Austin Journal of Vector Borne Diseases: Open Access
Austin Journal of Vector Borne Diseases: Open Access is an open access, peer reviewed, scholarly journal dedicated to publish articles in all areas of vector borne diseases including existing or new policy in the relevant areas, impact of all types of vector borne diseases and related medical research methodologies.
Vector-borne diseases are the infections transmitted by the bite of infected arthropod species, such as mosquitoes, ticks, triatomine bugs, sandflies, and blackflies. Arthropod vectors are cold-blooded (ectothermic) and thus especially sensitive to climatic factors. Or Vectors are organisms that transmit pathogens and parasites from one infected person (or animal) to another, causing serious diseases in human populations. These diseases are commonly found in tropical and sub-tropical regions and places where access to safe drinking-water and sanitation systems is problematic.
Austin Journal of vector borne diseases welcomes research manuscripts, review articles, case reports, editorials, letters to the editor, and innovations relating to all aspects of vector borne diseases.

Guidelines 1) Students must write an argumentative philosophi.docx
Guidelines:
1) Students must write an argumentative philosophical essay on a topic relevant to any of the course themes. It is recommended, but not required, that you discuss your topic with me via email or in my office hours (or by appointment) so that I may provide suggestions and help to narrow down and clarify your topic.
2) Each student must select at least two academic sources besides the assigned course reading (e.g. peer-reviewed journal articles, books, or book chapters) to cite in their essay, and these sources must be approved by me (via email or hard copy) any time before the due date for the first draft of the essay. Students may incorporate and cite assigned course readings in their papers in addition to citing two other academic sources. Besides academic works, relevant news articles may be cited as needed, though these do not count as academic sources.
3) Essays must be at least 1200 words (not including bibliography), double-spaced, in Times New Roman 12-point font, with one-inch margins. Sources must be cited according to an official style of the student's choosing (APA, MLA, Chicago, etc.).
4) Essays must be argumentative. You should identify a position that you think needs to be challenged or modified in some way. Present the problem that you are dealing with as fairly and clearly as possible. Then, advance your own argument. Finally, raise at least one objection to your own position, and provide a response to this objection in defense of your view. Avoid "fluff," or unnecessary statements. Everything you write should be relevant to your topic.
Basic Essay Structure
I. Introduction
-Describe the problem on which you are focusing. What is the debate? Briefly summarize your position, the objection you are considering, and how you intend to respond to the objection.
II. Your Argument
-Present your own argument. You should aim to expand upon, reject, modify, or otherwise contribute to some aspect of an ongoing discussion.
III. Objection
-Set up the objection from your "opponent" as clearly and fairly as possible. Be sure to represent their position accurately (as if it were your own position). This objection can come from a real or imagined opposing side. Basically, you should present what you take to be the strongest and most legitimate objection to your own view.
IV. Your Response
-Provide a response to the objection in defense of your own position.
V. Conclusion
-Similar to the introduction; summarize what you've done in the paper and how you've done it. Don't add anything new in the conclusion; only refer to points that are already addressed within the paper.

Based on the information provided, the scenario that would put me at the highest risk of being infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus from the infected student in the crowded classroom would be:
- Sitting or standing very close to the infected student for a prolonged period of time, especially if we were talking face-to-face without any face masks. This would allow the virus to spread more easily through respiratory droplets released into the air by the infected student through coughing, sneezing, talking or breathing.
- Touching surfaces like desks or doorknobs that the infected student had recently touched and then touching my own eyes, nose or mouth without practicing appropriate hand hygiene in between. This could allow the virus to

This literature review explores effective methods for reducing hospital-acquired infections. It discusses how hand hygiene is the most effective way to prevent the spread of infections, as health care workers can transmit diseases through direct contact with patients. The review also examines the history of efforts to control infections and identifies strategies like surveillance programs, staff training, and ensuring sufficient funding for prevention programs. Overall, the review aims to understand how hospitals can develop a culture of hand washing and hygiene to reduce the 100,000 patient deaths per year in the US due to hospital-acquired infections.

