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.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

o a Catholic Filipino who just had his divorce

SUZIE

VILMA TEARE
o the manager of the apartment where Tom lives
MRS. WEINSTEIN

o Zoology Department Secretary
JOHN STEIGNBERGH

6. Setting
Bloomington, Indiana
In America, the marriage can be easily trashed. They can
file a divorce paper anytime they want. Unlike in the
Philippines, Filipinos value their family more than
anything not only because of the majority is Catholic but
because Filipinos know how important family is.
7. After their divorce his wife promptly married her American lover of ten
months and moved out of Bloomington, Indiana, to the East Coast, taking
their ten-year-old daughter along.
The story moves back and forth in time. The life of Tomas and Edith
prior to the divorce feels very familiar. Both are graduate students at Indiana
University in Bloomington:
Tomas and Edith, of course, never traveled during holidays, like most
other foreign students on a strict budget. The Thai occupants of Apt. 312
were home, catching up on their term papers because you could hear a
typewriter thoughtfully going tak tak – tak tak tak-tak. The Japanese couple
in Apt. 301 across the hall were doing their spring cleaning and moving
furniture with a lot of scraping. In Apt. 308, the young El Salvadoran couple,
husband and wife, were sobbing again. Were they homesick? Did they leave
small children behind? Had something terrible happened in their troubled
homeland? It was ironic that, for all the vastness of America, Tomas and
Edith, holed up in Campus View, had seen so little during their long stay in
the States.
Summary
8. They had gone outside the state only twice: once to Louisville to
watch the Kentucky Derby and once to Chicago where they visited
the Art Institute and the Museum of Natural History and went up the
Sears Tower to marvel at the dark choppy waters of Lake Michigan
that looked wide as the sea.
Tomas decides to call his wife, in her new home on the East
Coast. The call does not go well; he feels himself begging. His wife
says that perhaps she can take their daughter to visit Dumaguete. He
falls asleep.
Later he woke up in the night, sweating, his left leg dead, his
throat dry, as though he had been breathing through his mouth or
pleading in his sleep. When he got up for a drink of water, tiny
needles pricked his numb foot. He looked at his watch. Three o’clock.
Outside the window, the world lay sleeping. Lights lined the streets,
but in Campus View almost all of the apartments were dark. Only the
insomniac in Apt. 511, pursued by some private demon, was
still pacing the floors. Bluish shadows leaped and scuttled around his
room. The rest were in bed, breathing quietly in the healing dark.
9. Plot
Tomas and Edith, both
graduates of University of Indiana
in Bloomington, married and each
other and had a child. They called
her Suzie.
Edith filed a divorce for her
marriage with Tomas.
Tomas accepted his fate
that he will grow old alone.
EXPOSITION
CLIMAX
RESOLUTION
10. Conflict
•Man vs Man
Tomas wasn’t able to satisfy Edith’s sexual needs.
Because of this, Edith filed a divorce for their marriage.
11. The unflinching depiction of acute loneliness.
The story shows that marriage in other countries
doesn’t have much importance. For them, when
a problem arises, divorce is an easy choice.
Theme
12. CAPTIVE AXOLOTLS
o The situation of the captive axolotls is similar to
Tomas’ in some ways. His heart was mutilated in
the same way the poor lizards’ bodies are sliced
by scalpels. The lizards cannot cry, but that does
not mean they are not in pain. The same goes for
Tom.
Symbolism
13. •DRAMATIC OR PROGRESSIVE PLOT
This is a chronological structure which first
establishes the setting and conflict, then follows the
rising action through to a climax (the peak of the
action and turning point), and concludes with a
denouement (a wrapping up of loose ends).
•FLASHBACK AND SYMBOLISM
The use of the axolotl is as a symbol of Tomas’
struggles clearly shows that in the piece, symbolism
was used. Flashbacks can be seen as well because of
the bits of Tom and Edith’s married life present in
the story.
Plot and literary devices used
14. The story was narrated using the first
person point of view. It can be seen that
the person narrating the story was Tomas
who happened to be the main character of
the story.
