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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Dear Mrs. Jones,
I wish to clarify that I am not an exotic dancer.
I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter
how hectic it was last week before the blizzard
hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we
had, and that several people were fighting over
the last one. Her picture is supposed to depict
me, selling the last snow shovel we had.

• Assess whether the sub-structure of the main body
is really the most suitable one to present your facts.
• Examine the layout and general appearance.
• Determine whether the tone and balance are
correct.

• Check the use of English, punctuation and spelling.
43.
44. 4 Editing
• Assimilate: What is the report trying to achieve? How
has the writer attempted to achieve this?
• Question: Are all the facts, arguments, conclusions
and recommendations accurate, complete, convincing
and justified? Be prepared to face some very detailed
questioning.
• Evaluate: How significant are the findings?
• Check: Will the writer need to provide any further
evidence?
45. 4 Editing
• Amend: Will the report need to be re-structured?
• Edit: What changes will need to be made to the content
or presentation? Are the most important findings,
conclusions and recommendations given due
prominence? Are less important findings confined to the
main body, an appendix, or perhaps omitted?
• Finalise: Is the report now written to the standard the
recipients require, or, in an organisation with many
levels of management, to the standard other senior
levels require?
