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.
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.

what men feel, but at what is the truth of
things.”
6. Continued……
George Berkeley ( A Treatise Concerning The

evidence of knowledge, and be less disturbed
with doubts and difficulties than other men.”
7. What is education?
Plato : “Education the initial acquisition of

13. Salient Features: Mind, Thought or Spirit are
important World is the projection of mind or
spirit According to Theism God and Universe
are separate Universe is created by God
According to Pantheism this Universe is the
projection of God The creation of this
Universe is purposeful Ideas are eternal and
everlasting Man’s nature is spiritual Ideas are
true reality
14. Continued…… Idealists use deductive method
Knowledge gained through revelation and
intuition is the best knowledge Knowledge
through senses is uncertain knowledge
wisdom, thoughts and consideration are the

has no reality
15. Goals of Education:
Educators are interested in the search for
truth through ideas.
They encourage students to search for truth
as individuals.

the pupil of Plato is the founder of realism
He said, ideas may be important in
themselves, a proper study of matter could
lead us to better and more distinct ideas

without matter, but there can be no matter
without form”
20. Religious Realism: Thomas Aquinas (1225-
1274) Leader of Religious Realism He argued
that: “Since God is pure reason, then the
universe is reason, and by using our reason,
as Aristotle suggested, we could know the
truth of things.” He emphasis on using our
senses in order to obtain knowledge about
world, and his proof of God’s existence
depend heavily upon sensory observation
21. Development of Modern Realism: Francis
Bacon(1561-1626) He was against Aristotle.

possible
23. Continued….. Revelation can be the source of
knowledge for religious Realists Values are
immortal Individuals are important
24. Goals of Education: Develop intellectual
abilities To equip students with information
to understand current event
25. Role of the Teacher: Having a solid grounding
in science, math's, and the humanities.
Competency testing of students with various
methods Read to adopt new technology To
teach disciplined knowledge Teacher should
be competent in subject matter Teacher
presenting ideas in a clear & consistent
manner There are definite ways to judge
works of art, music, poetry and literature
26. Methods of Instruction: Lecture, question
&answer (formal ways of teaching) Inductive
& scientific reasoning Competency-based
assessments as a way ensuring that students
learnt what they are being taught Emphasis
on critical reason aided by observation (our
experiences) & experimentation Stressing
precision and accuracy in math, science,
social studies and writing
27. Curriculum : Curriculum consists of the
basics – math's, science, reading etc.
Attention is given to didactic & object studies
in education (use of pictures, TV, videos in
educational process) Use of objects in
education (Montessori) Emphasis is on
subject matter (highly organized & systematic
in approach)
28. Pragmatism : History : it is a Greek word Its
meaning is “work” It is viewed as a twentieth
century philosophy developed by Americans
This philosophy is linked with “Scientific
revolution”
29. The American Pragmatists: Charles Sanders
Peirce(1839-1914) True knowledge of any
thing depends upon verification of our ideas
in actual experience William James(1842-
1910) Truth is that which gives benefits to
man John Dewy(1859-1952) He changed
Pragmatism into Instrumentalism He did not
believe in Supreme Power He related
philosophy with the problems of daily life and
their solutions ( benefits)
30. Salient features: This universe is materialistic
This Universe is just for the benefits of men
Experiences and Observations are the basic
realities man’s status is physical nor spiritual
neither moral Scientific proofs are true
realities Knowledge can gain through wisdom
Just practical knowledge is the right
knowledge Values are temporary and
changeable Values are created by man
31. Goal of Education: Primary goal of education
is growth. Education is for life. Education
should not be locked upon merely as
schooling and the acquisition of academic
subject matter but as a part of life itself.
Schools should balance the needs of the
society and students Helping people direct,
control and guide personal and social
experience (self-actualization) Education
should promote our individualism (self-
directed learning)
32. Role of the Teacher: Applies democratic
methods Classroom is a community of
learners Teacher facilitator not authoritarian

questions and helps plan and implements
courses of study Teacher writes curriculum
and must have a command of several
disciplines to create and implement
curriculum
33. Methods of Instruction: Problem solving,
experiential learning, inquiry methods, field
trips, projects Learning in groups and

(flexible methods are used) moveable chairs,
freedom in class etc. Lockstep, rote
memorization of traditional schools are
replaced with individualized studies. Action-
oriented education (activity-oriented

and God Problems can solve through
subjective thoughts Freedom of man is the
basic reality Man’s consciousness tells about
right or wrong Man is over burdened due to
values Emotions and decision power are the
basic elements of man’s personality
37. Goals of Education: Education should focus on
the needs of individuals, both cognitively and
affectively. Education should stress individuality.
(Education should include discussion of the
nonrational and rational world) Education is an
activity liberating the individual. Individuals are
responsible of consequences. Individuals should
be given credit for the creation of concepts like
peace, truth, and justice. So, focus is on humans
and their ideas. Good education would encourage
individuals to ask such questions: “Who am I?”,
“Where
38. Role of the Teacher : Emphasizes individual
choices (there is no common way of viewing
world) Both Teacher and students learn from
each other & their relation is more friend to
friend Thus the role of teacher is an intensely
personal one that carries with it a tremendous
responsibility. Due to the greater experience &
knowledge, it is the Teacher’s responsibility to
develop an educational environment that
promotes awareness of the past and present, and
of the future possibilities.
39. Methods of Instruction: Stressing individual
freedom Empowering students to make
choices about what and how they will learn
Educational methods which help Teacher in
the opening of a whole new world of
possibilities for students. Students become
more articulate and capable of
comprehension and self-expression with the
help of teacher’s existentialist approach.
40. Curriculum: Stressing arts an literature, little
emphasis is given on math and science The
humanities are considered in an existentialist
curriculum because they deal with the
essential aspects of human existence, such as
the relations between people, the tragic side
of human life as well as the happy. Through
humanities, the existentialists try to awaken
modern individuals to the dangers of being
swallowed up by the technology (wide
awaken)
