Here are the key differences between quantitative and qualitative research:
1. Quantitative research is based on measuring and analyzing numerical data using statistical and mathematical methods to explain a phenomenon. Qualitative research focuses on understanding and explaining social phenomena through words, pictures, and narratives rather than numbers.
2. Quantitative research uses structured and standardized measures like surveys and questionnaires to collect data from a large number of participants. Qualitative research uses unstructured and flexible methods like interviews, focus groups, and observations to collect data from a small number of participants.
3. Quantitative research aims to establish facts and causes of social phenomena with the goal of explaining and predicting what occurs. Qualitative research aims to explore and understand social phenomena from participants' perspectives without making broad

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
