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.

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.

difficult
• Travel agents and credit card companies keep records
however many people book their own not only for
holidays but also sporting events and festivals
• There is even less information available about visits to
friends and relatives because of their informal and
impromptu nature
• Even international tourism is sometimes hard to
measure
• Many border crossings within the EU (European Union)
are no longer controlled so people crossing from
Germany to France for example will not be recorded

22. Ecotourism – The Galapagos Islands
Ecotourism – The Galapagos Islands
• The islands are famous because there are animals there that are not found
anywhere else in the world. Enabled Charles Darwin to form his theory of
evolution.
How Tourism is Managed?
• They only visit on small boats of 10-16 people which are owned by locals
• Only allowed to visit certain places on the islands
• Have to pay a £25 fee that goes towards conservation of the islands
• Visitors are educated in how to protect and conserve island life while they
are there
• Cost is very expensive so puts off mass tourism
Benefits
• Ecotourism offers jobs for the locals without damaging the environment.
• Local people run small hotels and provide for the needs of tourists not
hotel chains
• Companies run by locals to provide boat trips around island
• Money earned stays with the locals rather than going to large hotel chains
• Improves locals quality of life
