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.

Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Unit 8 - Information and Communication Technology (Paper I).pdfThiyagu K
This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
2. Suite (smart clothes)
In order to mislead the audience into
believing the protagonist is living a
happy and comfortable life, his clothing
at the start of the film needs to have
connotations of professionality and
riches. The tie is important for the
opening montage, as this exaggerates his
excitement to get to work, which will
develop the characters fantasy.
3. Alarm Clock
The alarm clock will importantly act as a
sound cue for the music to start, acting as
a visual link as the start of the film. I
will do this by timing in with the second
hand, and starting the non diegetic sound
on the alarm noise. It also links with the
homely fantasy, that will contrast with the
morning he wakes up in his real home.
4. Newspaper/magazine
The purchase scene will introduce the theme of
money, but by having Oscar buy an everyday item
like a newspaper, it means the audience an
instantly relate to the character. This is
important for the following story, as they
audience will sympathise with the character
more when it's revealed that it’s all a
fantasy; linking all importantly to Drama
genre. Additionally the topic of the
paper/magazine could hint to a profession or
hobby, adding more character development.
5. Computer (keyboard)
The computer will be used to create a
transition with the help of the radio, as
the typing will be slowed down to create a
distorted effect in a close up of the keys.
As well as this, the computer symbolises
the everyday job that everyone has,
reaching out to a wide target audience. The
screen could also be used to create some
dramatic lighting during the transition, as
the main lights could be switched off, with
only the characters face lit by the screen.
6. Portable Radio
Probably the most important prop in the
short film is the radio, as it will act as
a sound bridge between reality and
fantasy, changing the music from non
diegetic to diegetic music. The prop is
also the only item that will stay
consistent in both realities, to highlight
the fact that they are the same characters
perceptions of reality.
7. Cheap Baggy Clothes
For the second half of the film,(reality)
Oscar needs to look casual and lived in,
so his clothes won't be expensive or smart
like his work clothes from before. Hoodies
and baggy trousers have connotations of
being affordable and even linked with
crime, which helps show the desperate
state of which the protagonist is in.
8. Bike
This prop will be used to contrast with
the car in the first scene to highlight
reality vs fantasy, but also for a
comedic effect, as the front wheel will
fall off, exaggerating that his day can’t
get any worse. It could also lead on to
the character dragging along the bike in
order to slow down the journey.This could
be viewed as a stereotypical slapstick
gesture, that will help me relate to the
comedy sub genre.
9. Jar of Money
This object represents a pinnacle point of the
plot, as the character looks into the jar to
inspire him to improve his financial situation,
to achieve his fantasy. The money inside the jar
will be purposely random and full of change, to
represent how there is no steady income, however
Oscar will still be very protective over the jar,
as it’s everything he has.
10. Pencil and Paper
Oscar will have an old bit of paper
and a pencil in order to begin
writing a CV, representing the
characters progress, and drive for
improvement. Besides this it will
also provide the climax of the film
following the short credit roll,
where oscar decides to carry on the
way he his, and screws up the
paper. This is where the
character's true self is revealed.
