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.

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.

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

3. Amity Business School
Payback Period
• The payback period is the time duration required to
recover the initial cash outflows. This method is
based on cash flows and not on accounting data.
Initial cash outflow
• Payback period =
Annual cash inflow
4. Amity Business School
If the cash inflows are not uniform then
Payback period = time period in which the
cumulative cash flows are equal to initial
inflows.
Payback period = time period in which the cumulative cash flows
are equal to initial inflows.

ACCEP/REJECT RULE
If the calculated payback is less than any predicted value then an
investment proposal is acceptable, otherwise it will be
rejected. i.e.
• Accept the project if Payback Period ≤ Maximum
Acceptable Payback Period.
• Reject the project if Payback Period > Maximum
Acceptable Payback Period
RANKING MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE PROJECT
So far as ranking is concerned, the lower the value of the
payback, the higher will be the ranking of any investment
proposal. i.e.
Shortest Payback Period should be selected
8. Amity Business School
Evaluation of Payback Method:
• It is a simple method in concept and
understanding.
• Since its emphasis is on early recovery of
investment, it automatically takes care of risk.
• Projects with smaller payback period is considered
safer and secure as compared to the projects with
longer payback
9. Amity Business School
Drawbacks
It takes in to account only early cash flows
which determine the payback and ignores
those which come later. This may often
leading to wrong conclusions.

11. Amity Business School
Interpretation
• If we calculate the payback period for the
above projects it is 2.5 years for project X
whereas for project Y it is 3 years two months.
• However a comprehensive analysis of projects
would show the project Y is superior with
greater value of inflows.
• Secondly, payback method ignores time value
of money.

14. Amity Business School
Interpretation:
• The payback period for both the project is 3
years.
• On the basis of time value of money the project
Y will be superior.
• Payback period is considered only a measure of
capital recovery and it is not a perfect of
measure for profitability.
15. Amity Business School
•In spite of these limitations of the payback
method, it is still widely used in modern
project appraisal mainly because of its
simplicity.
•However, it used only for a preliminary
screening and not for final decision
making
16. Amity Business School
Discounted Payback Period
To overcome the limitation of the payback
that it does not use time value of money,
we may use the discounted cash flows in
order to calculate the payback period.
Obviously the discounted payback will be
longer than the simple payback period.
17. Amity Business School
Example
• A company is
considering a project
with initial outflow of
Rs. 1,00,000. The Cash
inflows from the
project are expected
to be as follows. Find

27. Amity Business School
Scientific Methods
•Net Present Value (NPV)
•Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
•Benefit- Cost (B-C) Ratio or
Profitability Index (PI)
28. Amity Business School
Net Present Value (NPV)
• It is net present value of all the cash flows that occur during
the entire life span of a project
• The outflows will have negative values while the inflows will
have positive values.
• Obviously, if the present value of inflows is greater than
outflows, we get a positive NPV and if the present value of
outflows is greater than inflows, we get a negative NPV.
29. Amity Business School
• The positive NPV means a net gain in value maximization and,
therefore, any project which gives a positive NPV is an
acceptable project and if it gives a negative NPV, then the
project should not be accepted.
30. Amity Business School
NPV can be expressed as follows;
n
NPV = Σ Ct − C0
t=1 (1+k)t
Where
Ct= Net Cash Inflows in different Years (t)
k =The rate of interest or cost of capital at which
funds are to be discounted
C0 = Initial Investment, The initial amount spent on a project
31. Amity Business School
Acceptance Criterion
NPV > 0, Accept
NPV < 0, Reject
NPV = 0 , Indifferent to accepting or rejecting the
project.
32. Amity Business School
Example:
A firm is considering an
investment proposal worth
Rs.80,000. The CFATs (cash
flows after tax) are expected to
be as given.
The rate of discount is 10%.
Find out whether the project is
worthwhile or not.
Year CFATs
(Rs.)
1 15,000
2 22,000
3 27,000
4 29,000
5 21,000
34. Amity Business School
Interpretation:
In this project the PV of inflows is Rs. 84,950.50 while the PV of
outflows is Rs. 80,000. Hence the NPV is Rs. 4,950.50 which
makes the project an acceptable project because NPV is
positive.
35. Amity Business School
Properties of NPV
The NPV method is a very scientific and appropriate technique
of capital budgeting and is therefore, widely used for investment
decision making.
The following properties can be identified.
• It is based on cash flows over the entire life of project.
• It considers time value of money.
36. Amity Business School
• It is an absolute value.
• It possesses the property of additions, i.e. the total NPV of two
projects is the summation of their individual NPVs.
• NPV for different rates of interest can be found separately, and
• It allows different rates of interest for different time period in the
life of a project.
37. Amity Business School
Limitations of NPV:
• It gives the absolute value and therefore, comparison between two
different projects is not easy, especially when they are of different
sizes.
• Many a times, it is not possible to know in advance the rate of
interest at which discounting is to be done. Similarly a given NPV
may not be appropriate if the rate of interest has changed.
• It may lead to wrong decision making especially when limited
funds are available and we have to choose between different
options.
38. Amity Business School
Profitability Index (PI) OR
Benefit- Cost (B-C) Ratio
• NPV is an absolute value and therefore it is not appropriate for
comparing the relative profitability between different projects.
• In order to overcome this limitation of NPV, we make one
modification in it to make it a relative measurement. This is called
Profitability Index (P.I.) or Benefit Cost Ratio (B-C Ratio).
40. Amity Business School
Acceptance and Ranking Rule: -
• If the P.I. is greater than 1, then the project is to be accepted
and if it is less than 1 then it is to be rejected.
• However, if we have, several projects then the project with a
higher P.I. or B.C. ratio should have a higher ranking.
41. Amity Business School
NPV & PI
• The NPV and PI are both based on a given rate of discount
and, therefore, the NPV and PI values change as soon as
the rate of discount is changing.
• Hence, any project which is acceptable at, say, 10% rate of
discount may not be the same at, say, 12% rate.
• Therefore, there is need to find out a technique which is
autonomous in itself and not dependent upon any
externally determined rate of interest.
42. Amity Business School
Q. From the following information calculate the NPV of the two projects and suggest
Which of the two project should be accepted assuming discount rate of 10%.