Week 4: Week 4 - Epidemiology—Introduction
Epidemiology—Introduction
The study of epidemics is epidemiology. Its primary focus is on the distribution and causes of disease in populations. Epidemiology involves developing and testing ways to prevent and control disease by studying its origin, spread, and vulnerabilities.
As a discipline, epidemiologic research addresses a variety of health-related questions of societal importance. Epidemiologic research methods are used by clinical investigators and scientists who conduct observational and experimental research on the prevention and treatment of disease.
The Cholera epidemic, a case from the 19th century, was enabled by the global movement of people. Having appeared in India in 1817, it spread throughout Asia and the Middle East within a decade. It was reported in Moscow in 1830 and then spread to Warsaw, Hamburg, Berlin, and London in 1831 (Snow, 1855, 2002). When it crossed the Atlantic to reach North America, Cholera gained the notoriety of the first truly global disease.
The modern day world is dominated by free trade and rapid transportation. An unprecedented rate of global interchange of food, consumer products, and organisms—including humans—is occurring. The threat of pandemics in the 21st century has heightened the importance of epidemiology at national and international levels.
Although diseases such as Influenza A (H1N1), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), West Nile Virus, Salmonella, are commonly recognized as epidemics, as they cause large scale disruption of health in populations. The field of epidemiology also addresses epidemics of obesity (Ogden et al., 2007), diabetes (Zimmet, 2001), mental health (Insel & Fenton, 2005), and any other disease that may cause large scale disruption of health in populations.
In general, there are ten stages to an outbreak investigation:
1. Investigation preparation
2. Outbreak confirmation
3. Case definition
4. Case identification
5. Descriptive epidemiology
6. Hypothesis generation
7. Hypothesis evaluation
8. Environmental studies
9. Control measures
10. Information dissemination
Investigation preparation requires a health crisis manager to identify a team of professionals who will lead the outbreak investigation, review the scientific literature, and notify local, state, and national organizations of the potential outbreak.
Outbreak confirmation requires actual laboratory confirmation of the disease, which may involve the collection of blood, urine, and stool samples from ill people and performing bacteriologic, virologic, or parasitic testing of those samples.
Case definition is the process by which we establish a set of standard criteria to determine who is and is not infected with respect to a specific outbreak; that is, a protocol is developed to determine case patients.
Case identification requires the health crisis manager and team of professionals to conduct a systematic and organize.
Influenza Vaccine Case Study
Here are the key pros and cons of influenza vaccines:
Pros:
- They reduce the risk of catching the flu. While effectiveness can vary, vaccines still provide substantial protection for many people.
- They reduce the risk of serious flu complications. Even if the vaccine isn't a perfect match for circulating strains, it often makes the illness milder.
- They can help prevent spreading the flu to vulnerable groups. Higher vaccination rates in the population help create "herd immunity."
- The side effects are usually mild. Soreness at the injection site and low-grade fever are common temporary side effects.
Cons:
- Effectiveness depends on accurate strain prediction. If the vaccine isn't a good match for

Introduction to Epidemiology.ppt
This document provides an introduction to epidemiology. It defines key epidemiological concepts like disease, health, and what epidemiology studies. Epidemiology examines the distribution and determinants of disease in populations. It describes who gets sick and why by studying both sick and healthy individuals. The document outlines John Snow's study of a cholera outbreak in London and how he used epidemiological methods to determine the water source was the cause. Descriptive epidemiology examines person, place and time factors to describe disease patterns, while analytical epidemiology tests hypotheses about causes using exposures and effects. The epidemiological triangle of host, agent, and environment is also introduced to frame the study of disease causation.

Austin Journal of Vector Borne Diseases: Open Access is an open access, peer reviewed, scholarly journal dedicated to publish articles in all areas of vector borne diseases including existing or new policy in the relevant areas, impact of all types of vector borne diseases and related medical research methodologies.
Vector-borne diseases are the infections transmitted by the bite of infected arthropod species, such as mosquitoes, ticks, triatomine bugs, sandflies, and blackflies. Arthropod vectors are cold-blooded (ectothermic) and thus especially sensitive to climatic factors. Or Vectors are organisms that transmit pathogens and parasites from one infected person (or animal) to another, causing serious diseases in human populations. These diseases are commonly found in tropical and sub-tropical regions and places where access to safe drinking-water and sanitation systems is problematic.
Austin Journal of vector borne diseases welcomes research manuscripts, review articles, case reports, editorials, letters to the editor, and innovations relating to all aspects of vector borne diseases.

