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.

18. Five years ago my family moved
from Florida to a small town in New
Hampshire. I went from having a lot of
close friends living nearby to none. The
same day we moved in we met our
neighbors and their son, Eli, was my first
new friend. In middle school and high
school, people complained about how they
did not like him. It always annoyed me
because it came from people who barely
knew him.
At my family’s Christmas party last year,
my aunt’s brother-in-law’s heart stopped.
We all watched him go from being fine to
dying in a matter of seconds. My friend ran
next door to get his father, an EMT. During
the whole situation Eli did what he could to
help. Even though I never questioned why
I was friends with him, that night made me
respect him and appreciate being friends
with him a whole lot more.
