Russia has vast territory covering over 17 million square kilometers, but its geography presents both opportunities and challenges for its economy. While the land provides natural resources, much of Russia's area is sparsely populated due to harsh climates and long distances between cities in the west and resources in the east. However, climate change may help Russia's economy by opening new land and sea lanes for trade and resource extraction.
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.

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.

7. TASK
• 7 minutes - label the
countries surrounding
Russia using an atlas
• Stick in Russia fact file.
• One might expect that with
so much land, you should
have the resources to
compete economically on
the global stage
11. Is Russia’s geography a blessing or a curse?
In which part of Russia are the majority of its cities?
Identify two reasons why much of Russia is sparsely populated? In one or two sentences, explain
why this might be an issue for the country.
Describe the distribution of Russia’s natural resources.
Russia is the world’s largest country covering just over 17 million square kilometres. Why might this
be considered a curse rather than a blessing?
How might climate change help Russia’s economy? What new industries are emerging as a result of
the changes?
15. Every year, clandestine crews of men head to the region to look for hidden
treasure: the tusks of woolly mammoths that lie frozen in the permafrost.
It’s dirty, backbreaking work. They sleep in makeshift tents, live off canned
beef, noodles and vodka, and operate illegally, ripping the mammoth remains
from the earth with a level of brute force never seen before.
They sell the mammoth tusks at great profit, creating a new ‘gold rush’ – not
in precious metals, but in body parts.
16. TASK
Does the country’s geography
help or hinder the Russian
economy?
• State your argument (e.g. you think it helps or
hinders the economy of Russia)
• Two (perhaps three) points supporting the
argument.
• One point acknowledging a counterpoint.
• Overall conclusion – consider how this might
change in the future…

News headlines perhaps suggest that Russia is having a greater influence on the world stage as part of a new multipolar world.
Our previous work on evaluating the power of countries suggests that Russia might not be a major global power. Although it might be strong militarily, its economic, political and cultural status suggest that it is a smaller power than it perhaps projects.
Russia’s economic power is, in part, influenced by its geography.
Watch the Vox film, and note down some of the evidence mentioned in the film.
Groups are given resources looking at climate, resources and farming, population density and transport.
Give an appropriate time for the task.
Students stick in resource page and then answer questions in their books.
Plenary – run through the answers to these questions using the answer below. Ask students to add additional material to their answers as you go through.
West
Climate (limits agriculture) and relief (Ural mountains block access to major markets)
Distributed across Russia, but some key resources concentrated in northern Russia and Siberia
Even though this gives great resource wealth and opportunity for agriculture, it is hugely expensive and time-consuming to transport these resources long distances to markets in the west.
Resources in the north might become more accessible (e.g. melting permafrost), transport goods more easily throughout the year as winters become shorter, melting sea ice in the north might open up arctic ports in the north all-year-round.
Differentiation
Give some students a side to argument (i.e. it hinders the Russian economy).
Use sentence starters for each paragraph
