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.
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.

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. How Olympics came to Vancouver

4. The Olympic Torch Relay
There is one very amazing thing that made this Olympics so great.
That was how patriotic Canadians were. What made Canadians so
patriotic was how the Olympic torch went all across Canada. It made
all Canadians become a part of the Olympic games. The Torch
made an amazing journey over 1,000 communities across Canada
starting in Victoria and ending in Vancouver.
This video is about the
Torch going across
Canada.
5. The lead up problems
There were many problems before the games, some of the many
problems were:
• Almost 30,000 spectators got turned away from Cypress to view the
sports up there because the standing room was unsafe because of
too much water.
• It was raining, not snowing at Cypress Mountain so they had to
import snow from other mountains
• Luger Nodar Kumaritashvili died after crashing at the Whistler
bobsled track just before the opening ceremonies
• During the opening ceremonies one of the four pillars in the Olympic
cauldron failed to rise
• This one isn’t really a problem for the Olympics but for Canadian
fans, Canada had never won a gold medal at the Olympics in
Canada.

7. The Opening Ceromonies
The opening ceremonies in the Vancouver
2010 games were amazing. Many people
said the ceremonies would be one of the
worst ceremonies ever, but I don’t agree
8. The Olympics weren’t starting out well for Canadians or athletes of Canada. Heavy
rain continued on Cypress and was making the events miserable. In the first day no
Canadian had got gold. Many fans thought the curse on Canadians Olympians at
home will continue ( a Canadian Olympic competitor has never won a gold on home
soil). Jennifer Heal, didn’t even succeed to win gold in the Olympics and she was
said to be Canada’s 2nd biggest chance to win gold beside the Canadian hockey
team. But it all turned around for Canadian’s when something amazing happened the
next day of the Olympics.
