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 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. Solid Electrolytes
• Electrolyte is a substance that conducts electricity through the movement of ions.
• Most electrolytes are solutions or molten salts, but some electrolytes are solids and
some of those are crystalline solids.
• Different names are given to such materials:
1. Solid Electrolyte
2. Fast Ion Conductor
3. Superionic Conductor
• Solid electrolytes are an unusual group of materials which have high ionic
conductivity with negligible electronic conductivity.

3. Ionic v/s Electronic Conductivity
18-03-2016 3
• Let’s begin by comparing the properties of ionic conductors with the conventional
electronic conductivity of metals.
4. General Characteristics: Solid Electrolytes
1. A large number of the ions of one species should be mobile. This requires a
large number of empty sites, either vacancies or accessible interstitial sites.
Empty sites are needed for ions to move through the lattice.
2. The empty and occupied sites should have similar potential energies with a
low activation energy barrier for jumping between neighboring sites.
3. The structure should have solid framework, permeated by open channels. The
migrating ion lattice should be “molten”, so that a solid framework of the
other ions is needed in order to prevent the entire material from melting.
4. The framework ions (usually anions) should be highly polarizable. Such ions
can deform to stabilize transition state geometries of the migrating ion
through covalent interactions.
18-03-2016 4
5. Molten Sublattice (1/2 Melting)
• In the best ionic conductors one ion becomes so mobile that for all intensive purposes
those ions are in a “molten” state.
• This behavior can be seen in part from the entropies of the observed phase transitions,
where the Ag (and F respectively) sublattice melts prematurely.

8. Na+ Ion Conductors
• Na3Zr2PSi2O12 (NASICON)
• Framework of corner sharing ZrO6
octhahedra and PO4/SiO4 tetrahedra
• Na+ ions occupy trigonal prismatic
and octahedral sites, ¼ of the Na+
sites are empty
• EA ~ 0.3 eV

NaAl7O11 (Na2O.nAl2O3)
• FCC like packing of oxygen.
• Every fifth layer ¾ of the O2- ions are
missing, Na+ ions present.
• These layers are sandwiched between
spinel blocks.
• 2D ionic conductor.
9. Applications of Solid Electrolytes
• There are numerous practical applications, all based on electrochemical cells, where ionic
conductivity is needed and it is advantageous/necessary to use solids for all components.
• In such cells ionic conductors are needed for either the electrodes, the electrolyte or both.
• Solid electrolytes have found applications in several areas, including
(a) gas sensors
(b) Separators
(c) solid oxide fuel cells
(d) solid-state batteries.
• In addition, solid electrolytes have been used in the construction of solid electrolyte cell
reactors (SECRs), in which heterogeneous catalytic reactions have been studied. Also,
SECRs have been used as chemical co-generative fuel cells, i.e., for the simultaneous
production of electricity and useful compounds.

10. Schematic of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell
• Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are a class
of fuel cells characterized by the use of a
solid oxide material as the electrolyte.
• SOFC is an electrochemical conversion
device that produces electricity directly
from oxidizing a fuel.
• SOFCs use a solid oxide electrolyte to
conduct negative oxygen ions from the
cathode to the anode.
• The electrochemical oxidation of the
oxygen ions with hydrogen or carbon
monoxide thus occurs on the anode side.
• They operate at very high temperatures,
typically between 500 and 1,000 °C.

12. Schematic of Rechargeable Li+-Battery
• A Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery in
which Li-ions move from the negative electrode to
the positive electrode during discharge and back
when charging.
• Li-ion batteries use an
intercalated lithium compound as one electrode
material.
• Handheld electronics mostly use LIBs based on
lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2), which offers high
energy density, but presents safety risks.
• Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4), Lithium
manganese oxide (LMnO) and Lithium nickel
manganese cobalt oxide (LiNiMnCoO2) offer lower
energy density, but longer lives and inherent safety.
18-03-2016 12
13. O2 Gas Sensor
• The partial pressure of oxygen in the
sample gas, PO2(sample), can be
determined from the measured potential,
V, via the Nernst equation.
V = (RT/4F) ln[(PO2(ref))/(PO2(sample))]
• Because of the low ionic conductivity at
low temperatures, the sensor is only useful
above 650 ºC.
• High concentration of anion vacancies is
necessary for O2- hopping to occur.
• Its two electrodes provide an output
voltage corresponding to the quantity of
oxygen in the exhaust relative to that in the
atmosphere.
18-03-2016 13
14. Separator Schematic
• A separator is a permeable membrane placed
between a battery’s anode and cathode.
• The main function of a separator is to keep the
two electrodes apart to prevent electrical short
circuits, while also allowing the transport of
ionic charge carriers that are needed to close the
circuit during the passage of current in
an electrochemical cell.
• Solid ion conductors, can serve as both separator
and the electrolyte.
