Dependency theory posits that peripheral, less developed nations are dependent on core countries for their economic development, which hinders their ability to develop and benefits core nations. It was developed by Raul Prebisch in response to global disparities and argues that the structure of the world economy favors core countries over peripheral ones. The theory is illustrated through Haiti's history as a peripheral nation dependent on France during colonial rule, which left it impoverished despite producing valuable exports.

The IB Geography syllabus specifies several skills that should be mastered during the course. The skills are not assessed explicitly in external exams but they are assessed implicitly via data response questions and the expectations of quality essays. The internal assessment based on geographic fieldwork and geography extended essays are the main ways that students have opportunity to demonstrate their geographic skills.

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 Dependency Theory
1.
2. Some Background
• Developed by a U.N. director, Raul
Prebisch
o In response to concern over disparities in
development worldwide
• Peripheral countries
o nations that are "weaker", or less developed
o eg. Haiti
• Core countries
o nations that have major influence, and are the
most developed
o eg. France, United States
3. What is the Theory?
• Dependency is...
"...an historical condition which shapes a certain structure of the world
economy such that it favors some countries to the detriment of others and
limits the development possibilities of the subordinate economics."
("The Structure of Dependency" p.226)
• Peripheral nations are dependent on core
countries
o Dependent nations' development will remain
stagnant while core nations will continue to develop
5. Case Study: Haiti
• A "peripheral" nation
• Belonged to France from
1660 to 1804
• During French rule, produced 60% of Europe's coffee
and 40% of its sugar
• Much of population was, and still is, impoverished
• 2010 earthquake
o Destruction of much of its existing infrastructure
o United States response to earthquake was praised
o Haiti remains in dependent, peripheral status

6. Strengths Weaknesses
• Simplicity
• Promotion of core
• Worldwide theory
•
dominance
• Has multiple
Limited definition of
development
applications
• Cynical
• Too simple!
