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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

communica+on

3. “Student engagement is the product of
motivation and active learning. It is a
product, rather than a sum because it will
not occur if either element is missing. ”
-‐
Elizabeth
Barkley
5. Know Your Role
• As
ac+ve
facilitators
and
teachers
in
the
online
classroom,
faculty
have
the
responsibility
to
ensure
students
meet
the
required
amount
of
credit
hours
in
the
classroom.
• Faculty
members
are
responsible
for
being
ac+vely
present
in
the
discussion
forums
that
can
be
for
4-‐7
days
out
of
the
week.
• Consistent
visibility
in
the
discussion
forum
encourages
students
to
post,
feel
supported,
and
expand
on
their
ideas.
• The
discussion
forum
is
the
heart
of
the
classroom,
and
can
be
compared
to
a
student
siOng
in
a
classroom
face-‐to-‐face
seOng.
ONE
You are a very
important part of
the classroom
environment.
Without you, the
students do not
learn.
6. Remain Active and Present
• What
does
only
pos+ng
the
minimum
say
to
your
students?
It
may
say
that
you
do
not
care
about
the
class.
• It
may
also
say
you
do
not
care
about
them.
In
the
case
of
the
online
classroom,
percep+on
is
reality.
• You
will
reap
what
you
sow
when
your
students
mirror
a
high
level
of
energy
and
par+cipa+on.
• Check
in
with
students
and
remind
them
of
upcoming
deadlines
or
requirements
of
an
assignment
and
offer
your
assistance.
• Provide
feedback
that
is
both
posi+ve
and
substan+ve.
Give
encouraging
comments.
ONE
You can always
do a little bit
more to help
students feel
welcome in the
course.
Go above and
beyond to help
your students.
8. Get to Know Your Students
The
first
day
of
class:
• Make
it
mandatory
for
students
to
post
a
detailed
introduc+on
and
then
personally
respond
to
each
one.
• Set
the
tone
by
crea+ng
a
safe
and
friendly
learning
environment
so
students
feel
comfortable
par+cipa+ng
from
the
outset.
• Make
your
ground
rules
known
but
do
so
in
a
non-‐threatening
manner
so
students
feel
welcome
to
contact
you.
TWO
Plan your communication strategy.
During
the
course:
• For
all
student
communica+ons
in
the
discussion
forum,
it
important
to
build
a
strong
sense
of
community
by
personalizing
the
experience
as
much
as
possible.
• Address
each
student
by
name.
• Sign
your
name
to
all
of
your
discussion
posts.
• Use
personal
examples
and
anecdotes.
• Using
humor
can
help
bring
down
mental
barriers
in
the
classroom
and
help
students
feel
comfortable
to
share
their
ideas.
• Use
a
conversa+onal,
yet
scholarly,
tone
in
your
wri+ng.
9. Master the Discussion Forum
Use the Socratic
Method to
engage your
students, and
reveal more
thoughtful
responses in the
classroom.
TWO
• When
students
post
in
the
classroom,
ask
them
to
offer
more
than
a
simple
“I
agree”
to
the
conversa+on.
• It
is
important
for
faculty
to
adhere
to
this
rule
and
set
the
proper
example
for
student
communica+on.
• Faculty
should
ask
open-‐ended
ques+ons
where
appropriate
to
help
students
further
explore
their
thoughts.
• Your
pos+ngs
should
be
substan+ve
in
nature
and
most
importantly,
not
sound
canned
or
ar+ficial.
• Talk
to
the
student
as
if
you
were
talking
face-‐to-‐face.
• Show
empathy
where
appropriate,
understanding
where
needed,
and
apply
a
“listening
ear”
as
you
read
and
reply
to
their
posts.
11. Your Technology Resources
• Students
can
become
frustrated
if
they
are
not
able
to
properly
navigate
a
course.
• Faculty
should
be
able
to
give
instruc+ons
and
answer
ques+ons
related
to
the
mechanics
of
the
online
classroom
such
as
submiOng
an
assignment.
• Before
the
class
begins,
ensure
you
are
aware
of
the
numbers
and
e-‐
mails
for
technical
support
for
your
university,
as
well
as
contact
informa+on
for
the
advisement
team.
Providing
a
student
with
this
informa+on
will
help
them
stay
engaged
and
on
track
in
the
classroom.
• Follow
up
with
a
student
in
24-‐48
hours
to
ensure
their
issue
was
resolved.
If
it
was
not,
reach
out
to
your
faculty
services
liaison
or
program
chair
for
guidance
on
how
to
help
the
student.
THREE
The ideal online
teacher has a
toolkit for every
situation.
12. Conclusion
• Keeping
students
engaged
in
the
online
classroom
can
be
accomplished
with
the
use
of
crea+vity,
diligence,
and
a
li_le
bit
of
fun.
• Set
the
expecta+on

ins+lling
a
