The document discusses bicycles as a system composed of subsystems. It defines a system as a set of entities that interact with each other, and a subsystem as a set of elements that is itself a system and part of the whole. It prompts the reader to think about their experience with bicycles and how they work. It links to an article about the history and design of early bicycles. It asks the reader to identify bicycle parts and subsystems, and to choose one to research in more detail, answering questions about its function, how it affects the bicycle, and how understanding bicycle systems relates to understanding the human body.

Renewable Sources of Energy- Dynamo in Bicycle
How can we use a renewable Energy Source to ride a bicycle which can emit light in the night and that too, without no money spent?
This Presentation depicts the production of electricity by simply paddling your bicycle.
Of course it is a little expensive, but surely it is better than the battery system...
You can apply it too in your bicycle!

Inspiring Alignment and Autonomy - The Leaders Role in Scaling Agile
In small development organizations, software teams are usually able to deliver value independently of other teams. In these organizations, it is easy to give teams total autonomy. What happens as the company and systems grow to where there are multiple teams to organize and deliver value together? Usually the response from the leadership team is to align the teams, but that alignment is usually at the expense of the teams’ autonomy. How are teams supposed to be both aligned and autonomous? What is the role of leadership in both aligning the teams around a common purpose and building the environment so the teams remain autonomous?
In this session we’re going to learn how to be an empowering leader who uses alignment as a pre-condition to high autonomy. We’ll learn a recipe for creating alignment and how having alignment and autonomy relates to Daniel Pink’s Autonomy, Mastery, Purpose and to David Marquet’s Leader’s Give Control models.

Inspiring Alignment and Autonomy - The Leaders Role in Scaling Agile
In small development organizations, software teams are usually able to deliver value independently of other teams. In these organizations, it is easy to give teams total autonomy. What happens as the company and systems grow to where there are multiple teams to organize and deliver value together? Usually the response from the leadership team is to align the teams, but that alignment is usually at the expense of the teams’ autonomy. How are teams supposed to be both aligned and autonomous? What is the role of leadership in both aligning the teams around a common purpose and building the environment so the teams remain autonomous?
In this session we’re going to learn how to be an empowering leader who uses alignment as a pre-condition to high autonomy. We’ll learn a recipe for creating alignment and how having alignment and autonomy relates to Daniel Pink’s Autonomy, Mastery, Purpose and to David Marquet’s Leader’s Give Control models.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
