Mini Lecture : Week 8 Mini-Lecture: Diversity Leadership in Community and Societal Contexts
This lecture focuses on what leaders in communities and societies, including nations, must know in leading diversity in those contexts. Some of us continue to be surprised at how “leaders” continue to forget, ignore, hope to avoid, several important influences on the process of leading diversity in these contexts. Just in the last two years we have seen U. S. state executives try to defend behaviors in their personal histories that negatively affected their credibility in the conduct of their offices. And this observation comes from significant and sustained media attention. What about those leaders in cities, areas of cities and communities about whom we do not hear, but who fail to see how personal histories may affect their work, as well as histories of communities, about which they may, or may not, be familiar. In the U. S. House of Representatives elections, candidates often try to ascertain the issues of interest to their congressional districts. Of course, depending on where that district is, it may include multiple counties of a large number of people (west Texas) or those concentrated within a few miles of each other (large urban settings). There are different kinds of communities, such as individuals who share the same religion but worship in different locations in the same city; individuals over 65 in a retirement village; people who are in a food co-op; and members of the same ethnicity in a neighborhood, as is the case in New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, where immigrants from the same country settled together. The communities on which I’m focusing are those which people are in by choice. Among such groups, what are the components that affect diversity leadership?
A. History: There are some ethnic communities that have welcomed “new” members of other ethnicities, and there are others that preferred to be closed societies. In some neighborhoods within cities, both real esta ...

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.
