A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Â
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.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
Â
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 Caesarâs dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empireâs 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 Empireâs 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.

9. ď˝ Stereotyping of race is seen as more harmful than
stereotyping of gender, as media representation
may constitute the only experience of contact with
a particular ethnic group that an audience
(particularly an audience of children) may have.
Representation of Ethnicity
10. ⢠Racial stereotypes are often based on social myth,
perpetuated down the ages. Thus, the media
depiction of, say, Native American Indians, might
provide a child with their only experience of Native
American Indian culture and characters, and may
provide that child with a set of narrow prejudices
which will not be challenged elsewhere within their
experience.

23. Alvarado Theory (1987)
Four Key Themes in Racial Representations:
â˘Dangerous
â˘Humorous
â˘Pitied
â˘Exotic
24. The Exotic
⢠Ethnic groups are seen as
exotic or being âthe otherâ
and are represented as being
strange or unusual. It is
assumed that the dominant
reading of the audience will
be from the point of view of
white people, referred to as
the âwhite eyeâ (Hall 1990).
25. The Dangerous
⢠Minorities are sometimes
represented as a threat to
society. The news and other
media may present these
groups as taking advantage
of a society and exposes, in
some cases, an underlying
institutional racism.
26. The Humorous
⢠In the 1970s, race was a major vehicle for comedy.
Programs removed the threat of different races by
making them the butt of the jokes. There is evidence
of a more positive change.
27. The Pitied
⢠Representation of ethnic groups may
be as deprived groups or victims of
natural disasters like, famine, floods,
and sometimes conflicts. Images of
children are often used by charities
to gain sympathy.
28. Tokenism
Tokenism is a practice of limited inclusion or artistic
and/or political representation of members of a
traditionally marginalised group. This usually creates a
false appearance of inclusive practices rather than
discrimination.
These characters are often represented as blue collar
(lower class) workers.
E.G â Purposely including a member of a minority race
such as a black character in an all white cast
