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.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Macroeconomics- Movie Location
This will be used as part of your Personal Professional Portfolio once graded.
Objective:
Prepare a presentation or a paper using research, basic comparative analysis, data organization and application of economic information. You will make an informed assessment of an economic climate outside of the United States to accomplish an entertainment industry objective.
1. Lesson Objective: To understand the characteristics of the
independent film industry
Independent Film
2. Indie films share mechanical
and narrative attributes, which
differ from Hollywood’s.
Hollywood:
• Adheres to continuity editing,
the films of the indie genre
• Films need medium close
shots and shot/reverse shots
to keep the film together
• Big Budget/famous actors
Hollywood vs Independent Film
Independent:
• makes use of techniques that conflict
the basic purpose of Hollywood
editing e.g. handheld camera
• Make use of other types of shots
more so than Hollywood does.
• Refusal to use epic establishing
shots
• Small budget/less well known actors
3. “In a scene where Juno (Ellen Page) and Leah (Olivia Thirlby) are at the mall,
there is no establishing shot. The narrative opens directly into a conversation
between Juno and Leah at a new setting the audience has not seen before. A
mall is something many audience members can recognize, so they eventually
understand where they are, but with no exterior long shot, it takes a few
moments. This is the opposite of what continuity editing tries to maintain. Here
viewers are unsure and not kept totally clear on what is happening inside the
film”
(King)
4. Juno
• Lack of establishing shot (Thompson 2007)

5. Indie filmmakers use other techniques
beside the distance of the shot to make
their films stand apart from Hollywood’s.
One unique method is using a
mismatch of sound and image
(Tzioumakis)
9. Narrative structure
Hollywood:
• Linear
• Beginning, middle, end
• Equilibrium (Todorov)
• Chronological
Independent:
• non-linear
• Explorative
• Not necessarily in chronological
order
• Unstructured
10. “some independent features are
marked by their lack of strong,
forward moving narrative drive,
opting instead for more relaxed or
de-centred structures…” (King)
11. Characters
Hollywood:
“Hollywood protagonists
tend to be active, to seek
out goals and pursue them
rather than having goals
simply thrust upon them”
(Thompson)
Independent:
The characters are
generally “goal-oriented,
psychologically motivated”
(Tzioumakis)
