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.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Purpose of Copyright
Encourage the development of new and
original works and to stimulate their wide
distribution by ensuring that their creators
will be fairly compensated for the
contributions to society.
3. How does one Obtain a
Copyright?
• A work created prior to 1976 must be registered
with Copyright Office.
• With the 1976 copyright law, work is protected
as soon as it is in “fixed tangible form.”
4. Duration of Copyright
• Lasts for the life of the author plus 70
years.
• Works created before 1923 are in public
domain
• Works created from 1923-1978 have
varying periods of copyright.
10. 4
Effect of use
on market for or
value of work
11. Possible Scenarios of
Copyright Infringement
• Copying, electronically redistributing and
scanning full works
• Posting a full work on Blackboard & requiring
students to print it or send it to OneNote
• Saving a YouTube video to your tablet for future
use
12. Possible Options
If material does not fall under “fair use”…
Can you obtain permission to make
multiple copies?
Can you use materials from resources
Brophy subscribes to?
13. Possible Options
Can you purchase copies for students?
Will a license with the Creative Commons help?
Can you use materials available through the
public domain?
Is there an educational Web site that grants
permission for educational use?

Editor's Notes
The topic is copyright and fair use! I’m Not a licensed legal professional who practices intellectual property law in Arizona. In fact, the more I study this topic, the more questions I have. I have received some questions from you as you look for materials to use in your classes. I usually rely in this book by Carol Simpson… Copyright for Schools – a Practical Guide. Sometimes it can answer our questions. However, I have to say that the more I study this topic, the more questions I have. However, Bob and Seamus asked me to discuss copyright and fair use in the school environment, so I told him that I would give it a try. Each department uses different materials, varying media and has different scenarios. So this discussion will be very general.
Copyright law is designed to promote creativity and the growth of knowledge by balancing the rights of owners with the rights of users;
Before 1976, very specific requirements had to be met -- paperwork was to be filed , it had to be determined that the work was published prior to registration and appropriate fees had to be paid. (p. 7 Simpson, 2010) Fixed tangible form means it is : 1. written on paper, 2. painted on canvas, 3. saved to disk, 4. recorded on tape or other recording medium, 5. exposed on film 6. is saved in any other method that creates a permanent record of the creation. (pg 40 – 4th line: There has been no clear legal assessment of whether a Web page is published when is it mounted on the Web or whether something distributed within an organization (such as your school) is officially “published.” p. 8 Neither Registration nor a notice is not required to achieve a copyright, but it is needed before a suit is filed.
Many of the current scenarios using the latest technologies have not been tested in court. We do know, however, that digital resources should undergo the same four tests of fair use.
Pg. 36 Fair use provisions in the copyright law grant users conditional permission to use or reproduce certain copyrighted materials as long as certain guidelines are met. We’ll go over each of the four guidelines. This first factor: Purpose and character of use may be the easiest one to assessPg 38 – it encourages educational use of materials for non profit public or private schools – so fair use encourages educational use of materials. News reporting, commentary and criticism also qualify for “fair use”, so a criticism or review of a movie would allow a short clip of a movie or work.

News reporting, commentary and criticism also qualify for “fair use”, so a criticism or review of a movie would allow a short clip of a movie or work.
There are TWO parts to this factor. 1. is the work factual or creative? Facts cannot receive copyright protection. However, creative works, such as literature, art and music are protected. So factual information from newspaper articles, encyclopedia articles and maps would probably qualify for a fair use assessment. The second factor has to do with whether the work is published or not. … you will have a stronger case of fair use if you copy the material from a published work than an unpublished work. ------------------------------------------------------------------Because the dissemination of facts or information benefits the public, you have more leeway to copy from factual works such as biographies than you do from fictional works such as plays or novels. In addition, you will have a stronger case of fair use if you copy the material from a published work than an unpublished work. The scope of fair use is narrower for unpublished works because an author has the right to control the first public appearance of his or her expression.
This factor deals with how much of the work will you use? The less you use, the better.Any time that you use ALL of something (whether it’s a poem, short story, article, book, or musical work) there are going to be questions about this factor. (no such thing as a 10PERCENT rule) It’s not black and white – the term “essence of the work” is used withthis factor. If one uses a part of a work that embodies the entire piece within a small segment one “in essence” used the entire work. FIND AN EXAMPLE OF THIS!!! PG 40-41 The less you take, the more likely that your copying will be excused as a fair use. However, even if you take a small portion of a work, your copying will not be a fair use if the portion taken is the “heart” of the work. In other words, you are more likely to run into problems if you take the most memorable aspect of a work. For example, it would probably not be a fair use to copy the opening guitar riff and the words “I can’t get no satisfaction” from the song “Satisfaction.” Pg. 55 Here are a few guidelines : If a poem is fewer than 250 words and is printed on not more than 2 pages it may be copied in its entirety. If a complete story, article, or essay is less than 2500 words, it may be copied in its entirety. One illustration , such as a chart, graph, cartoon or picture may be copied per book or periodical issue. You can never modify the illustration. A teacher may make only one copiy to include in a PowerPoint or presenation or present to the class. Any copies must be used in the classroom for students and not to distribute to other teachers or your department – that’s infringement.
The Supreme Court has said that this factor is the single most important element of fair use (pg 41) Pg 42 If your use would deprive someone of sales of the item this factor would come into play. Pg 42 If your use would somehow harm the original author or his ability to capitalize on his work, this factor can become significant. Pg 42 – they give an example of microsoft linking to the Ticketmaster ..deep link – misrepresented their relationship. Ticketmaster contested it, and it was agreed that MS could link only to the HOME page outside of the microsoft frame.
Full works means – full book, full article, full poem , full song…
