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.

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.

21. Online tutorial For more information on evaluating websites you can look at the section entitled Judge on INTERNET SOCIAL WORKER at http://www.vts.intute.ac.uk/tutorial/socialwork
22. Referencing A bibliographical reference should contain sufficient information for someone else or yourself to trace the item in a library. It is very important to be consistent and accurate when citing references. The same set of rules should be followed every time you cite a reference. Most academic writing requires you to use the Harvard system to compile the reference list for your assignment. Citations in the text should give the author’s name with the year of publication and then all references should be listed in alphabetical order at the end of the paper/dissertation. …Info taken from your Student Handbook
23. Harvard Method There are examples of how to reference using Harvard Method in your Student Handbook Student Support and Development Service at the University of Leicester also provides guidance and training - see http://www2.le.ac.uk/offices/ssds/sd/ld/resources/writing/ref-bib

25. Plagiarism PlagiarismPlagiarism is to take the work of another person and use it as if it were one’s own in such a way as to mislead the reader. Sometimes plagiarism happens inadvertently, where students fail to read instructions about or do not understand the rules governing the presentation of work which require sources to be acknowledged.
26. Want to find out more? The University of Leicester Student Support and Development Service offers workshops and tutorials – see http://www2.le.ac.uk/offices/ssds/sd/ld/help-with/plagiarism Interactive tutorial on this site is very good.
