Jean Baudrillard was a French sociologist and philosopher known for his work on postmodernism and post-structuralism. Some of his key works examined the concepts of simulacra and simulations, and argued that contemporary reality is defined by hyperreality rather than material reality. Baudrillard also analyzed the emerging consumer society and how technology and mass consumption had come to define social and cultural spaces through his works on systems of objects and symbolic exchange.

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
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.

3. 5 Key Works of Baudrillard
1. Simulacra and Simulations
2. Utopia deferred writing from the utopie.
3. The System of Objects
4. Symbolic Exchange
5. The spirit of terrorism.
Geeta Gohil
4. Simulacra and Simulations
Baudrillard’s work consisted a book called ‘simulacra
and simulations’. Simulations meaning that it is
simulating a process, display or imitating something
real. Simulacra meaning the repetition of another
thing, object, person and any static object.
Baudrillard's uses these meanings to explain that
today’s reality is not real and that we all live in
something called a hyper reality.
Baudrillard’s definition of hyper reality is ‘the
simulation of something that never really existed’.
Geeta Gohil
5. Simulacra and Simulations
In his book, he explains that a connection of
simulation with the Borges story. Jorge Luis Borges
wrote a fictional story about the uses of map that
showed the reality of a city but it slowly decayed and
ruined by simulations and the hyper real.
Baudrillard's main arguments are fore phrase: ‘One
that reflects a basic reality, one that masks or
perverts a basic reality: one that mask the observe of
a basic reality: and one that beats no relations to any
reality.’
Geeta Gohil
6. The System of Objects
One key component to postmodernism is Technology.
Baudrillard analysed technology and expresses the
emerging consumer society.
Technology has become non-fictional and designed
according to fantasy and desire objects become
representational of fetishism and fashion.
Hypermarkets become the new experimental space of
technology and consumption, the new spaces of everyday
life.
Growth in objects, procession of generation of products,
appliances and gadgets.
Geeta Gohil
7. Symbolic Exchange and Death
Symbolic exchange is one of Baudrillard’s key
concepts and is derived from his accounts of so-called
‘primitive’ people.
Symbolic exchange is a process whereby the status of
the individual involved changes as much as the
status of the object.
Baudrillard's work is essentially about the way in
which in contemporary society the symbolic is
replace by the semiotic.
