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.

7. Aurora was, in fact, named after Aurora Aragon, the
wife of Pres. Manuel L. Quezon, the president of
the Philippine Commonwealth, after whom the mother
province was named. The early history of Aurora is linked
to Quezon province, of which it formed a part, and Nueva
Ecija, under which the area was governed as the District of
El Príncipe. In 1902, the district was separated from Nueva
Ecija and transferred to the province of Tayabas (now
Quezon).
Aurora became a sub-province of Quezon in 1951
through Republic Act No. 648, and finally became an
independent province during the presidency of Ferdinand
E. Marcos, through Batas Pambansa Blg. 7 enacted on
August 13, 1979.
8. INDUSTR
YAgriculture is the primary industry in Aurora, employing
approximately half of the population. About 49,991 hectares, or
15% of the provincial land area, consist of cultivated land.
Major crops include rice, coconut, coffee, bananas, root crops,
corn, citrus fruits, peanuts and abaca.
Fishing is also a major industry. Of eight municipalities,
seven lie along coastal areas. Approximately one-third of the
province's population located in 48 barangays along the
coastline is dependent on the fishing industry.
The province also has many poultry and livestock
farmers. Chicken is the biggest poultry and livestock produced
followed by swine and ducks. Although there are quite a large
number of carabaos in the province, most of these are used in
farming.

33. Several villages in the coastal plains of Bataan were already thriving
communities when Spanish missionaries found them in the 1570s. Bataan, then
known as Vatan, was part of the vast Capampangan Empire that included what
now are the provinces of Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, and some portions of
Bulacan, Zambales and Pangasinan, These coastal villages were inhabited by
natives who were predominantly fishermen, farmers and craftsmen.
Meanwhile, the hillsides were inhabited by nomadic Aeta tribes.
Bataan was established in 1754 by Governor General Pedro Manuel Arandia.
Before this, the region was divided into two parts: the Corregimiento of
Mariveles and the Province of Pampanga. When the Pacific War broke out in
1941, the selection of the peninsula as the locale of the last defensive stand by
the USAFFE against the invading Japanese forces brought fame and infamy to
Bataan. The loss of life and property cannot be estimated. Bataan then became
the symbol of valor and tenacity in its hopeless stand against the much superior
invading Japanese Imperial Forces. Today, a national landmark called the Shrine
of Valor (Dambana ng Kagitingan) stands majestically on top of the Mt. Samat in
Pilar as testimony to the gallantry and sacrifices of the men and women who
with their blood, tears, and sweat made the grounds of Bataan hallow.
34. INDUSTR
YBataan continues fundamentally an agricultural
province despite of the very fast industrialization
during the last ten years. This province is a major
producer of banana, mango and palay. There are big
industrial establishments in Bataan such as export
processing zone, modern oil refinery, munition and
carbon plants, pulp and paper mills, and thermal
plants.
36. LANGUAGE/DIALEC
TTagalog is the chief language constituting 86
percent of the total population of the province of

mainly as the means of bargaining in business.

56. The name "Bulakan" was derived from the Tagalog word
"bulak" which is cotton in English. When the Spaniards first came to
the country's shore, they found cotton, among others, growing
abundantly in many places in Luzon, particularly in Bulakan.
Prior to the arrival of the Spaniards, Bulakan, as well as the rest of
the towns of Bulacan province, was consisted of small scattered
settlements of villages each then called "barangay", a word derived
from the name of the boats used by the early seafaring Malays who
went to various islands of what we now called Philippines. These
predecessors of our ancestors settled in different parts of the
archipelago, and their villages and barangays swere each headed by a
petty chieftain who bore the title "Gat" as is Gat-Maytan, Gat-Salian,
and "Gat-Dula", and "Lakan" as in Lakandula. These early settlers
lived along the seashores and rivers, thus they were called "taga-
ilog", meaning people who dwell near the rivers or other waterways.
From this term "taga-ilog" came the word "Tagalog".

79. Nueva Ecija was formed as a military district of the province
of Pampanga at the beginning of the 18th Century after the
Augustinian missionaries had reduced some Ilongots into Christian
communities. These communities formed the nucleus of the towns
of Bongabon, Pantabangan and Carranglan. It is said that the
comandancia was so named by the Governor General after his
hometown of Ecija in southern Spain. From being a military outpost,
Nueva Ecija was transformed into a regular province a century later.
Nueva Ecija was one of the first provinces where the
Revolution of 1896 broke out. In 1898, the province came under
Revolutionary control. Cabanatuan became the seat of the
Revolutionary government in May 1899. In June of that year, General
Antonio Luna was assassinated in Cabanatuan in one of the most
tragic episodes of the Revolutionary War.

inhabiting riverbanks.” Pampango is the Spanish version of
“Pampanga.”