year is Rs 40,000. Calculate the NPV.
44. Amity Business School
Q. From the following information analyse the two machines and suggest which
Machine should be purchase on the basis of NPV.
Machine X Machine Y
Purchase price Rs.500000 Rs.800000
Life of the machine 5 yrs 8 yrs
Salvage value nil nil
Method of depreciation straight line straight line
Tax rate 30% 30%
Annual sales Rs.10,00000 Rs.10,00000
Variable cost 40% of sales 30% of sales
Fixed cost other than depreciation Rs.100000 Rs.200000
Annuity factor for 5yrs and 8 yrs @ 10% 3.791 5.335
45. Amity Business School
Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
• IRR is that rate of discount at which NPV is
zero.
It can be expressed as follows.
n Ct
0 = Σ
t=0 (1+k) t
46. Amity Business School
Contd.
• The relationship
between discount
rate and NPV for
the previous
illustration of NPV
is calculated as
follows.
Rate of
Interest (%)
NPV (Rs.)
9 7,320.67
10 4,950.50
11 2,677.54
12 496.06
13 −1600.02
14 − 3611.29
47. Amity Business School
Contd.
• This table shows that as the discount rate increase the
NPV goes on diminishing. It can therefore be
understood that a project which is acceptable at a
given rate of discount, say 11% may not be accepted
at 13% or 14%.
• It is therefore essential to know, the cut-off rate
where positive NPV converts into a negative NPV.
This cut off rate is the Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
where NPV is zero.
48. Amity Business School
It can be expressed as follows
The Internal Rate of Return IRR can be calculated by use of
log or by a scientific calculator or by computer instantly.
However, the following method can be used for the purpose.
x
IRR = r +
x − y
Where r = the closest rate at which NPV is positive
x = value of positive NPV at that level
y = value of negative NPV at next higher rate
49. Amity Business School
• For example, in the above illustration, the
value of r = 12%, the value of x = 496.06 and
the value of y = − 1600.02. Hence the IRR is
496.06
= 12 +
2096.08
= 12 + .2367 = 12.2367%
50. Amity Business School
Acceptance and Ranking Rule for IRR
• The IRR should be greater than the given discount
rate (cost of capital) to make a project acceptable.
• If IRR is less than the cost of capital then, the
proposal can not be accepted as it will lead to a
negative NPV.
• Since, IRR is a rate of return, the project with a
higher IRR should be ranked higher than the other
project which has a lower IRR.
51. Amity Business School
Properties of IRR
• It considers cash flows of projects in their entirety.
• It takes into account time value of money.
• It is useful in ranking of projects because it is a rate and not
any absolute value.
• It is independent of any externally determined rate
(discount rate or cost of capital), and hence ranking of
projects will not change with variation in cost of capital.
• It is particularly useful as it helps a businessman and also a
financer in assessing the margin of safety in a project.
• It is more appealing to the businessmen who are used to
thinking in terms of cost and return.
52. Amity Business School
NPV Vs IRR
• Both NPV and IRR are considered scientific techniques of
a project’s financial appraisal and both are commonly
used.
• The NPV is an absolute value of a gain or loss, while IRR
is a rate of return from a given investment and, therefore,
more appropriate for comparison between different project
proposals as well as between a given IRR and different
costs of capital.
• In this respect IRR seems to be having an advantage. This,
however, may not always be so.
