Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.
2. Dumb Pretty Nurse An ugly looking but brilliant doctor once told a dull-witted but very pretty nurse, “Even though you have little brains, your looks are simply great!” “ Oh, thank you, Doctor,” the dumb nurse said happily. “You know, how great it’d be if we were to get married …we’ll have children with your intelligence and my looks.” “ What if our children have my looks and your brains?” the doctor remarked. Reflection We cannot assume that things will turn out the way we want them to. When one realizes that the course life can take can be unpredictable, wisdom arises.
3. Irrational Jealousy Husband: Darling, I’ve turned over a new leaf. See …no more strands of ladies’ hair on my shirt. I don’t fool around with women anymore. Wife: Some of my friends said that they have seen you visiting temples. No ladies’ hair on your shirt? You are now fooling around with nuns! Reflection Jealousy is a strong mental defilement. The jealous mind can be most irrational and deluded and this can lead one to real trouble and suffering.
4. The Speaker A well-known motivation speaker gave a talk to a local Women’s Club. At the end of his talk, the secretary of the Club approached him with a cheque meant as reimbursement for his traveling expenses. The speaker declined the cheque and said it could be donated to any charity. “Would you mind,” the secretary asked, “if we put the donation into our Special Fund?” “ Not at all,” the speaker replied. “As a matter of curiosity, what’s the Special Fund for?” “ To enable our Women’s Club to get a better speaker next year.” Reflection One has to be careful and mindful of one’s speech because wrong speech can hurt others and bring about undesirable consequences .
5. Superstition A thief and his accomplice had entered a high-rise building and had stolen some jewelry from an apartment. Suddenly there was a police siren. Thief : Quick Buddy … the police are coming … jump out of the window! Accomplice : But we’re on the 13th floor! Thief : You stupid fool! This is no time to be superstitious! Reflection When the mind is filled with negative states like fear, worry, and anger, it loses mindfulness and calm. A person in such a state can utter or do the most foolish things.
6. The Cheating Husband A wife slapped her husband at the face after discovering a piece of paper with the name ‘ Pattylou’ written on it. “ It was the name of a horse I bet on yesterday,” the husband protested vehemently. The following day the wife slapped the husband again. “ What was that for?” he asked. “ Your horse called last night,” the wife replied. Reflection Dishonesty or lying is a break of a moral precept. This can lead to unpleasant consequences and suffering. Honesty and integrity are great noble virtues to be practised.
7. An Anniversary Wish A married couple, both 60 years old, were celebrating their 35th wedding Anniversary. During their party, a wizard appeared to congratulate them and grant them each one wish. The wife wanted to travel around the world and poof – the wife had tickets in her hand for a world cruise. Next, the fairy asked the husband what he wanted. He said, “I wish I had a wife 30 years younger than me.” The wizard picked up his wand and poof – the husband was 90 years old. Reflection Unwholesome wishes sometimes come true in a most unexpected manner to the disappointment or detriment of the wisher. It does not pay to have thoughts or deeds rooted in greed, lust and delusion or ego.
8. “ I’d do Anything …” A sexy young lady undergraduate entered a young professor’s office. She closed the door and knelt down pleadingly. “ I would do anything to pass this exam,” she pleaded. She then leant closer to him, flipped back her hair, gazed sexily into his eyes. “I mean …” she whispered, “ …I would do … anything.” “ Anything?” the professor returned her gaze. “ Yes, absolutely anything,” she said sexily. The professor whispered to her, “Go back and study your lecture notes.” Reflection Never resort to immoral behaviour to try to achieve your goal. Honest hard work is the only way . Can we have peace of mind if we achieve anything in dishonest ways?
9. An Innocent Question Mokhtar, a naïve primary school pupil asked his father, “Father, where did I come from?” His father knew this question would be coming someday and he was prepared. He gave Mokhtar all the facts about fathers and mothers making babies. He told it very carefully and honestly so that his son would understand. However Mokhtar just frowned in puzzlement. Finally, his father asked Mokhtar,” “ What are you puzzled about? Don’t you understand?” Mokhtar remarked, “That’s really strange … my friend Rudy said he came from Surabaya, Indonesia.” Reflection How often have we given poor, irrelevant or stupid answers because we presume things and jump to conclusions?
10. The Eccentric Interviewer An eccentric boss was interviewing a lady applicant for a post in his company. He had a candle at his desk. The boss asked the applicant, “Why did the elephant eat the candle?” The lady, after a moment of pause, said “Because the elephant was crazy?” The boss laughed sneeringly and said, “No, you brainless lady …because the elephant wanted a light snack!” The applicant was insulted. She wanted to get back at the interviewer. “Sir,” she said, “do you know what kind of candle burns longer, a red candle or a green candle?” The boss was stumped. “ A red candle?” he guessed. “ Neither!” the lady said. “ Candles always burn shorter! No brains!” Reflection It does not pay to try to insult or bring down another person. It reflects on one’s terrible character. The wise practises mindful and kind speech.
11. ‘ Love Struck’ Child The young schoolteacher was concerned about a 12-year old student. One day the teacher asked the student, “Raj, why is it your schoolwork has become so bad lately?” “I can’t concentrate,” Raj said. “I’ve fallen in love.” “Is that so?” the teacher said with a smile. “With whom?” “With you,” Raj answered. “But, Raj,” said the teacher, “don’t you see how silly this is? It’s true that I want a husband of my own one day, but I don’t want a child.” “Oh, don’t worry teacher,” Raj said reassuringly. “I’ll be very careful.” Reflection A person’s words can be misconstrued by another party. This can lead to unintended consequences. One has to be very mindful of one’s speech … it has to be very clear so as not to be misinterpreted.
