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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.
1. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay 1: Give a candid description of yourself, stressing the personal characteristics you feel to be your strengths and weaknesses and the main factors, which have influenced your personal development, giving examples when necessary. (400 words approx.) This essay is about you. Grab this opportunity to differentiate yourself among the applicant pool. However, be mindful about not expressing opinions. Use specific instances to signal your strengths and weaknesses. Use instances from your personal life, extra-curricular, social responsibility activities, or any special experiences that bring out factors that you think had a defining impact on you. With a tight word limit, a good structure is very important in this essay. Besides, focusing on any two strengths and one weakness should do well here. However, think about your weakness a lot and don’t fake it. It’s not very difficult for seasoned adcom members to make out when the candidate is faking a weakness. Further, a real weakness demonstrates a self awareness which is an important characteristic of a leader. A real characteristic also brings out the unique in you.
2. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay 2: Describe what you believe to be your two most substantial accomplishments to date, explaining why you view them as such. (400 words approx.) Consistency in your application is important. Choose different examples for this and the previous essay but maintain consistency in what personal characteristics you indicate. The accomplishments may come from any sphere – personal, extra-curricular or professional, but try to balance examples from every sphere across different essays and give the adcom a holistic insight into you. Remember INSEAD’s focus on international motivation, managerial potential, academic performance and diversity of background mentioned in its note at the beginning of the application document. Accordingly, an evidence of leadership and international perspective in your chosen accomplishments would be a big plus. Also understand that purely subjective statements hold little weight as accomplishments because it’s tough to verify them. Therefore, best accomplishments for this essay would be complemented by numbers. You response to why you view them as such can be used to indicate to the adcom what kind of things matter to you. Also, try not to choose a very old example, e.g., from school, etc., unless that brings out something really extraordinary in you.
3. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay 3: Describe a situation taken from school, business, civil or military life, where you did not meet your personal objectives, and discuss briefly the effect. (250 words approx.) This is another form of the failure essay but the word limit restricts you from beating about the bush here. Be concise in describing the situation. Give relatively more weight to what your personal objectives were and how you failed to meet them, and the maximum weight to your introspection later and its effect on you. If possible, end your essay with a very short mention of another situation at a later time where you did meet the same personal objectives as a result of the change in you after the previous failure. Keep in mind that the failure is necessarily only on your own expectations even though you may have succeeded on others’. You should try to show to the adcom how you actively process feedback from situations, weight it on your own high standards, and change wherever needed.
4. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay4: Discuss your career goals. What skills do you expect to gain from studying at INSEAD and how will they contribute to your professional career. (500 words approx.) One way to write about career goals is to divide them into short term, medium term, and long term goals. It demonstrates clarity of thought and helps you in laying out a well thought out career path with clear transition plans across different temporal bands. It also gives an easily understandable structure to your essay in minimum words. Although the question asks only about your future career goals, it’s better to add credibility by briefly relating your career choices so far to your future plans. Tell the adcom how your choice of academic, extra-curricular or professional experiences puts you in a position to pursue the career you want to. Once you have this structure laid out, explain how INSEAD’s diverse class, strong alumni body, strong international focus, and a general management program would help you move on this path to your medium term goals. If you intend to switch industry or function, explain how these resources would help you make this transition. This portion of your essay also gives you an opportunity to demonstrate to the adcom that you have researched on the school and given an offer, you are serious about joining the school.
5. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay 5: Please choose one of the following two essay topics: a) Have you ever experienced culture shock? What did it mean to you? (250 words approx.), or b) What would you say to a foreigner moving to your home country? (250 words approx.) With a class comprising of more than 70 nationalities, INSEAD creates a multicultural environment to bring in different perspectives in student interactions. Over the years, it has trained globetrotting managers and its graduates have joined organizations in over 50 countries. Therefore, it becomes important for you to show leadership skills and cultural sensitivity relevant to an increasingly connected world. Use this essay to show your experience with cross cultural environments and your sensitivity towards different cultures. Particularly show how you have used such an experience to your advantage and have grown with it. It’s best to use the first essay if you have an international experience to show and the second essay if you don’t.
6. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay 6: Is there anything that you have not mentioned in the above essays that you would like the Admissions Committee to know? (200 words approx.) This essay is optional. The stringent word limits of all the required essays indicate that INSEAD would like a crisp and to-the-point application. Hence, write this optional essay only if it makes your candidature outstanding. However, this essay can be effectively used to give explanations for any specific weaknesses in your profile, like a gap in work experience, a low undergraduate GPA, an absence of recommendation from your current employer, etc. But rather than seeking excuses for any such weakness, try to demonstrate a strength that explains and makes up for that weakness. Also if a weakness can also potentially show up during your MBA at INSEAD, give convincing reasons to the adcom how you will not let it show up there.
7. INSEAD Essay Questions The content in the file is copyright of the author and Apphelp. Copyright 2006. All rights reserved. INSEAD Essay 7: In case of reapplication, please use this page. Your essay should state any new aspects of professional, international, academic, or personal development since your last application. We would also like you to explain your motivation for re-applying to INSEAD. This essay should not exceed 400 words. This essay is only for reapplicants. The word limit is tight. So, touch briefly on your improvements in all the areas mentioned in the question, but specifically focus on the weakness that held you back last time. If you received any feedback from the adcom last time on any specific weakness, show how you analyzed and introspected on it, what corrective actions you took and how you have successfully eliminated it or better still, made it your strength. You should also use the second part of this essay to make a strong case about your belief that the unique 1 year INSEAD program is really the ideal one for you to get the tools you need to succeed on your medium and long term goals.
