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.
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
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. Objectives
To discuss:
Maintenance Fluids and Electrolyte Requirements
Types of Dehydration
Management of Dehydration
Electrolyte Abnormalities
3. Composition of Body
Compartments
Total Body Water (TBW)= 50-75% of Total Body
Mass
TBW = Intracellular Fluid (ICF) + Extracellular Fluid (ECF)
ICF = 2/3 of TBW
ECF = 1/3 of TBW -- 25% of body weight
ECF = Plasma (intravascular) + Interstitial fluid
5. Regulation of Body Fluids and
Electrolytes
Mechanism to Regulate ECF volume
Anti-Diuretic Hormone (ADH)
• Kidney = Increase water reabsorption
• ADH secretion is regulated by tonicity of body
fluids
Thirst
• Not physiological stimulated until plasma
osmolality is >290
6. Regulation of Body Fluids and
Electrolytes
Aldosterone
• Released from the adrenal cortex
– Decrease circulating volume
– Stimulation by Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone axis
– Increase plasma K
• Enhanced renal reabsorption of Na in
exchange for K (>Na = expansion of ECF)
Atrial Natriuretic Factor
• Secreated by the cardiac atrium in response to
atrial dilatation (regulates blood volume)
• Inhibits Renin secretion
• Increase GFR and Na excretion
8. 4cc, 2cc, 1cc rule
4 cc for the first 10 kg
2 cc for the next 10 kg
1 cc for each kg after
Example:
• 27 kg child
– 4 cc for the first 10 kg = 40cc
– 2 cc for the next 10 kg = 20cc
– 1 cc for each kg after = 7 cc
67 cc/hr
10. Dehydration
Epidemiology:
One of the most common medical problems
In the U.S. - 10% of all pediatric admissions
Worldwide, over 3 million children under 5
years die from dehydration
11. Estimation of Dehydration
Mild Moderate Severe
Weight Loss 3-5% 6-9% >10%
Blood pressure Normal Orthostatic Shock
Pulse Normal Increase Tachycardic
Behavior Normal Irritable Lethargic
Membranes Moist Dry Parched
Tears Present Decrease Absent
Cap. Refill 2 seconds 2-4 seconds >4 seconds
Urine SG >1.020 >1.030 Oliguria
13. Management of Dehydration
General Principles:
Supply Maintenance Requirements
Correct volume and electrolyte deficit
Replace ongoing abnormal losses
14. Management of Dehydration
Oral Rehydration:
Effective for mild and some moderate
dehydrations
Child may be able to tolerate PO intake
Small aliquots as tolerated
• Mild: 50 cc/kg over 4 hours
• Moderate: 100 cc/kg over 4 hours
2 types of oral solution
• Maintenance
• Rehydration
15. Commercial Oral Solutions
Na mEq/L K mEq/L Cl mEq/L Base CHO %
Maintenance
Reosol 50 20 50 Citrate Glucose 2
Ricelyte 50 25 45 Citrate Rice syrup 3
Pedialyte 45 20 35 Citrate Glucose 2.5
Rehydration
Rehydralyte 75 20 65 Citrate Glucose 2.5
W.H.O
For cholera use
90 20 80 HCO3 Glucose 2
16. Management of Dehydration:
IV
Replacement of Fluid Deficit Based on %
Dehydration:
Example: 5 kg child who is 6% dehydrated: 5 x
60cc/kg
• fluid deficit (cc) = wt x % dehydration
• fluid deficit (cc) = wt in kg (1000cc/kg) x (1/100)
estimate of dehydration
• fluid deficit (cc) = wt x 10 x estimate of dehydration
• fluid deficit (cc) = 5 x 10 x 6
• fluid deficit (cc) = 300 cc
17. Management of Dehydration:
IV
Initial: NS or LR 20 cc/kg Bolus in first hour
Then Remainder of Deficit
• In previous example: total fluid deficit = 300cc
for 5 kg child who is 6% dehydrated = 60cc/kg
• Replacement:
– first hour: 20 cc/kg = 20 x 5 = 100 cc
– replace the rest: 40 cc/kg or 300 - 100 = 200 cc
– The type of fluid used and the rate of infusion
depends on the age and Na status of the patient:
» for isonatremic dehydration: correct deficits of
next 7 hours
» 200cc over 7 hours = 28 cc/hr
22. Hyponatremia
Management
Na Deficit:
• Na Deficit = (Na Desired - Na observed) x 0.6
x body weight(kg)
Replace half in first 8 hours and the rest in the
following 16 hours
Rise in serum Na should not exceed 2 mEq/L/h to
prevent Central Pontine Myelinolysis (? Existence
in children)
In cases of severe hyponatremia (<120 mEq) with
CNS symptoms:
• 3% NaCl 3-5 ml/kg IV push for hyponatremia
induced seizures
– 6 ml/kg of NaCl will raise serum Na by 5 mEq/L
23. Hypernatremia
Hypernatremia leads to hypertonicity
Increase secretion of ADH
Increase thirst
Patients at risk
Inability to secrete or respond to ADH
No access to water
24. Hypernatremia
Etiology
Pure water depletion
• Diabetes insipidus (Central or Nephrogenic)
Sodium excess
• Salt poisoning (PO or IV)
Water depletion exceeding Na depletion
• Diarrhea, vomiting, decrease fluid intake
Pharmacologic agents
• Lithium, Cyclophosphamide, Cisplatin
25. Hypernatremia
Signs and symptoms
Disturbances of consciousness
• Lethargy or Confusion
Neuromuscular Irritability
• Muscle twitching, hyperreflexia
Convulsions
Hyperthermia
• Skin may feel thick or doughy
26. Hypernatremia
Management
Normal Saline or Ringer lactate to restore volume
Hypotonic solution (D5 1/4 NS) to correct calculated
deficit over 48 hours
• Water Deficit
– Normal body H20 - Current body H20
• Current body water
– 0.6 x body weight (kg) x Normal Na/Observed Na
• Normal Body water
– 0.6 x body weight (kg)
Decrease Na concentration at a rate of 0.5 mEq/hr
or ~ 10 mEq/day: Faster correction can result in
Cerebral Edema
27. Potassium
Most abundant intracellular cation
Normal serum values 3.5-5.5 mEq
Abnormalities of serum K are potentially life-
threatening due to effect in cardiac function
28. Hypokalemia
Diagnosis
Symptoms
• Arrhythmias
• Neuromuscular excitability (hyporreflexia, paralysis)
• Gastrointestinal (decreased peristalsis or ileus)
Serum K < 3mEq/L
ECG:
• Flat T waves
• Short P-R interval and QRS
• U waves
29. Hypokalemia
Nutritional GI Loss Renal Loss Endocrine
Poor intake Diarrhea Renal tubular acidosis Insulin therapy
IVF low in K Vomiting Chronic renal disease Glucose therapy
Anorexia Malabsorbtion Fanconi's syndrome DKA
Intestinal fistula Gentamicin, Hyperaldosteronism
Laxatives Amphotericin Adrenal adenomas
Enemas Diuretics Mineralocorticoids
Bartter's syndrome
Bartter’s syndrome: Hypereninemia and hyperaldosteronism
30. Hypokalemia
Management:
Cardiac Arrhythmias or Muscle Weakness
• KCl IV (cardiac monitor)
PO K - Depend of etiology
• Hypophoshatemia = KPO4
• Metabolic acidosis = KCl
• Renal tubular acidosis = K citrate
