Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. INTRODUCTION
The social studies encompass diverse concern of society and include a wide
range of content drawn from the disciplines of History, Geography, Political
Science, Economics, Sociology, Anthropology, Civil etc… the selection and
organization of material into meaningful social studies curriculum, one that
will develop a critical modern standing of society, is therefore a challenging
task.
Advancements and refinement continue to be made in instructional tech-
nology instructional systems that include lesson formats books, films, sides
and other media are being produced for a variety of units and course, Edu-
cational television and video tapes of selected programs, film produced by
T.V Net works and TV equipments for use in classroom are very useful in
many units of instruction in social studies. Computerized programs of in-
struction have been tried out in many classrooms, and instructional media
center now provide a variety of services ranging from collection and distri-
bution of materials to the actual bundling of classroom projects by remote
control. Audio-visual arts are viewed as integral part of the teaching system.
3. USE OF COMPUTERS IN SOCIAL STUDIES
The use of computers in educations has been promoted so vig-
orously that it is estimated that, by the end of this decade micro com-
puters will be a part of instructional media of all schools. It is presumed,
therefore, that the pre service preparation of teachers will familiarize
them with the basic knowledge and skills needed to operate a computer,
an ability currently referred to as computer literacy in the social studies,
as in other curricular areas, the challenge to the teachers is to integrate
the use of new technology in to the ongoing instructional program of the
classroom.
One of the major differences between the com-
puter and other instructional media is that the computer has the capacity to
interact with the students. The computer does not simply present material
to be learned as in the case with a film, filmstrip, or a recording. The com-
puter requires the operator to do something in order for the process to
precede this interactive characteristic of computers applications facilitate
for the pacing of instruction and for individualizing learning. For example,
with conversional instructional materials, the program of what is to be
learned is fixed only the time allowed to complete it can be varied from one
student to the next. The computer, however, has the capacity to diagnose
an individual learner’s knowledge of the subject or skill, to call up a program
appropriate for the learner and to adjust the complexity of the presenta-
tion accordingly in the social studies class, the contribution of computer as-
sisted instruction (CAI) falls in to the following four categories.
Using the computer to obtain needed information or to retrieve infor-
mation stored in the computer. There are a growing number of collec-
tions of data, known as ‘databases’ many of which are relevant of social
studies. Ability to access to these data base and use the computer data-
lone service are essential skill in this ‘high tech’
4. 1) Using the computer to particle and apply social studies skill such as map
reading, graph reading, chart interpretation, thinking and problem solv-
ing computer program of this kind are referred to as “drill and practice”
2) Using the computer for tutorial assistance in providing a sequential pro-
gram for the development and elaboration of concept and knowledge
that all students are expected to learn. These are essentially course of
study that have been programmed for the computer
3) To administer, standardize, scoring and interpreting large scale test in
social studies for decision making.
4) Using computer for specialized presentation such as simulation division
making situations analysis of given data interpreting information needed
to solve a problem or a series of related problems.
ADVANTEGE OF CAI
Computer assisted instruction proves better than all other aid in several re-
spect. There in not only saving of time in learning. But it also purpose miracles
in processing the performance data. This latter characteristic helps to deter-
mine sub sequent activities in the learning situation. The large amount of in-
formation stored in computer is need available to learn more rapidly than by
any other medium. The dynamic interaction between student and instructional
programs not possible to be sound in any of the medium with CAI we could
completely individualize materials. Before computers can any use they must be
carefully programmed to perform desired functions. This requires to planning
of every step and prior thinking computers are simple minded. They demand
instruction spelled out in explicit detail. Human beings are brilliant but rather
sloppy thinker’s computers are stupid but access rate.
LIMITATIONS OF CAI
Although computers open the possibility of educating the students completely
by individualized programs its chief limitation lies in the fact that it is prohibi-
tively expensive. Computer may also inject a non human quality to education-
al programs. This new technology may dehumanize man further all individual-
ized instruction and CAI instruct the student in such a way that all will achieve
the same of company
5. COMPACT DISCS
The advent of compact disc has reached the time required to search and gath-
er reformation on any topic. The entire encyclopedia Britannica can be stored
in single compact disc A large text book can be stored in a classified manner
in a disc. The computer scans the CDs and gives the information in a few sec-
onds. DDs on different topic in various disciplines are available for social stud-
ies although abstract in and indexing services may be available only in CD ROM
in the near future
INTERNET
Internet is a large collection of computer network that can communicate with
each other. When connect our computer to the internet we become the part
of the large network. The World Wide Web (www) is a vast collection of docu-
ments stored on internet computers. A web document can contain text, pic-
tures, sound, and videos. In social studies teaching internet has following func-
tion.
1. E-mailing: The electronic mail service enhances the communication
and global presentation of the students.
2. Remote login: the users any were in the world can login to any other
machine on which they have an account.
3. News and information: Thousands of news groups such as topics in-
cluding social studies, recreation and politics are available in the in-
ternets which can each social studies learning.
4. Transfer of files: Vast number of articles data base and other infor-
mation from internet and virtual libraries can be copied from one
machine on the internet to another.
VIDEO CONFERENCING
Educational video conferencing is a voluble medium in social
studies instruction video conferencing is an electronic means which can being
together there or four people in two or more location to discuss or share with
the use of twos way and one any medium with full motion and slow scan, elec-
tronic blackboards facsimile, computer graphic, radio, satellite and media tax
however most essential part of video conferencing is a good quality audio to
help immediate interaction among the participates for information exchange
6. Video conferencing is an effective support for remote learners the cost of vid-
eo conferencing usually low. The quality of instruction in social studies can be
maintained high because of the need of careful and early preparation. The vid-
eo conferencing system provides the facility to the learners for immediate
feedback.
CONCLUSION
Internet and computer has become the most popular one among all computer
based instructional strategies in the social studies classroom it is clear that the
current development in telecommunication technology makes the internet
more accessible to anybody in addition social studies content requires substan-
tive knowledge and the internet is a great source for this the internet provides
a wide variety of source which respect different point of view using source
which represent different world views is one of the best ways to poster stu-
dents critical thinking, creative thinking, problem solving and decision making
skills. However, literature review shows that teacher views the internet basi-
cally for personal purpose such as to find information and other resources, and
together background information for planning rather than a teaching and
learning activities in the classroom.
On the other and other strategies such as data base development,
games, multimedia, hypermedia, web quest, and tale collaboration also signifi-
cantly contribute to students critical thinking, problem solving, and decision
making skill, moreover, there kinds of strategies might poster students creativi-
ty because their strategies require creation and construction abilities and ideas
from students. In my opinion all computer based instructional strategies
somehow reinforce the constructivist classroom environment. However, social
studies teachers still are not comfortable with applying all or some computer
based instructional strategies. We believe that a follow up study can be done
to preview the beliefs and attitudes of social studies teachers to word their
strategies. The results of the study might reveal the reason for the lack of using
computer-based instructional strategies among social studies teachers.
