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.

1. JOINTING & POINTING
Students Notes
Immediately after a brick has been laid the surplus mortar is cut flush with the
face. The main purpose of any subsequent joint finishing is to improve the rain
resistance of the wall by compacting the surface of the mortar and pressing it into
close contact with the bricks.
JOINTING
Today most face brickwork is "jointed" which means that the joints are finished as the
work proceeds and should require no further attention at the end of the day.
POINTING
Occasionally architects will specify that the joints be "pointed" in order to achieve a
particular effect.
When new brickwork is to be pointed, all joints are raked 12 to 13 mm deep on the day
the wall is built ready to receive a different mortar at a later date. (fig 1)
The pointing is usually a different colour and may be required to have a particular
profile, e.g. flush, struck weathered, half-round tooled or square recessed, all of which
can also be formed as a jointing process as the work proceeds. (fig 2)
Fig 1. Raked out joints
In these notes, only weather struck and cut pointing will be described, as it is a
commonly used profile for pointing and repointing. (fig 3) Also, it is not practicable to
form the profile as pan of the jointing process because the bricklayers' rhythm would
be disrupted whilst they stopped to apply, to every joint, extra mortar to form the
profile. Forming a weather struck and cut finish is a pointing, not a jointing operation.

TOOLS
Pointing trowels with blades 50, 75, 1 00 and 150 mm long are used with a hand held
hawk. The shortest trowel is known as a "dotter". (fig 4)
Fig 4. 50,75,100 & 150mm trowels

3. THE PROCESS
Pointing is seldom popular with bricklayers, for being a static operation and requiring
patience, care and attention it can be a cold job during the winter. Specialist pointing
gangs are usually engaged for large areas of walling.
Careless pointing can spoil good brickwork and conversely, good pointing can
considerably improve "questionable" facework.
Before pointing begins, loose debris should be removed from the joints with a dry
brush and the work "wetted down" to a damp condition. Wetting down reduces the
amount of water sucked from the pointing mortar by the existing brickwork which if
too great would prevent complete hydration resulting in a weak crumbly mortar.
Fig 5. Cross Joint
CROSS JOINTS
Cross joints are filled first. The pointing mortar should be firmly pressed home and
compacted with the inset on the left-hand side and the "cut" on the right-hand side so
that every joint looks the same width (fig 5)
Both left and right-handed bricklayers must inset on the left and cut on the right to
prevent the completed wall face having a patchy appearance. (fig 6) The inset and cut
projection must not be exaggerated. in both cases 1mm is enough. When the cross
joints are completed over about 1 m² of wall surface, the top and bottom "tails" of
mortar should be pressed away.
Fig 6. Cutting a cross joint Fig 7 Filling a bed joint

4. BED JOINTS
A trowel with a longer blade is used to apply the mortar to bed joints.
Press the pointing mortar firmly into the joints, insetting just 1 mm at the top and "cut
projecting" the lower edge by the same amount. Sloping or "weathered" surfaces, by
shedding rainwater more readily, are considered to provide better rain resistance than
recessed or even flush joints. (fig 8)
Bed joints are cut using a pointing rule.
It is important to cut the mortar bed joints so that they all appear to be the same
width.
Fig 8. A pointing rule and trowel in use
TIMING
Neither cross joints nor bed joints should be cut until the mortar has stiffened a
little. This will ensure a clean cut. The absorption of the bricks and weather
conditions will determine the timing. Bricks with a high absorption will allow cutting to
be carried out sooner than bricks of low absorption. Similarly, cutting can be carried
out sooner in warm drying weather than in cold damp weather. Pointing should not be
carried out if frost is likely or after a long period of frost if the bricks are still
frozen.
EXTERNAL ANGLES
Bed joints should be neatly formed at corners and reveals (fig 9 )

