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.

The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

Old Town is the heart of medieval Edinburgh, and has most of its
historic monuments (the Castle, Holyrood Palace and St Giles
Cathedral) It is also home to John Knox, who introduced Protestantism
to Scotland, and a statue of Walter Scott, the famous Scottish writer
and poet.
The Royal Mile is the main street in the old town, which connects
Edinburgh's two royal residences, Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood
Palace. There are three major street routes - Castlehill, Lawnmarket
and High Street. "The Royal Mile" is Edinburgh's most popular tourist
destination.
Cowgate and Grassmarket are also important points in the south of the
old town. The neighborhood is full of pubs, entertainment venues and
antique shops.

This park (actually they are gardens) is located in the valley
between the Old Town and the New Town. It is adjacent to Princes
Street to the north. Between Christmas and New Year's, skating
tournaments are held in the gardens, just below the castle.
In the center of Princes Street Gardens is an artificial hill called
The Mound. Its name means "mound," and dates back to the time when
there was a lake between the Old and New Towns, and the hill was laid
out as a kind of causeway connecting the two parts of the center. The
hill is home to the Royal Scottish Academy, the National Gallery of
Scotland and the Bank of Scotland, among others.

• New Town was built in the 18th century to improve the dire living conditions in
Old Town, which at the time lacked sewage systems, and the narrow and winding
streets contributed to the outbreak of numerous fires. In New Town, wide and
spacious streets were created, built in the Georgian style, with numerous
government buildings and exclusive bourgeois apartments. The checkerboard of
parallel streets, as well as the buildings themselves, offices and banks,
exemplify perfect, even classic and elegant simplicity.
• In the center of New Town is George Street, with its many chic stores and
restaurants adding to the prestige of the area. It lies parallel between Queen
Street and Princes Street, a wide and elegant street with large buildings at
both ends. At its western end is Charlotte Square, as well as St George´s
Church. St Andrews Square with the Melville Monument and the Royal Bank of
Scotland lie at the opposite end of George Street. Princes Street has become the
most popular street in Edinburgh due to its excellent view of the castle and
proximity to the park. The most impressive building is Register House at the
northeast end of it. Waverley Market is also located here, right next to
Waverley train station.

• Behind Holyrood Palace, the park rises to the foot of an extinct

• The port area of Leith seems to be separate from the rest of the city
- residents consider their neighborhood a separate town. This is
somewhat true, as back in the 19th century it was a separate town.
Her Majesty's Yacht Britannia has been moored at the waterfront in
Leith since 1997 and is open to the public. Leith was a source of
inspiration for writer Irvin Welsh.
