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.
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.

2. The Band Wagon Fallacy
A Common Core Lesson

Dean Berry, Ed. D.
Gregg Berry, B. A.

3. Common Core Reading Standards
Delineate and evaluate the argument and
specific claims in a text, assessing whether
the reasoning is sound and the evidence is
relevant and sufficient; recognize when
irrelevant evidence is introduced.
4. Common Core Speaking
and Listening Standards
Engage effectively in a range of
collaborative discussions (one-on-
one, in groups, and teacher-led) with
diverse partners on topics, texts,
and issues, building on others’ ideas
and expressing their own clearly.
5. Common Core Speaking
and Listening Standards
Delineate a speaker’s argument
and specific claims, evaluating
the soundness of the reasoning
and relevance and sufficiency of
the evidence and identifying when
irrelevant evidence is introduced.
6. Reading with Your Eyes and Your Brain
Skillful readers learn how to read persuasive or
opinionated text with a very critical eye. They
realize that the author’s purpose is to convince the
reader to believe what the author is saying and to
consider the arguments given as valid even if they
violate logical reasoning and lack supporting
evidence. The author’s motive may be to get the
reader to buy something, vote a certain way,
change an attitude, or behave differently.
7. • In order to avoid manipulation by the author,
good readers learn how to detect poor
reasoning and faulty arguments. They are
able to identify the various logical fallacies
such as begging the question, strawman,
overgeneralization, slippery slope, and
others. During this lesson, we will study
logical fallacies.
8. Even huge tobacco companies have been
able to use convoluted logic to confuse
people about the safety of their products.
9. We know that we shouldn’t follow sheep off
of a cliff. But the band wagon fallacy is often
very successful in changing our behavior.
10. Appeal to the people: Bandwagon Fallacy
The bandwagon fallacy, also known as the appeal to the
people, uses the argument that if a sizable number of
people, or perhaps even a majority, believe in something,
that is enough evidence to support the idea or product.
Fallacious arguments using the band wagon technique
have impeded the widespread acceptance of innovative
ideas or new concepts.
11. Damage Caused to New Scientific Knowledge
Galileo, for example, faced ridicule from his
contemporaries for supporting Copernicus’s
model of our solar system. Scientists have
often had to overcome the bandwagon effect
in which old ideas, not supported by solid
evidence, were difficult to change even in
light of new scientific proof
12. Don’t be left out- Join the group
Luring people into accepting that which is popular
is a method frequently used in advertising and
politics. For example, All the cool kids use this hair
gel; be one of them. Although becoming a “cool kid”
is an enticing offer, it does nothing to support the
imperative that one should buy the advertised
product. Politicians frequently use similar rhetoric
14. We all hate to be left out.
The bandwagon fallacy is seductive because
it appeals to our desire to belong and to
conform and to our desire for security and
safety. It is a common appeal in advertising
and politics. A clever manipulator of the
masses will try to seduce those who
unwittingly assume that the majority is
always right.
15. Let’s examine how the bandwagon works.
“If tanning beds were really unsafe, then
millions of Americans would not be using
them every week. Neither can the sun be all
that harmful to your skin. Virtually everyone
I know goes to the beach every year for one
primary purpose—the sun. Do you know
anyone who goes to the beach and then sits
inside the hotel or beach house?”
16. The "Rachel" haircut that was wildly popular in the late nineties is a
great example. Women who watched Friends all of sudden had to
have the same exact haircut. Since Jennifer Aniston “debuted this
style as the character Rachel on Friends in the '90s, more than 11
million woman have tried the cut. Fifteen years later it's still a
frequent request, making the "Rachel" one of the most
popular hairstyles of all time”
17. “I’m going to buy the new Prince CD. It’s
been at the top of the charts for more
than a month. It must be a good one.”
18. There must be something to
astrology. Millions of
Americans can’t be wrong.
19. Avoid peer pressure and jump on the bandwagon
This line of "reasoning" has the following form:
• Deshawn says that he likes the idea that people should
work for their welfare when they can. His friends laugh at
him, accuse him of fascist leanings, and threaten to
ostracize him from their group. He decides to recant and
abandon his position to avoid rejection.
21. Where’s the Evidence?
The Bandwagon is a fallacy in which a threat of
rejection by one's peers (or peer pressure) is
substituted for evidence in an "argument."
22. Is there evidence to support the claim?
Arnold Killembetter’s movie "Tasty
Garbage" is the greatest movie of
all time. No movie has made as
much money as it did. We should
see it!
23. Is this a fair statement? Do people
tend to follow the crowd? Why?
24. Does this claim use the bandwagon fallacy?
I can’t believe you’re going to the
library on a Friday night! You
don’t want people to think you’re
a nerd, do you?
