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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How can aquaculture contribute to healthy diets of the poor?
1. How can Aquaculture
Contribute to Healthy
Diets of the Poor?
Shakuntala Haraksingh Thilsted
Senior Nutrition Scientist
WorldFish
2. Overview
Healthy diets
•High dietary diversity: Large variety of foods and food groups
•High nutritional quality: vitamins, minerals, essential fats
•Safe: no contaminants
•Emphasis on the first 1,000 days of life (pregnant and lactating
woman and child up to second birthday)
Based on the above characteristics:
•Considerations and recommendations for the aquaculture sector
7. Underlying Characteristics of a Healthy
Diet – especially for the poor
Includes foods which are:
•Locally produced
•Culturally acceptable - taste,
texture, colour, flavour
•Affordable
•High nutritional quality
•Safe
•Year-round access
8. Minimum Dietary Diversity Indicator for
Women
Global recommendations based on food groups:
Usual diets should contain ≥ 6 of 10 food groups; ≥ 15 g/d of each food group
Criterion used: probability of meeting recommended micronutrient intakes
9. Minimum Dietary Requirement for
Children
Global recommendations based on food groups:
Children 6-23 months of age should consume ≥ 4 or more of 7 food groups:
•Grains, roots & tubers
•Legumes & nuts
•Dairy products
•Flesh foods
•Eggs
•Vitamin A-rich fruit and vegetables
•Other fruit and vegetables
•Criterion used: probability of meeting recommended micronutrient intakes
•No recommendation for serving size
10. Fish and Other Aquatic Animals: Rich in
Several Essential Micronutrients
• Vitamin A (animal-source foods have the only
preformed source, retinol; fish also has vitamin
A2 - dehydroretinol)
• Vitamin B12 (animal-source foods are the only
dietary source)
• Riboflavin
• Vitamin D (animal-source foods are the only
dietary source)
• Vitamin E
• Available iron (animal-source foods are the
only dietary source of haem iron)
• Available zinc, calcium, phosphorus

% contribution to daily RNI
15. Contribution to daily DHA (essential fatty acid
(docosahexaenoic acid) requirement from a standard serve
of fish for pregnant and lactating women (PLW) and infants
16. Why does diversity of species matter for
a healthy diet?
Greater number of fish species, OAAs and
algae:
•Varied preparation forms for different
combinations of dishes, meals and snacks
for different occasions
•Meets the preferences of more people
•Increases frequency and quantity of
consumption
•Increases season of consumption
•Increases the possibility of covering
multiple nutrient needs
17. Why does size of species matter for a
healthy diet?
What does small size mean for the poor?
•Available in local markets
•Affordable: Small quantities can be bought
Can buy at a low cost
•Can be cooked in a mixed dish and
therefore easy to share among all
household members
18. Aquaculture for Healthy Diets of the
Poor - Considerations
Diversity of species
•Other aquatic animals
•Aquatic plants - algae
Diversity of size
Selection of species
•Fast-and essential fats
Genetic selection and modification
•growing
•Can breed, ensuring a stable supply and “year-round” access
•High nutrient density - micronutrients
19. Feeding and Management in Aquaculture
to Improve Nutritional Quality
Use and timing of different feeds to increase nutrient content
•Plant-based, e.g. algae
•Insects
•Fish-based
Essential fats
Minerals, e.g. selenium
Vitamins
20. Why Fish-based Products for the 1,000
Days?
Address:
•High nutrient density
•Ease of preparation
•Ready to use
•Easy storage
Result in:
•Growth and development
of the foetus and infant
•Brain development and cognition
•School and work performance
22. Not just Large-Scale Aquaculture and
Monoculture
Small-scale Food systems approach
23. Beyond Production and Productivity in
Aquaculture – Towards a Healthy Diet for the Poor
• Minimising waste and loss reduce non-edible parts (perhaps
the most micronutrient-rich)
• Preservation for stable access
• Processing - to develop desirable, affordable, micronutrient-
rich fish-based products
24. Beyond Production and Productivity in
Aquaculture – Towards a Healthy Diet for the Poor
Innovative Partnerships
•Analysis of nutrient composition - just not protein
•Analysis of food safety
•Engaging with other sectors: e.g. Nutrition and Health
•Awareness raising, education and behaviour change: schools,
youths
•Engaging in developing and achieving the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs)
