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.
Strategies for Effective Upskilling is a presentation by Chinwendu Peace in a Your Skill Boost Masterclass organisation by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan on 08th and 09th June 2024 from 1 PM to 3 PM on each day.

3. According to Gallup poll
• 60% of Americans feel happy without a lot of
stress or worry.
4. Happiness doesn’t come easy
• Negative emotions (fear, anger, despair) are
for SURVIVAL
• Positive emotions (curiosity, delight, interest,
joy, etc) are for GROWTH
6. Our current culture
• Is more interested in the pursuit of individual
happiness than in the search for meaning.
• Frankl would say that happiness cannot be
pursued, it must ensue.
• He adds—the pursuit of happiness thwarts
happiness.
9. Humans are poor affective forecasters
• We are very poor at predicting what will make
us happy
• Events have a small impact on happiness that
doesn’t last long
• People who suffer tragedy/trauma recover
more quickly than they expect (resilience)
• Good things don’t make us feel good as much
as we expect
10. How to forecast how an event will
affect us?
• Look at other’s experience
– How have previous lottery winners felt?
• We don’t tend to do that because we think we
are unique
– Daniel Gilbert, 2007, Stumbling on Happiness
11. David Geffen
interviewed by Barbara Walters
• BW: “Now that you are a billionaire are you
happy?”
• DG: “Anyone who believes money makes you
happy doesn’t have money”
12. Happiness increases with income up to about 50K—after that there is no
dramatic effect. (Richard Layard, Happiness: Lessons from a New Science)
16. Victor Frankl’s observations in Nazi
concentration camps led him to
conclude:
The difference between those who
had lived and those who died came
down to one thing--Meaning
17. Those who had meaning
• Were more resilient to suffering
• “Everything can be taken from a man but one
thing. The last of the human freedoms—to
choose one’s attitude in any given set of
circumstances, to choose one’s own way”
Victor Frankl
18. Path to happiness
according to Caroline Myss
• Discovering our true paths—our meaning
• Appreciating the lives we have (not the ones
we want)—gratitude
• Recognizing who we really are—authenticity &
self acceptance
19. • Nearly all people are capable of much more
happiness than they have.
• See your potential.
• Create opportunities to invest in your own
highest and best self.
20. In a meaningful life you use your
highest strengths and talents to
belong to and serve something that
is larger than the self.
Martin Seligman
You may also have more worry, anxiety
and stress because you are invested in
something bigger than yourself.
21. Example: parenting
• Having children is associated with a more
meaningful life
• Higher stress, anxiety and self sacrifice
• On a day to day basis parents are less happy
interacting with their children than they are
exercising, eating and watching television
• Daniel Gilbert, Harvard psychologist
22.
23. Reframing
• Happy people don’t have a magic button to
get them out of traffic or that mutes an
impolite boss—they draw different messages
or meanings from the situation.
– David Niven 100 Simple Secrets of Happy People
24. To improve happiness
• 5 random acts of kindness per week (journal it)
• Gratitude journal
• Gratitude letter
• Connect with others
• Discover your strengths and put energy into
increasing strengths
25.
26. Gratitude
• A validated intervention for depression
• A validated intervention to increase happiness
39. Health improves happiness
• Meditation
• Savoring—living in the moment
• Sleep
• Omega-3
Enjoy Life: Healing with Happiness; How to
harness positive moods to raise your energy,
effectiveness and joy, by Lynn D. Johnson, 2008
40. Savor life!
Focus intently on ordinary experiences.
Chew food slowly and thoughtfully.
Drink slowing and attentively.
Listen to a friend with intensity. Keep your
mind quiet as you listen.
Notice the daily experience of walking.
41.
42. Happiness is a positive sum game
“Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single
candle, and the life of the candle will not be
shortened. Happiness never decreases by being
shared.”
Buddha
