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.

Introduction sonia rus
- 1. Hello, my name is Sonia and I´m 11. One of my favorite parties than I am going to present you in my topic, is carnival. I love it, because is really a colorful party. And beside that, that day I can be whatever I want and also a lot of other masks make me laugh, I really like one of my favourite traditional meal called churros. Churros you can eat in Spain in many occasions. Not only for carnival, also in other fairs/festivals (ferias). It is very common to eat them with hot chocolate, for some kind of snack. Maybe have to add that Spanish people really like sweet food, so as I. You can buy them right on the street, in “trucks” which you can move around. I should also add that carnivals in Spain distinguish a lot. Special are known in Cadiz and Canary Islands. In each city they celebrate it in different way. There, carnival is not only wearing a custom and relax, but for example in Cadiz they even make singing competition in masks! Also every year a lot of people go there, because their party is pretty spectacular! Their celebration of carnival last almost for a month! I haven't been there , but I would like to go once, when I will be older. For conclusion I would like to mention that Spanish people like all kind of party, actually most of them, live only for parties. Carnival in Cadiz Churros Sonia
