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.

– Fractions
– Decimals
– Percentages
• Scales of measurement (Chapter 1)
– Nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio
– Continuous and discrete variables (Chapter 1)
• Real limits (Chapter 1)
4. 2.1 Frequency Distributions
• A frequency distribution is
– An organized tabulation
– Showing the number of individuals located in
each category on the scale of measurement
• Can be either a table or a graph
• Always shows
– The categories that make up the scale
– The frequency, or number of individuals, in
each category
5. 2.2 Frequency Distribution Tables
• Structure of Frequency Distribution Table
– Categories in a column (often ordered from
highest to lowest but could be reversed)
– Frequency count next to category
• Σf = N
• To compute ΣX from a table
– Convert table back to original scores or
– Compute ΣfX
6. Proportions and Percentages
Proportions
• Measures the fraction of
the total group that is
associated with each score
•
• Called relative frequencies
because they describe the
frequency ( f ) in relation to
the total number (N)
Percentages
N
f
pproportion
• Expresses relative
frequency out of 100
•
• Can be included as a
separate column in a
frequency distribution table

12. Grouped Frequency
Distribution Tables
• If the number of categories is very large
they are combined (grouped) to make the
table easier to understand
• However, information is lost when
categories are grouped
– Individual scores cannot be retrieved
– The wider the grouping interval, the more
information is lost
13. “Rules” for Constructing Grouped
Frequency Distributions
• Requirements (Mandatory Guidelines)
– All intervals must be the same width
– Make the bottom (low) score in each interval a
multiple of the interval width
• “Rules of Thumb” (Suggested Guidelines)
– Ten or fewer class intervals is typical (but use
good judgment for the specific situation)
– Choose a “simple” number for interval width
14. Discrete Variables in Frequency
or Grouped Distributions
• Constructing either frequency distributions or
grouped frequency distributions for discrete
variables is uncomplicated
– Individuals with the same recorded score had
precisely the same measurements
– The score is an exact score
15. Continuous Variables in
Frequency Distributions
• Constructing frequency distributions for
continuous variables requires understanding
that a score actually represents an interval
– A given “score” actually could have been any value
within the score’s real limits
– The recorded value was rounded off to the middle
value between the score’s real limits
– Individuals with the same recorded score probably
differed slightly in their actual performance
16. Continuous Variables in
Frequency Distributions
• Constructing grouped frequency distributions
for continuous variables also requires
understanding that a score actually represents
an interval
• Consequently, grouping several scores actually
requires grouping several intervals
• Apparent limits of the (grouped) class interval
are always one unit smaller than the real
limits of the (grouped) class interval. (Why?)
17. Learning Check
• A Grouped Frequency Distribution table has
categories 0-9, 10-19, 20-29, and 30-39.
What is the width of the interval 20-29?
• 9 pointsA
• 9.5 pointsB
• 10 pointsC
• 10.5 pointsD
18. Learning Check - Answer
• A Grouped Frequency Distribution table has
categories 0-9, 10-19, 20-29, and 30-39.
What is the width of the interval 20-29?
• 9 pointsA
• 9.5 pointsB
• 10 points (29.5 – 19.5 = 10)C
• 10.5 pointsD
19. Learning Check
• Decide if each of the following statements
is True or False.
• You can determine how many
individuals had each score from a
Frequency Distribution Table
T/F
• You can determine how many
individuals had each score from a