Corners and reveals

5. BRUSHING
At the end of the day a light bristle brush may be used to remove any crumbs of
excess mortar left after cutting the joints. Great care should be taken to avoid
making brush marks in the soft mortar. it may be advisable to leave brushing the
pointing which has been completed late in the day, until the following morning. (fig 10)
Fig 10 The result of brushing joints too soon.
REPOINTING
Before old brickwork is repainted the cause of the deterioration should have been
established. It is usually the result of slow erosion over many years but if it is due to,
say, sulphate attack on the mortar the cause should be remedied first.
The sequence of operations for repointing old brickwork is virtually the same as for
new walling, except that the joints which may be heavily weathered or perished must
be cut out first using a hammer, bolster and "timber dog" with care in order to cause
minimal damage to the bricks.
It is essential that the recess so formed be left square. The brick edges should be
absolutely free of old mortar so that the new mortar (fig 11) can bond effectively
with the bricks. The recess should be no less than 10 mm and no more than 15mm deep.
if it is too shallow the mortar may not have a sufficient bond with the bricks and if it
is too deep it may be difficult to force the mortar in for the full depth.
At the same time lichen and moss should be removed by careful brushing so as not to
damage the bricks. The brickwork should then be dampened, not soaked, and work
should proceed as described for pointing new brickwork.

6. MORTAR MIXES
Pointing mortars should be "fatty" and cling to the trowel. This can be achieved by the
addition of lime which improves the cohesiveness of mortar, its bond with the bricks
and the rain resistance of the brickwork. Under normal conditions of exposure a 1:1:6
cement:lime:sand will be specified as appropriate.
With calcium silicate bricks a 1:2:9 mix may be required. With very dense bricks only
and in situations of extreme exposure the mortar may be 1:1/4:3. In general the
mortar should be no stronger than that used in the construction of the wall
Fig 11. Recessing joints for pointing
MORTAR BATCHNG
whether the cement, lime and sand are all mixed on site or cement is added to
premixed lime:sand, careful measurement for every batch is essential if mortar colour
variations and patchy brickwork are to be avoided. It is virtually impossible to achieve
satisfactory results if measurement or gauging is done by the shovelful.
Consistent results are also difficult if pigments are added on site. The use of
premixed lime:sand for mortars is the only practicable way of producing coloured
mortars.

7. Key Points:
The main purpose of any joint finishing is to improve the wall’s resistance to rain or to the
ingress of water through the joint as well as to enhance the appearance of the wall.
• Today most brickwork is ‘jointed’ which means that the joints are finished as the work
proceeds and should require no further attention.
• ‘Pointing’ is a term used to describe the process of finishing off joints that were raked
out on the day that the brickwork was built. It is carried out after the brickwork is complete.
• Jointing-up brickwork is a critical part of building facework and it should not be hurried.
• One of the most important aspects of jointing up brickwork is to avoid smudging or staining the
surface of the bricks.
• Timing is probably the most important aspect of jointing up.
• The shape of brickwork joints is often done to match existing brickwork and very often the client or
the architect will specify that the joints be finished in a particular way in order to achieve a particular
effect of the finished brickwork.
• There are four common shapes of brickwork joints: flush, raked, half-round and weathered.
• Care should be taken when finishing mortar joints, otherwise the finished brickwork will
look untidy.
• When finishing joints on internal angles, the joints must be formed in such a way as to
emphasise the bonding or tie bricks.
• When filling in the joints, the cross joints are filled in first.
• A bed joint is a horizontal joint within a wall.
• ‘Struck’ refers to mortar in pointing work being pressed inwards with the edge of a trowel.
• ‘Weathering’ refers to a slightly sloping surface arranged to throw off rain water.
• Careless or bad pointing can spoil good brickwork and good pointing can improve
poor brickwork.
• The absorption of water from the mortar into the surrounding brickwork, plus the weather
conditions, will determine when the joints should be cut.
• No bed joints or cross joints should be cut until the mortar has slightly stiffened. This
ensures that a clean cut can be made.
• At the end of the day, or at the completion of the pointing, the surface of the brickwork
can be lightly brushed with a light bristle brush to remove excess mortar or any crumbs
that may be left after cutting the joints.
• Repointing refers to pointing old or established brickwork that has deteriorated.
