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

Image manipulation - Photoshop
1. Using the pen tool in Photoshop
About the Pen tools
Photoshop provides multiple Pen tools. The standard Pen tool draws with the greatestprecision; the
Freeform Pen tool draws paths as if you were drawing with pencil on paper, and the magnetic pen
option lets you draw a path that snaps to the edges ofdefined areas in your image. You can use the
pen tools in conjunction with the shape tools to create complex shapes. When you use the standard
Pen tool, the following options are available in the options bar:
Auto Add/Delete,which lets you add an anchor pointwhen you click a line segmentor delete
an anchor pointwhen you click it.
Rubber Band, which lets you preview path segments as you move the pointer between clicks.
(To access this option, click the pop-up menu to the right ofthe Custom Shape icon.)
Note:
Before drawing with the Pen tool, you can create a new path in the Paths panel to automatically save
the work path as a named path.
Draw straight line segments with the Pen tool
The simplestpath you can draw with the Pen tool is a straight line, made by clicking the Pen tool to
create two anchor points. By continuing to click, you create a path made ofstraight line segments
connected by corner points.
Clicking the Pen tool creates straight segments.
1. Selectthe Pen tool.
2. Position the Pen tool where you want the straight segmentto begin, and click to define the first
anchor point(do notdrag).
Note:
The first segmentyou draw will not be visible until you click a second anchor point. (Selectthe Rubber
Band option in Photoshop to preview path segments.) Also,ifdirection lines appear, you’ve accidentally
dragged the Pen tool; choose Edit > Undo, and click again.
1. Click again where you want the segment to end (Shift-click to constrain the angle ofthe
segmentto a multiple of45°).
2. Continue clicking to setanchor points for additional straight segments.
3. The last anchor pointyou add always appears as a solid square, indicating that it is selected.
Previously defined anchor points become hollow, and deselected, as you add more anchor
points.
4. Complete the path by doing one ofthe following:
To close the path, position the Pen tool over the first (hollow) anchor point. A small
circle appears nextto the Pen tool pointer when it is positioned correctly. Click or
drag to close the path.
2. To leave the path open, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Mac OS) anywhere
away from all objects.
To leave the path open, you can also selecta differenttool.
Draw curves with the Pen tool
You create a curve by adding an anchor point where a curve changes direction, and dragging the
direction lines that shape the curve. The length and slope ofthe direction lines determine the shape of
the curve.
Curves are easier to editand your system can display and print them faster if you draw them using as
few anchor points as possible. Using too many points can also introduce unwanted bumps in a curve.
Instead, draw widely spaced anchor points, and practice shaping curves by adjusting the length and
angles ofthe direction lines.
1. Selectthe Pen tool.
2. Position the Pen tool where you want the curve to begin, and hold down the mouse button.
3. The first anchor pointappears, and the Pen tool pointer changes to an arrowhead. (In
Photoshop, the pointer changes only after you’ve started dragging.)
4. Drag to setthe slope ofthe curve segmentyou’re creating, and then release the mouse button.
In general, extend the direction line aboutone third ofthe distance to the nextanchor pointyou plan to
draw. (You can adjust one or both sides ofthe direction line later.)
Hold down the Shift key to constrain the tool to multiples of45°.
Drawing the first point in a curve
A. Positioning Pen tool B. Starting to drag (mouse button pressed) C. Dragging to extend direction
lines
1. Position the Pen tool where you want the curve segmentto end, and do one ofthe following:
2. To create a C-shaped curve, drag in a direction opposite to the previous direction line. Then
release the mouse button.
Drawing the second point in a curve
3. To create an S-shaped curve, drag in the same direction as the previous direction line. Then
release the mouse button.
3. Drawing an S curve
Note:
To change the direction ofthe curve sharply, release the mouse button, and then Alt-drag (Windows) or
Option-drag (Mac OS) the direction pointin the direction ofthe curve. Release the Alt(Windows) or
Option (Mac OS) key and the mouse button, reposition the pointer where you want the segmentto end,
and drag in the opposite direction to complete the curve segment.
1. Continue dragging the Pen tool from different locations to create a series ofsmooth curves.
Note that you are placing anchor points at the beginning and end ofeach curve, notat the tip of
the curve.
Note:
Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Mac OS) direction lines to break outthe direction lines ofan anchor
point.
1. Complete the path by doing one ofthe following:
2. To close the path, position the Pen tool over the first (hollow) anchor point. A small circle
appears nextto the Pen tool pointer when it is positioned correctly.Click or drag to close the
path.
3. To leave the path open, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Mac OS) anywhere away from
all objects or selecta differenttool.
Finish drawing a path
Complete a path in one ofthe following ways:
To close a path, position the Pen tool over the first (hollow) anchor point. A small circle appears
nextto the Pen tool pointer when it is positioned correctly.Click or drag to close the path.
To leave a path open, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Mac OS) anywhere away from
all objects.
Draw with the Freeform Pen tool
The Freeform Pen tool lets you draw as if you were drawing with a pencil on paper. Anchor points are
added automatically as you draw. You do notdetermine where the points are positioned, butyou can
adjust them once the path is complete. To draw with greater precision, use the Pen tool.
1. Selectthe Freeform Pen tool .
2. To control how sensitive the final path is to the movementofyour mouse or stylus, click the
inverted arrow nextto the shape buttons in the options bar, and enter a value between 0.5 and
10.0 pixels for Curve Fit. A higher value creates a simpler path with fewer anchor points.
3. Drag the pointer in the image. As you drag, a path trails behind the pointer. When you release
the mouse, a work path is created.
4. To continue the existing freehand path, position the pen pointer on an end pointof the path,
and drag.
4. 5. To complete the path, release the mouse. To create a closed path, drag the line to the initial
pointof the path (a circle appears nextto the pointer when it is aligned).
Draw straight lines followed by curves
1. Using the Pen tool, click corner points in two locations to create a straight segment.
2. Position the Pen tool over the selected endpoint. A small diagonal line, or slash, appears next
to the Pen tool. To setthe slope ofthe curved segmentyou’ll create next, click the anchor
point, and drag the direction line that appears.

