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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Indigenous Technological Knowledge
ITK refers to the cumulative and complex bodies of
knowledge, know-how practices and representations
that are maintained and developed by local
communities, who have long histories of interaction
with the natural environment (UNESCO, 2012)
Indigenous Knowledge is the information base for a
society, which facilitates communication and
decision-making. Indigenous information systems are
dynamic, and are continually influenced by internal
creativity and experimentation as well as by contact
with external systems. (Flavier et al. 1995)
3. ITK Vs Science
The ITK, relies almost exclusively on intuition and
evidence directly available to the senses.
The scientific mode of thought is characterised by a
greater ability to break down data presented to the
senses and to reassemble it in different ways.
4. ITKs followed in China
Cotton seed oil, tobacco plant extracts and juniper oil
against rice borers and leafhoppers.

Also in citrus in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam
O. smaragdina is an important predator.
7. ITKs followed in Indonesia
Put corn seeds in vinegar or in lemon juice for a night
before planting.
To ensure that corn seed will germinate healthy
without ‘ulat’ (caterpillars) eat them”.
Farmers belives that a mouse would not eat a part of
a corn that has been eaten before. Therefore, a half of
a new ear in the front to make a corn ear ‘satay’, and
hang it in the field
8. ITKs followed in Sri Lanka

- Seeds of maize and leguminous crops are often kept
intact along with their outer husk and hang over the
kitchen/ furnace.
14. Traditional granary for paddy
Bamboo granaries plastered with fresh cowdung +
mustard oil cakes and branches with leaves of
Zanthoxylum acanthopodium on the top - common
pests of stored paddy grains.
Paddy granaries are either placed near the kitchen or
vicinity to kitchen in a separate house.
15. Rice pests
