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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
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

Exploiting Artificial Intelligence for Empowering Researchers and Faculty,
International FDP on Fundamentals of Research in Social Sciences
at Integral University, Lucknow, 06.06.2024
By Dr. Vinod Kumar Kanvaria
Update site name and date on this slide prior to the training day.
Please add your name and email into this slide before presenting. Also mention the One-to-One Institute, what we do, and how we intend to support the school.
Please add site name on the slide. Kate will provide you with the pre-assessment results. Review the results with the participants in light of the agenda and what everyone hopes to accomplish during the Immersion Training.
Anonymous Introduction Exercise Everyone writes one dream and one concern on an index card (no names). Get into a circle and on the coaches count, throw cards into middle. Everyone picks up a card and take turns reading what is on the card. Presenter writes everything on large sticky post-it – 1 post-it for dreams and 1 post-it for concerns.
Create a tentative agenda prior to the training day. Make adjusts to the agenda at this point in the training based on the conversation you have during the review of the pre-assessment, the Anonymous Exercise and the Digital Coach Expectations slide.
Explain to the participants that this educational transformation is a journey, not a quickly achieved destination. The process should be taken slowly and steadily over the period of several years.
Moving from Teacher-centered, Artificial, basic skills to Student-Centered, Rea;-World, High-Order Thinking. This is a journey; do not expect to go from drill and practice to problem solving immediately. Just keep moving in the right direction. One way to do so is to use online tools. We will spend the remainder of the day providing you with several online tools; it is your job to sample from the buffet and determine which you think you can use in your classroom, in your lessons, with your students.
After you show the video, ask participants to describe what they saw. You will probably get pretty superficial answers. That is o.k. because you will discuss in more depth over the next couple of slides.
Start with a brief sharing of their throughts about their own lessons and the conversations they had with their table partner. Then discuss the following in conjunction with this slide: How do teachers know what content to teach and when to teach it? Is there a structure in place to help teachers share teacher-created lessons and projects? How can we ensure that instruction is less textbook driven and more driven on student inquiry?
Discussion: Class sizes are rising, students learn at different rates, and teachers are expected to teach more content. How can 1:1 computing help teachers do more with less resources and more challenges?
How can you involve parents? Community members? Ideas may include websites, podcasts, PTA meetings, invitations to help with projects, etc.
Discussion: Professional development has many forms…. Online webinars, collaborative teams looking at assessment data and designing lessons based on needs, book studies, iTunes U, etc. You’ll be asked to set your own learning goals and define what you will do to get there. Who will you work with? Who can you ask for help?
Give everyone a minute to read the cartoon (do not read it to them). When they start giggling, ask them to share what they feel about the current climate of standardized testing.
Discussion: There are many strategies to collect data. Brainstorm a list of possibilities of how you might collect data. Ideas may include: ticket out the door, surveys (Google forms or other), polls, multiple choice tests, projects assessed with a rubric, observation forms.
Find a unique way to engage participants in conversation or an activity around the elements of formative and summative assessment. There is a full description of Formative and Summative Assessment for your use in your Digital Coach Resources folder.
Explain to the participants that this educational transformation is a journey, not a quickly achieved destination. The process should be taken slowly and steadily over the period of several years.