T/F
20. Learning Check - Answer
• The original scores can be
recreated from the Frequency
Distribution Table
True
• Only the number of individuals in
the class interval is available once
the scores are grouped
False
21. 2.3 Frequency Distribution Graphs
• Pictures of the data organized in tables
– All have two axes
– X-axis (abscissa) typically has categories of
measurement scale increasing left to right
– Y-axis (ordinate) typically has frequencies
increasing bottom to top
• General principles
– Both axes should have value 0 where they meet
– Height should be about ⅔ to ¾ of length
22. Data Graphing Questions
• Level of measurement? (nominal;
ordinal; interval; or ratio)
• Discrete or continuous data?
• Describing samples or populations?
The answers to these questions determine
which is the appropriate graph
23. Frequency Distribution Histogram
• Requires numeric scores (interval or ratio)
• Represent all scores on X-axis from minimum
thru maximum observed data values
• Include all scores with frequency of zero
• Draw bars above each score (interval)
– Height of bar corresponds to frequency
– Width of bar corresponds to score real limits (or
one-half score unit above/below discrete scores)
25. Grouped Frequency
Distribution Histogram
Same requirements as for frequency distribution
histogram except:
• Draw bars above each (grouped) class interval
– Bar width is the class interval real limits
– Consequence? Apparent limits are extended out
one-half score unit at each end of the interval
27. Block Histogram
• A histogram can be made a “block” histogram
• Create a bar of the correct height by drawing a
stack of blocks
• Each block represents one per case
• Therefore, block histograms show the
frequency count in each bar
29. Frequency Distribution Polygons
• List all numeric scores on the X-axis
– Include those with a frequency of f = 0
• Draw a dot above the center of each
interval
– Height of dot corresponds to frequency
– Connect the dots with a continuous line
– Close the polygon with lines to the Y = 0 point
• Can also be used with grouped frequency
distribution data
32. Graphs for Nominal or
Ordinal Data
• For non-numerical scores (nominal
and ordinal data), use a bar graph
–Similar to a histogram
–Spaces between adjacent bars indicates
discrete categories
• without a particular order (nominal)
• non-measurable width (ordinal)
34. Population Distribution Graphs
• When population is small, scores for each
member are used to make a histogram
• When population is large, scores for each
member are not possible
– Graphs based on relative frequency are used
– Graphs use smooth curves to indicate exact scores
were not used
• Normal
– Symmetric with greatest frequency in the middle
– Common structure in data for many variables
38. 2.4 Frequency Distribution Shape
• Researchers describe a distribution’s
shape in words rather than drawing it
• Symmetrical distribution: each side is a
mirror image of the other
• Skewed distribution: scores pile up on one
side and taper off in a tail on the other
– Tail on the right (high scores) = positive skew
– Tail on the left (low scores) = negative skew
40. Learning Check
• What is the shape of
this distribution?
• SymmetricalA

variable; a bar graph is requiredFalse
• Time is measured continuously
and is an interval variable
True
Terminology associated with frequency distributions is one of the least “standardized” across disciplines and texts students might encounter. Instructors may wish to emphasize the importance of being precise with the terms provided by the text authors, but also be aware that in other texts or courses the terms might be slightly different.
The ability to quickly and comfortably covert between fractions (proportions) , decimal fractions (relative frequency) and percentages is fundamental to success in this course. Some students struggle with reconciling the fact that although these are three distinct metrics, they all point to the same “deep” meaning.
This slide shows a recommended treatment for the four guidelines presented in the text. The text presents it slightly differently by indicating these are “guidelines” rather than absolute requirements. However, violating guideline 4 distorts the information conveyed and violating guideline 3 makes it much more difficult to assimilate the information conveyed by the table. Consequently, each instructor should clarify expectations for her class: are these “guidelines” or “rules?”
Why? Real limits extend ½ unit above and below each score. So the upper apparent score actually include ½ unit above it. Likewise, the lower apparent score acturally extends ½ unit below it. ½ + ½ = 1 “extra” unit included between real limits than is included between apparent limits.
The wide availability of graphing software may led an instructor to dispense with this slide. On the other hand, talking students through this discussion with a concrete example may help them better understand the issues and prevent some of the software-generated nonsense submitted by naïve users.
Instructors may wish to identify one of the most common errors made by beginning students: dropping scores from the histogram if the frequency is zero.

The importance of “closing the polygon” (sometimes called “anchoring the polygon”) can be humorously illustrated by describing the polygon floating away like an escaping helium-filled balloon.

FIGURE 2.6 A bar graph showing the distribution of personality types in a sample of college students. Because personality type is a discrete variable measured on a nominal scale, the graph is drawn with space between the bars.
FIGURE 2.7 A frequency distribution showing the relative frequency for two types of fish. Notice that the exact number of fish is not reported; the graph simply says that there are twice as many bluegill as there are bass.
FIGURE 2.8 The population distribution of IQ scores: an example of a normal distribution.
FIGURE 2.9 Two graphs showing the number of homicides in a city over a 4-year period. Both graphs show exactly the same data. However, the first graph gives the appearance that the homicide rate is high and rising rapidly. The second graph gives the impression that the homicide rate is low and has not changed over the 4-year period.
Many students are confused by skewness and focus on the main cluster of scores instead of the tail. Instructors may wish to relay the following visual aid to retaining the correct information. First make a fist with thumbs pointed out and away from the fist. Next rotate wrists so the fingers are visible (rather than the back of the hands) and point thumbs away from the body on both sides. The thumb on the right hand points to the right and the direction of positive numbers on a number line, and represents the tail in a positively skewed distribution. The thumb on the left hand points to the left and the direction of negative numbers on the number line, and represents the tail in a negatively skewed distribution.
