The document discusses the conventions used in the author's media products, including a music video, digipak, and music advert. Specifically:
1) The music video utilizes conventions such as narrative, variety of shots, artist lip syncing, and resolution, but challenges conventions by using friendship rather than romance as the relationship.
2) The digipak follows conventions like close-up of artist, song titles, and consistent color scheme.
3) The music advert includes conventions such as album title, image of cover, and information on listening platforms.
Across all products, the author uses the same color scheme and imagery to create a cohesive brand for the artist. Conventions are employed but

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

4. Why I chose those Conventions
Graham Burton suggests that media products use a process of repetition and recognition leading to anticipation and expectation. I
believe this is displayed clearly throughout my video by utilising conventions such as props to show my protagonist is a soldier and
injured as well as a stop watch to create that sense of anticipation. Audiences expect to see conventions of the genre in a product. Rick
Altman argues that genre is a blueprint, as a formula that precedes, programmes and patterns industry production. I used this to my
advantage and took ideas from music videos I analysed such as If We Ever Meet Again and We Don’t Talk Anymore as well as the
inspiration behind my video Waiting All Night. Sven E Carson would argue that my artist is the televised bard of his modern mythic
embodiment. You identify this due to the conventions of having a serious story, various longshots of areas of interest as well as
medium shots of the struggling soldier. The artist is also filmed only in areas that the main characters of the story also have. Most of
the close-ups are of my artist as that fitted in with the conventions of the dance/pop genre, whereas the story has more medium shots
to mimic the feeling of the scenes. I still used the convention of having a relationship in a music video, but I changed it to suit my own
needs, rather than have a romantic relationship I decided to use a friendship which I believed better fit the lyrics of the song, therefore
you could argue I challenged this convention. With regards to the narrative I used Todorov’s Theory of equilibrium, this conforms to
the stereotype of pop videos having an issue then resolution, which usually involves a happy ending, which my video also has. However
the story line itself does not conform to the usual storyline of music videos of boy meets girl. I decided not to do this as my target
audience prefers a more diverse storyline. I also used Andrew Goodwin’s theory of the pace matching the visuals. While the soldier is
learning to deal with his injuries the pace of the song is very slow, once he learnt to deal with the issues and took up running thanks to
his friend the songs pace increases to match the pace of the editing.
5. Continued
The colour scheme I chose for my video was based on my research, A common
theme for colour schemes was to use three complimentary colours, arguably I
went against the typical pop convention of having bright colours for the artist. I
did this because I portrayed my artist as a serious one, but still slightly fun. For
example the bright red lips featured throughout, on the digipak, front cover and in
the music video.

10. Why I chose to use these conventions
My artist is a pop singer but the song itself was put together by a DJ and so is
classed into the dance-pop sub genre. The conventions I used to make my music
promotion into a brand was things such as using the same typography and
colour scheme across both the digipak, music advert and music video. I also used
similar imagery throughout all products, for example the shot of the artist looking
out at sea is used in the digipak and music video. I chose not to use a direct
mode of address as I believed that it would fit better with the brand of my artist.
It helped anchor the representation of my artist and better appealed to my target
audience.
