Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

6. Federal vs. Private Loans
A federal loan is supported by the federal government and allows
students to borrow money to help pay for school
Benefits of a federal loan include: low-fixed interest rates, incomebased repayment plans, cancellations for certain employment, and
deferment options
There are two (2) types of federal loan programs: The Federal
Perkins Loan Program and The Direct Loan Program
A private student loan is a non-federal loan issued by a lender such
as a bank or a credit union and commonly requires a credit check
7. Federal Perkins Loan Program
Federal Perkins loans are low interest loans that help need-based undergraduate
and graduate students finance the cost of post-secondary education
School is the lender; approximately 1700 schools participate
Interest rate = 5%
Amount received depends on financial need, amount of other aid, and
availability of funds at school
Repaying a Federal Perkins Loan begins after the grace period has expired. The
grace period begins on the day that the student graduates and lasts for nine (9)
months
During the grace period, the student does not pay principal and is not charged
interest. If a student is attending school less than half-time (typically defined as
less than six (6) credit hours), his/her grace period may be affected
A student has up to ten (10) years to repay a Federal Perkins loan
8. Direct Loan Program
The Direct Loan Program is the largest federal student loan program available with
four (4) types of direct loans:
Direct Subsidized Loan (DSL): For UG’s; US Department of Education pays interest
while borrower is in school and during grace and/or deferment periods; student
must be attending at least half-time and have financial need. IR = 6.8%
Direct Unsubsidized Loan (DUL): For UG’s and graduate students; borrower is
responsible for all interest; student must be enrolled at least half-time; financial
need is not required; US Department of Education is the lender. IR = 6.8%
Direct PLUS Loan (DPL): For parents of dependent UG’s and also graduate and
professional students; student must be enrolled at least half-time; financial need
is not required. Borrower is responsible for all interest; US Department of
Education is the lender; graduate student/parent cannot have a negative credit
history. IR = 7.9%
Direct Consolidation Loan (DCL): Allows student or parent to combine multiple
federal education loans into one loan with one (1) monthly payment
9. Direct Loan Program (cont.)
Lender is the US Department of Education
Direct loans have a fixed interest rate that varies depending on the loan type
Amount that can be borrowed varies based on whether the student is
enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program
The grace period is six (6) months for DSL’s and DUL’s. DPL’s do not have a
grace period, but can defer for up to six (6) months

qualify
To take out a Direct Loan, student must complete a Master Promissory Note
(MPN). This is a legally binding agreement to repay loan

undergraduate and graduate students with financial need, thus allowing
them to earn money to help pay education expenses
FWS encourages community service and work related to the recipient’s
area of study
Undergraduate students are paid by the hour and will receive at least
federal minimum wage
The amount earned cannot exceed the FWS award amount
FWS employment may be on-campus or off-campus
When assigning work hours, the student’s employer or financial aid
administrator will consider award amount, class schedule, and academic
progress
11. What is PrepTalk?
PrepTalk is a new virtual webcasting tool designed for the
college admission process. Through PrepTalk, colleges
can communicate with prospective students in a live
setting.
Why was PrepTalk created?
On average, colleges visit 500 high schools a year, yet there are 27,000+ high schools
in the United States
75% of students would speak with a college representative via webcam, but currently
only 20% are doing so
A college education is the second largest investment a family will make (next to a
home), but its often difficult for parents to get direct interaction with college reps
Demonstrated interest is an increasingly important factor – more than 50% of colleges
rank it as being of considerable or moderate importance in the decision making
process
