Writing Assignment #1: Problem/Opportunity Identification
This term, your team will be writing a proposal to an important partner, The Lundquist College of Business Executive Council on Experiential Learning & Leadership (ExCELL) to address a critical project to be implemented in Fall 2018. For this assignment, you will write a memo that focuses on a specific constituency and a problem on which you would like to focus. Ultimately, you will try to convince your teammates they should adopt your choice of constituency and community issue for your team’s proposal project.
The Executive Council on Experiential Learning & Leadership (ExCELL):
ExCEL is committed to the development of Experiential Learning & Leadership opportunities for LCB Students. They are looking for dynamic and innovative proposals that will help students develop leadership and communication skills outside of the traditional classroom setting. Their mission is to “Prepare students for the to be leaders in the workplace through experiential learning opportunities.”
Experiential learning is the process of learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. through experience (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., and is more specifically defined as "learning through reflection on doing" Experiential learning is distinct from rote (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. or didactic (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role. It is related to, but not synonymous with, other forms of active learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. such as action learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., adventure learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., free-choice learning, cooperative learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., service-learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., and situated learning (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..
Choosing a Problem/Constituency
With these criteria in mind, think creatively and broadly about leadership and experiential learning. For example, you might choose to focus on service-learning, project-based learning or outdoor education. Your task is not to come up with a solution to a problem, but rather to :
1. Describe a significant problem
2. Pick specific constituency (group of people) in the community and,
3. Provide evidence for the problem. For example, you might provide evidence for the following problems:
· Low career-readiness, job preparedness
· Lack of experience with leadership, communication or decision-making skills
· Physical of mental health of college students
Note that each of these problems has many possible solutions. That’s good. You’ll know that you have identified a problem instead of a solution when there are many possible ways to address it. We often make the mistake of offe.

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. Review: Essay #5 Assignment
In-class essay that you will
write in class.
Can use an outline that
you will prepare
At least 750 words.
MLA-style format and
citations.
Prompt: Write an essay presenting
to your reader a well-defined
problem in education today.
Describe in detail the causes and
consequences, and convince your
audience that this is a problem
worth solving. Address your
presentation of your problem to
your audience: one or more
members of the education board,
its leadership, or to outsiders who
may be able to contribute to
solving the problem.
Note: you should not (yet) propose
a solution to this problem (that’s
for Essay #6).

5. Review: Essay #5 Research Requirement
While you can discuss your own personal experience, limit this to a
single example, and be careful not to turn this into a narrative essay
about your personal challenges in school. Rather than relying heavily on
personal experience, you should use facts, statistics, or data relevant to
the larger population affected by this problem.
To this end, quote (and cite) at least one outside source.
Harry Potter does not fulfill this requirement.
Your source should be a book or an article from a popular magazine or
newspaper.
You should locate this article using the library databases.
You should include your quote(s) and citation info from this article on
your outline.
What source did you find for your homework?
6. Review: Causes and Consequences
Causes
What is the cause of
this problem? Are
there multiple
causes?
How did this problem
come into being or
how was it created?
Ex.: A cause of school
traffic congestion
might be the lack of
public transportation
options near that
school.
Consequences
What effects does
this problem have--
on students,
educators, and/or
society at large?
Ex.: School traffic
may cause students
to be late to class,
which may cause
them to do less well
in school.
7. Now that you’ve chosen your problem
and narrowed it, what do you do?
8. The Thesis Statement
In a full proposal (essay #6), your thesis
statement will be the solution that you
are offering.
HOWEVER, Essay #4 is not a full proposal.
You are only describing a problem.
So your thesis statement for this
essay (an explanation of the problem)
should be a statement of the problem
and its causes and consequences.
9. Defining the Problem:
Writing Strategies
As you are describing the problem and discussing the
causes and consequences, you can make use of the
following strategies (from SMG, p. 324).
10. The Conclusion
You should finish your essay by:
briefly summarizing the problem.
reminding readers of its
importance.
calling readers to action by noting
the consequences of inaction.
Note: In this essay, you are not (yet)
proposing a solution!
11. Sample Essay #5
Keep in mind, this is an “out of class” response to this
assignment.
It is more polished than I am expecting from you.
12. Read and Annotate Sample Essay #5
Bracket/underline and then label the following components or
strategies:
1. The MLA-style heading
2. The informative title.
3. The thesis statement.
4. The causes of the problem.
5. The consequences of the problem.
6. A specific example of the problem.
7. Personal experience or observation (anecdote).
8. Testimony of those affected by the problem.
9. Statistics.
10. Vivid description.
11. A conclusion.
13. Where is the thesis statement?
What is the problem?
What is the cause?
What are the consequences?
19. Conclusion
Briefly restates the problem and why it is a problem.
Suggests who should care and why.
Calls us to take action.
But does not specify the action! (That’s for Essay #6)
