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 Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Q1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
1.
2. Banner used
to plug more
content.
Barcode, date, issue number
and price.
Price is tiny so as not to draw
attention to it, this doesn’t
advertise the price and
therefore focuses more on the
magazine itself rather than the
price which is normally quite
expensive.
Group photo not all looking at
the camera shows how close and
shows them as a tight knit group.
Mise on scene, shows Kings of
Leon to be a happy , friendly
group
Mast head at top left of
magazine.
Usually left side third but
not for this example.
Masthead follows left hand
side third rule.
Three main colours, (red,
black and white) creates a
house style and
consistency
Colours stand out.
Layering keeps
attention to what's
important.
Faces never covered, attracts
customer. Most important part of
the front cover.
Masthead layered over because its easily recognisable so
doesn’t require as much attention.

3. The masthead is at the top
left of the front cover to
make sure it stands out to
the audience and is easily
recognised for branding.
I decided to use layers to
help with the
advertisement of the
content of the magazine.
This keeps attention to
important content of the
magazine, persuading the
target audience to buy the
magazine.
I stuck to the left hand side
third rule by having the
image positioned towards
the right of the magazine to
draw attention to the text
and therefore the content
of the music magazine.
The main image relates to the
main features of the magazine,
and for this reason it is the
biggest thing on the front cover
to draw attention to the
magazine.
-The face isn't covered over
-Laid back/relaxed shot
I decided to plug artists across
the top to help make it more
gender inclusive, and to help
persuade the audience to
purchase the magazine.
The use of the banner plugs
extra content, showing the
magazine to be full and busy.
By using a range of fonts
and font sizes I made the
front cover look more
appealing making it look
better for the target
audience.
I used three main colours
as a colour scheme (red,
black and white) which
helps to create a house
style, and consistency
when continued
throughout the magazine.

8. •Masthead used to give an identity and for branding, to help with the branding the
masthead is continued through the magazine to make it seem consistent.
•Left hand third rule used to keep my masthead and advertising text on the left side of
the front cover. However Q magazine doesn’t particularly follow this convention with
only the masthead being to the left hand side, this is because they are more concerned
with advertising the main piece of the magazine
•the face of my artist wasn’t covered in order to make the images stand out and to
attract the potential customer to the magazine on the front cover and then to a
particular article on the contents page or double page spread.
•layering on my front cover to keep attention to what’s important as well as to make
my front cover look more interesting and make it appear busy, in a similar way to the
way layering is used on a Q front cover.
•3 main colours for the colour scheme (black red and white) - I did use some grey to
enhance the magazine, which made it look more professional
•different fonts on my front cover as a differentiation tool and to help make certain
parts stand out as well as to make the magazine appear more entertaining.
• I chose to not use a pull quote on my front cover in order to ensure that it didn’t
appear to full or busy, and to keep everything clear and easy to read, unlike the Q
magazine front cover which uses a pull quote to help advertise.
9. •left hand third rule to my contents page where I kept my text to the left

than the images on the contents page(used by Q and mojo)
•kept the text on my contents page in a column structure to give it order and
to make it easy to navigate; this helped the contents page look more
professional as well as conventional as well as it being a familiar convention
for the audience.
•numbering images on the contents page with the page number that they
refer to, in order to aid navigation for the reader.

most interested in by advertising the contents of the magazine. (Q and mojo)
•I labelled the contents page with ‘contents’ and also applied the date of the
issue near to the top of the contents page in a similar style to the Q
magazine
• I continued this use of colours throughout the magazine to create style and
consistency which would help the magazine to flow.
