Philadelphia Projects and at Sunnycrest Farm for boys. The time-period and culture feel authentic and the tone is consistently dramatic. The pilot offers a cast of likable and charming characters driven by the emotional goals and struggles. The opening is strong and easily pulls the audience into the pilot as well as nicely sets the tone as well as firmly establishes the culture and time-period. The image of opening with JFK speaking in the North Philly projects to a mostly Negro crowd is smart.

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.

6. Shameless is produced by Company Pictures, an
independent British television production company. As
well as Shameless it has created; Wild at Heart, Skins,
and Talk To Me. It tends to work with the same group
of writers and directors including Paul Abbott, Bryan
Elsley and Danny Brocklehurst.
Paul Abbott created the initial ideas for Shameless and
is now an executive producer on the show as well as
still writing some episodes.
Shameless
The makers
7. Shameless can be classed as a comedy drama as it
mixes key conventions from both genres. It has the
classic conventions of a drama series; recurring
characters, multiple plot lines, realistic dialogues and
settings and key themes running through the
programme. It mixes these with moments of high
comedy and humour and also by exaggerating normal
social situations or expectations.

The audience
Class
I believe that the audience of Shameless
fit into the C1-E demographic. I think those
in the A & B categories would not fully
understand the humour and themes of
the show and the lifestyle of the characters.
Age
I believe that the audience of Shameless
fit into the 17-50 age group. I think the language
and sexual content of some the show means
it is not suitable for younger viewers. Although
some of the characters depicted in the show
been younger than this.
Gender
I believe that the audience of Shameless
are both genders because the representations
of both sexes is so strong in the show.
Ethnicity
I believe that the audience of Shameless
fit into various ethnic categories. The show
depicts characters who are white,
black, mixed race, Asian and Irish. It is a
realistic representation of the multi-cultural
country we live in.
Lifestyle
I believe that most of the audience of Shameless
have at some point come from a working class
background and have experienced some of the
themes presented in the show.

Study.
Shameless
Textual Analysis
10. The narrative in the clip is about a DSS officer coming to check who actually lives in the
Gallagher household so that they can make sure there are no fraudulent claims being made.
Sheila answers the mans questions without thinking and gives away the fact that two of the
children they are claiming for do not actually live there anymore. Frank then tries to talk his
way out it but the DSS officer walks into the house and its clear he’s going nowhere.
The meaning created in the clip is to set the audience up for another episode of Frank trying
to lie, cheat and scam his way out of trouble or responsibility. It also reinforces the
characterisation of Frank as a no-good layabout who does not want to work but would
rather claim benefits and even ones he is not entitled to.
This attracts the target audience because it might be a situation some of them have found
themselves in (trying to scrape by in life), it also reinforces the themes in the show as the
audience know that Frank will inevitably come up with some crazy or weird scheme in order
to get himself out of trouble again and this will create humour – one of the main reasons
the audience watch the show.
