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.

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.

1. Mia’s Tea Party
It was the day before Mia’s birthday. All the invitations
for the tea party had been sent out, and the house was
busy with preparations. Mother had begun slicing apples for
apple dumplings. Father was setting up the dining room so
that there would be enough room to display all the delicious
snacks and desserts that Mother was baking. Her brother,
Lucas, had gone outside to wash and brush Pegasus’ coat.
Mia was so excited! With two baskets in her hand, she
raced to the patch at the front of their house to pick
strawberries.
A chilly wind had begun to blow, but Mia, busy with her
strawberry picking, didn’t pay attention. As she filled her
baskets with strawberries, she smiled at thoughts of the
party the next day. “I’ll wear my pretty dress with the bows
on the sleeves—the one that flares when I spin. Mother
has promised to make apple dumplings and strawberry
tarts and pecan pie, and we’ll drink apple cider. It will be so
wonderful!”
Everything seemed to be going perfectly. With her
baskets filled, Mia ran back into the house.
“Dear me,” said Mother, “you picked enough
strawberries to feed all of Golden Sun Valley.” She felt
Mia’s rosy cheeks and said, “It’s cold outside. Why didn’t
you put on your overcoat?”
“Oh, I wasn’t out for long,” said Mia, as she rubbed her
arms for warmth.
2. That night during dinner…
“Achoo!” Mia’s eyes had begun to water and her nose had turned bright
red. “Achoo!”
“Oh, darling, I think you’ve gotten chilled,” said Mother.
“I can’t have a cold! I have to be fine for tomorrow!” said Mia as she
sneezed again. “I’m fine, truly.” But her eyes began to droop and her cheeks
were flushed.
“I think that bed is what you need right now,” said Father. “We’ll see how
you are feeling in the morning.”
Mia felt too tired and miserable to say anything. Father picked her up and
carried her to her room. As he tucked her into bed and prayed with her, Mia’s
last thoughts were of the tea party and that she must be better by morning.

Although Mia didn’t feel as bad the next day, she wasn’t fully better.
It was decided that the tea party would have to be delayed until Mia had
recovered.
Lucas came into the room to comfort her.
Mia huddled deeper under the covers. “Mother says I’ve caught a chill and
that I need to rest to recover. Now I won’t be able to have any of my friends
over for the tea party!”
“I’m sorry,” said Lucas. “Maybe there is still something that we can do,
even though the tea party will have to wait. How about I tell you a story? You
love stories … would you like that?”
“What will the story be about?” inquired Mia, forgetting her sadness for
a moment.
“Do you know the shiny trophy that is on the bookshelf downstairs?”
“The one that you won at the fair racetrack with Pegasus?” Lucas
nodded. “Father says that you did so well to win that race,” said Mia eagerly,
always pleased to hear of her brother’s exploits.
3. Lucas smiled. “Did you know that I hadn’t planned to race Pegasus at all?”
“I didn’t know!” exclaimed Mia.
“I had grown the largest, most beautiful pumpkin ever, and I was to enter it in the pumpkin
contest. But only a week before the fair, our goat, Artemis, escaped from his pen, and that was
the end of my pumpkin.”
“How sad you must have been!” Mia could understand the sort of disappointment that Lucas
must have felt.
Lucas continued. “Yes, I was very sad and disappointed. Much of my perfect pumpkin was inside
Artemis’ stomach, and I would have nothing for the fair.”
“What did you do?” Mia asked.
“I was angry and upset,” Lucas explained. “I wouldn’t come into the house. I felt sorry for myself all
day. When I finally went into the house for dinner, Father came and sat with me. He was sorry that my
pumpkin was gone, but he asked me how long I planned to be sad and feel sorry for myself. He prayed with
me and then suggested that I instead count up all the things that I was still looking forward to at the fair.
“By the time that was done, I felt much better. I was still a little cross about losing my pumpkin,
but thinking about other things helped me not be so sad. We then began to think of what else I
could compete in at the fair. And that’s how I came to race Pegasus.”
“And you won!”
“I did. And now I think I am glad that Artemis ate the pumpkin. If he hadn’t, I might never have
started entering Pegasus in the local races.” Since that time, Lucas and Pegasus had competed in
a number of small events and had done very well in all of them.
“I wish that I didn’t mind so much about my tea party. It’s not nice feeling sick, and I really
don’t want to have to stay in bed,” said Mia, realizing that Lucas’ story had a lot to do with what
had happened to her tea party as well. “What should I do?”
“We can pray. That’s what Father did with me when I was feeling sad that day, and it helped so much.”
Bowing their heads, Lucas prayed. “Dear Jesus, thank You for how You always help things turn
out right. Even when something happens that isn’t so nice for us at first, You can make everything
better in the end. Please help Mia to be happy even though she is sick, and show us if there is
anything else that we can do today that will be fun for Mia on her birthday.”
