The barrel and box making industry was an important part of Hammonds Plains' history and economy for over 200 years. Coopering and box making skills were brought by early settlers and mills produced wooden pieces that were turned into barrels and boxes by local coopers and box makers. At its peak in the early 20th century, there were over 30 cooper shops and box factories in operation. However, the industry began declining in the 1930s due to economic factors and the rise of plastic, with the last cooper shop closing in the late 1970s and box factory in the 1990s. Though now a lost art, barrel and box making was integral to Hammonds Plains' social and industrial development for generations.

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.
