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.

Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
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.
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

12. Most people love french fries that are deep fried to a
golden brown with a heavenly smell.
13. Who hasn’t enjoyed a deep fried corn dog
with a luscious, high carb batter.
14. Class Discussion
Do we need to limit how much deep
fried food we eat?
What makes deep fried food less
healthy?
14
15. You can buy buffalo wings on just about
every block in the retail areas of most
cities in America.
16. Not all fat is unhealthy. In fact, our body
requires a certain amount of fat to function
properly. Saturated fats found in red meat,
cookies, pastries, and deep fried foods are
very unhealthy when eaten too often.
Polyunsaturated fats are better to eat.
However, the most healthy fat is
monounsaturated and is considered an
important fat for creating healthy bodies.
16
18. 18
Types of Fat
Saturated
Red meat, pastries, deep fried, chips, cheese, and ice cream
Polyunsaturated
Corn oil, olive oil, peanut oil, safflower oil, and canola oil
Monounsaturated
Fish, nuts, olives, and avocados
19. Dying for some peanuts or
cashews?
According to research released in November
of 2013, nuts are so healthy to eat that a
handful a day decreases the risk of death
from disease by twenty percent! 19
21. Too many Unhealthy carbs can be detrimental to a
person’s health since carbs turn into sugar and
increase the incidence of diabetes.
21
22. Type 2 diabetes is escalating at an alarming rate in
the United States. It appears that the American diet
that is high in sugar and simple carbohydrates is the
blame for the diabetes epidemic. Since diabetes
causes heart disease, blindness, kidney failure, and
the loss of limbs, it is likely that the future health of
many Americans will be compromised if dietary
changes are not made.

23. What do some of the major
diseases do to our bodies?

By making a few changes in dietary
habits, most people can
significantly improve their health.
Eating the right foods can help fight
most major diseases. Those who
continue to get their sustenance
from unhealthy foods face a
perilous future.
26. Eating fruits and vegetables provides
important nutrients. Every cell in our body
requires minerals and vitamins in order to
function properly. A diet rich in fruits and
vegetables enhances the probability of a
longer ad healthier life.
34. Although some people are genetically
predisposed to certain diseases, the way
we live our daily lives can have a dramatic
effect on whether or not we acquire a
disease. For example, some types of
cancer have genetic markers that can be
inherited. But if we eat a nutrition poor
diet and exercise very little, our chances
of getting those diseases increase greatly.
34
35. Our health and longevity are related to the genes we
inherit from parents and the way we interact with our
environment.
35
36. While our genes account for less than 10% of
cancers, our lifestyle causes over 90% of cancers.
Our choices in life will help determine our quality
of life and how long we live.
36
37. Research tells us that there is a direct relationship
between factors such as smoking, inactivity, and
poor diets and the risk of getting a major disease
like cancer, diabetes, or heart disease.
37
38. There are many things we can do to become
healthier. We can start by not smoking, walking
more, and eating healthy foods.
38
39. The vast majority of people who smoke shorten their lives
by many years. Do not be fooled by the 95 year old man
who still smokes. Once in a while a person with very lucky
genes can beat the odds. But for most people the chances
of surviving smoking is worse than winning the lottery.
Smoking is one of the biggest predictors of disease.
39
41. The biggest lifestyle change for most Americans
has been the explosion of fast food restaurants.
There are ten times more fast food restaurants
today than fifty years ago. The decrease in
American ‘s health is directly linked to the high
consumption of fast food with high calories and
little nutritional value.
41
42. Everyone knows that America is getting heavier
and, as a result, less healthy. Obesity is usually
accompanied by higher blood pressure, higher
cholesterol, and higher rates of liver disease,
cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
42
43. Fat in the mid-drift area is more
damaging to internal organs than
fat in other parts of the body.
43
44. While there is no perfect formula for good health,
these are great numbers to improve your health.
44
45. This is a good checklist for
maintaining good health.
45
46. Some foods in our diet need to be limited. Eating bacon, hot
dogs, or packaged meats more than once a week could be
detrimental to human health. Research suggests that the
sodium nitrates used to preserve these meats may increase the
risk of heart disease and cancer. People should avoid having
frequent meals that include these foods.
46
47. Even though genetic diseases, in general,
are not caused by life style, some diseases
that have genetic markers, such as cancer
and heart disease, are precipitated by life
style decisions. People who are genetically
predisposed to a disease need to make
positive life style decisions in order to
maintain good health.
47
49. Increasing the amount of nutritious
vegetables in our daily diet is the
easiest way to improve our health.
49
50. Since Americans spend a lot of time sitting at home, in their
jobs, in their cars, and at school, the best thing they can do is
to get up and walk, run, dance, or go to the gym. Health
improves dramatically in people who increase their physical
activity.
50
51. Feeling good physically and mentally is often
related to our life style choices. A lifestyle of good
health is worth a fortune.
