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.

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
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.

27. Numerous wars between the Teutonic Order and Poland
were waged in this territory in the 15th century.
In 1414 Olsztyn suffered under the troops of King Władysław
Jagiełło.
A next war with the Order, waged in the years 1519–1521,
ravaged Warmia.
The administrator of the landed property of the Warmia Chapter
at that time was a Frombork canon – Nicholas Copernicus.
In 1521 he prepared the Olsztyn castle effectively for its defence
against the expected attack of the Teutonic Knights. During that
time, Copernicus was also the initiator and executor of the
settlement of Polish-speaking settlers from Mazovia in Warmia.
28. Due to the First Partition of Poland (1772) Warmia together with
Olsztyn was incorporated in Prussia.
During the Napoleonic wars the town was destroyed again. On 3rd of
February 1807, Napoleon Bonaparte – the French Emperor stopped in
Olsztyn during his East Prussian campaign.
The second half of the 19th century was a time of dynamic
development. The population increased from 4 thousand in 1846 to 25
thousand in 1895.
In 1907 – Olsztyn was electrified. Trams appeared in the streets. In
1910, the first plane landed in Dajtki.
After World War I – in 1920 – a plebiscite decided the future national
status of the southern part of East Prussia. Olsztyn with Warmia
remained in Germany. In 1939 the town was inhabited by over 50,000
people.
29. On 22 January 1945 Olsztyn was occupied by the Red Army.
Red Army soldiers set fire to the town after several days of their
occupation. Nearly half of the city built-up areas, including the
Old Town, was destroyed.
After 1945 Olsztyn became the capital city of the province.
Today Olsztyn is an important tourist centre mainly thanks to
its location amongst the lakes and forests, but also owing to the
numerous historical monuments and other tourist attractions.
Olsztyn monuments are on the European Brick Gothic Route, Gothic
Castles Route, Copernicus Route, St. Jacob’s Route.