5. 1. Using the Pen tool, drag to create the first smooth pointofa curved segment.
2. Reposition the Pen tool and drag to create a curve with a second smooth point; then press and
hold Alt(Windows) or Option (Mac OS) and drag the direction line toward its opposing end to
setthe slope ofthe nextcurve. Release the key and the mouse button.
3. This process converts the smooth pointto a corner pointby splitting the direction lines.
4. Reposition the Pen tool where you want the second curved segmentto end, and drag a new
smooth pointto complete the second curved segment.

Draw using the magnetic pen options
The Magnetic Pen is an option ofthe Freeform Pen tool that lets you draw a path that snaps to the
edges ofdefined areas in your image. You can define the range and sensitivity ofthe snapping
behavior, as well as the complexity ofthe resulting path. The Magnetic Pen and Magnetic Lasso tools
share many of the same options.
1. To convertthe Freeform Pen tool to the Magnetic Pen tool , selectMagnetic in the options
bar, or click the inverted arrow next to the shape buttons in the options bar, selectMagnetic,
and setthe following:
For Width, enter a pixel value between 1 and 256. The Magnetic Pen detects edges
only within the specified distance from the pointer.
For Contrast, enter a percentage value between 1 and 100 to specify the contrast
required between pixels for that area to be considered an edge. Use a higher value for
low-contrast images.
For Frequency, enter a value between 0 and 100 to specify the rate at which the Pen
sets anchor points. A higher value anchors the path in place more quickly.
2. If you are working with a stylus tablet, selector deselectPen Pressure. When this option is
selected, an increase in pen pressure causes the width to decrease.
3. Click in the image to setthe first fastening point.
4. To draw a freehand segment, move the pointer or drag along the edge you want to trace.
5. The mostrecent segmentofthe border remains active. As you move the pointer, the active
segmentsnaps to the strongestedge in the image, connecting the pointer to the last fastening
point. Periodically, the Magnetic Pen adds fastening points to the border to anchor previous
sections.
6. Click to add fastening points, and continue tracing.
1. If the border doesn’tsnap to the desired edge, click once to add a fastening pointmanually and
to keep the border from moving. Continue to trace the edge and add fastening points as
needed.Ifyou make a mistake, press Delete to remove the lastfastening point.
2. To dynamically modify the properties ofthe Magnetic Pen, do one ofthe following:
Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Mac OS) to draw a freehand path.
Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) to draw straight segments.
Press the open square bracketkey ([) to decrease the Magnetic Pen width by 1 pixel;
press the close square bracketkey (]) to increase the pen width by 1 pixel.
3. Complete the path:
Press Enter (Windows) or Return (Mac OS) to end an open path.
Double-click to close the path with a magnetic segment.
Hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS), and double-click to close the path with a
straight segment.
