This document summarizes a project conducted by students at Osnovna škola Bartola Kašića school in Vinkovci, Croatia as part of an Erasmus+ program. The students surveyed their peers about familiarity with proverbs and found that most students did not understand the meaning of common proverbs. The students then worked to find matching proverbs in English and German to the Croatian proverbs. They created posters with proverbs and illustrations in three languages to show how proverbs can have the same meanings across cultures. Laminated proverb bookmarks were distributed at community events to help preserve proverbs.

Discourse Community Angela Carter once said, Language is p.docxlynettearnold46882
Discourse Community Angela Carter once said, “Language is power, life and the instrument of culture, the instrument of domination and liberation.” In the Literacy, Discourse, and Linguistics, James Paul Gee indicated “language” is a misleading term, it too often suggests “grammar”. A person probably still does not know how to use a language, even though the person knows the grammar of that language perfectly. In the viewpoints of James Paul Gee, he suggested people must say or write the right thing in the right way while playing the right social role and hold the right values, beliefs and attitudes when people are using language. Gee called the combinations of saying (writing) – doing – valuing – believing as “Discourse”. Sometimes, people could not find out a comfort place of a group or community. As Gee said “We acquire this primary Discourse, not by overt instruction, but by being a member of a primary socializing group (family, clan, peer group). Further, aspects and pieces of the primary Discourse become a ‘carrier’ or ‘foundation’ for Discourse acquired later in life.” People should adjust themselves to fit in different communities. However, for some introverted people such as Ocean Vuong, they would choose to “surrender”. “Normally, my poor writing abilities would excuse me from such assignments, and I would instead spend the class mindlessly copying out passages from books I’d retrieved from a blue plastic bin at the back of the room. The task allowed me to camouflage myself; as long as I looked as though I were doing something smart, my shame and failure were hidden”
Diagnostic Essay
The summer after I graduated from high school I worked as an intern of JW Marriott Hotel in Shanghai, China. During that time, I helped to plan several Banquet &Wedding Event and International conference preparation.
In the first morning of a busy week, everyone came to hotel early. Some people talked about their weekends to others while changing into their working suits. Some people were doing their own things or just relaxing. Everything was silent in few seconds after the “bald guy walked in. He was the manager. By the time, a 6 feet tall young man who wear a green flight jacket with black hair burst in the lobby. Everyone stared at him because he was panting and puffing. He said “Sorry for being late”. However, the bald guy did not say anything. After the “morning speech” of the “bald guy”, most people just ignored the new guy and headed into the work. There were also couple guys saying hello to him and want to pretend to be friendly. At this time, John came over. John was the foreman of the group and the person who always tour the new guy around to every part of hotel and introduce him to others. John said “Hey, how’s going man? I’m John. Do not worry about the first time late, it would be fine being early since now. Let’s start your first day.”
When John walked him around, he seemed kind of nervous. He would touch his hair and bite lo.

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.

PROVERBS - WISDOM
FROM THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE
2. A proverb is a simple and concrete saying, popularly known and
repeated, that expresses a truth based on common sense or the
practical experience of humanity.
Proverbs play many roles in society.
The most common role that a proverb plays is to educate. They
are most often tossed around as expert advice in conversation,
their role is to educate people on what might happen if they do
something.
A proverb as a little bit of wisdom that just about everyone – no
matter where they are from – can offer. There is a proverb for just
about every circumstance, and proverbs can be applied to any
situation.
Self-help literature has become very popular , but proverbs offer
useful adivce on how to solve a problem in just a few words.
3. We want younger generations to save proverbs from oblivion.
First we conducted a survey to see if students are familiar with
proverbs’ meaning.
Students were given 9 proverbs, they were asked to indicate
whether they had heard them or not. They also had to write
what they think the meaning of the proverbs is.
4. Survey showed that students don’t understand most of the
proverbs.
Most students understood the meaning of
“U laži su kratke noge.” (Lies walk on short legs.) and
“Gdje mačke nema, tu miševi kolo vode.” (When the cat’s away,
the mice will play.)
Most students didn’t understand the meaning of other proverbs.
Less than 10% of students understood the meaning of
“Mnogo babica, kilava djeca”. (Too many cooks spoil the broth.)
“Reci popu pop, a bobu bob.” (Call a spade a spade.)
“Ne pravi ražanja dok je zec u šumi.”
5. All students were asked to talk with their elders at home,
especially grandparents, and to bring to school as many
proverbs as they can.
They brought lots of different proverbs.
The next step was to find corresponding proverbs in
English and German, foreign languages taught at our school.
The aim was to show that all nations have proverbs, some even
use the same words. If diferent words are used, the meaning is
still the same.
Students made posters containing proverbs in three
languages and illustrations. Posters were hung in some
calssrooms.

At Open Doors Day there was a
workshop for students.
They were given three lists with
parts of proverbs that should be
connected (in Croatian, English
and German).
After that the task was to fill in
the table by writing corresponding
sentences.
