is a way of life based on respect
for human dignity and fundamental
universal ethical principles, on the joy of
effort and participation, on the educational role
of good example, a way of life based on mutual
understanding.”
Professor Andy Miah, PhD University of the West of Scotland, UK email@andymiah.net

rings has become reduced to a set of financial

21. INTRODUCTION: ETHICS AND THE OLYMPICS
The challenge from Olympism is to engage with the
contested claims of universals and particulars.
As a unifying philosophical project, the Olympic
Movement must assuage to a series of relativist
claims, which limit its capacity to fully aspire to the
universal values of sport.
Professor Andy Miah, PhD University of the West of Scotland, UK email@andymiah.net
22. INTRODUCTION: ETHICS AND THE OLYMPICS
Overarching Questions
• Where should we look for an ethical
foundation to Olympism?
• Are there instances of universally
accepted values within the Olympic
Movement?
Professor Andy Miah, PhD University of the West of Scotland, UK email@andymiah.net
23. INTRODUCTION: ETHICS AND THE OLYMPICS
Discussion:
The Olympic Torch Relay
• After Beijing 2008, the IOC have questioned
the role of the torch relay’s international leg
indicating that it will cease to exist.
• Yet, the relay is the single live moment that
contributes most to the democratization of the
Olympic Games, an otherwise restricted
public experience.
• Is it right to curtail the international leg of
the relay?