Guidelines:
1) Students must write an argumentative philosophical essay on a topic relevant to any of the course themes. It is recommended, but not required, that you discuss your topic with me via email or in my office hours (or by appointment) so that I may provide suggestions and help to narrow down and clarify your topic.
2) Each student must select at least two academic sources besides the assigned course reading (e.g. peer-reviewed journal articles, books, or book chapters) to cite in their essay, and these sources must be approved by me (via email or hard copy) any time before the due date for the first draft of the essay. Students may incorporate and cite assigned course readings in their papers in addition to citing two other academic sources. Besides academic works, relevant news articles may be cited as needed, though these do not count as academic sources.
3) Essays must be at least 1200 words (not including bibliography), double-spaced, in Times New Roman 12-point font, with one-inch margins. Sources must be cited according to an official style of the student's choosing (APA, MLA, Chicago, etc.).
4) Essays must be argumentative. You should identify a position that you think needs to be challenged or modified in some way. Present the problem that you are dealing with as fairly and clearly as possible. Then, advance your own argument. Finally, raise at least one objection to your own position, and provide a response to this objection in defense of your view. Avoid "fluff," or unnecessary statements. Everything you write should be relevant to your topic.
Basic Essay Structure
I. Introduction
-Describe the problem on which you are focusing. What is the debate? Briefly summarize your position, the objection you are considering, and how you intend to respond to the objection.
II. Your Argument
-Present your own argument. You should aim to expand upon, reject, modify, or otherwise contribute to some aspect of an ongoing discussion.
III. Objection
-Set up the objection from your "opponent" as clearly and fairly as possible. Be sure to represent their position accurately (as if it were your own position). This objection can come from a real or imagined opposing side. Basically, you should present what you take to be the strongest and most legitimate objection to your own view.
IV. Your Response
-Provide a response to the objection in defense of your own position.
V. Conclusion
-Similar to the introduction; summarize what you've done in the paper and how you've done it. Don't add anything new in the conclusion; only refer to points that are already addressed within the paper.

Based on the information provided, the scenario that would put me at the highest risk of being infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus from the infected student in the crowded classroom would be:
- Sitting or standing very close to the infected student for a prolonged period of time, especially if we were talking face-to-face without any face masks. This would allow the virus to spread more easily through respiratory droplets released into the air by the infected student through coughing, sneezing, talking or breathing.
- Touching surfaces like desks or doorknobs that the infected student had recently touched and then touching my own eyes, nose or mouth without practicing appropriate hand hygiene in between. This could allow the virus to

This literature review explores effective methods for reducing hospital-acquired infections. It discusses how hand hygiene is the most effective way to prevent the spread of infections, as health care workers can transmit diseases through direct contact with patients. The review also examines the history of efforts to control infections and identifies strategies like surveillance programs, staff training, and ensuring sufficient funding for prevention programs. Overall, the review aims to understand how hospitals can develop a culture of hand washing and hygiene to reduce the 100,000 patient deaths per year in the US due to hospital-acquired infections.

Week 4: Week 4 - Epidemiology—Introduction
Epidemiology—Introduction
The study of epidemics is epidemiology. Its primary focus is on the distribution and causes of disease in populations. Epidemiology involves developing and testing ways to prevent and control disease by studying its origin, spread, and vulnerabilities.
As a discipline, epidemiologic research addresses a variety of health-related questions of societal importance. Epidemiologic research methods are used by clinical investigators and scientists who conduct observational and experimental research on the prevention and treatment of disease.
The Cholera epidemic, a case from the 19th century, was enabled by the global movement of people. Having appeared in India in 1817, it spread throughout Asia and the Middle East within a decade. It was reported in Moscow in 1830 and then spread to Warsaw, Hamburg, Berlin, and London in 1831 (Snow, 1855, 2002). When it crossed the Atlantic to reach North America, Cholera gained the notoriety of the first truly global disease.
The modern day world is dominated by free trade and rapid transportation. An unprecedented rate of global interchange of food, consumer products, and organisms—including humans—is occurring. The threat of pandemics in the 21st century has heightened the importance of epidemiology at national and international levels.
Although diseases such as Influenza A (H1N1), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), West Nile Virus, Salmonella, are commonly recognized as epidemics, as they cause large scale disruption of health in populations. The field of epidemiology also addresses epidemics of obesity (Ogden et al., 2007), diabetes (Zimmet, 2001), mental health (Insel & Fenton, 2005), and any other disease that may cause large scale disruption of health in populations.

Self-assessment for
Administrators of
Child Care Programs
Achild care program director must manage manythings at once and still be able to prioritize all tasks
in a day’s time. While remaining calm and collected, the
child care director must also be aware that changes may
affect the staff and the enrolled families. Whether the
director directs a small family child care home business or
a large center, the skills are basically the same. The size
and number affected just may differ.
Day-to-day management is important. But you also need a
strong personal philosophy about children and families, a
long range plan, and set of defined goals developed along
with staff and families.
If you are interested in learning more about yourself and
the skills needed to be an excellent program administrator,
then please work through this self-assessment.

Self Reflection PaperAt the end of the semester, students are re.docx
Self Reflection Paper
At the end of the semester, students are required to write a 5 to 6-page Self Reflection Paper (Times New Roman font size: 12, double-spaced) in the APA style, of what they have taken away from this class. The Self Reflection Paper is somewhat like a process of analyzing, reviewing, summarizing and also questioning the experiences gained; it is not a summary of the seven (7) Modules of the assigned reading from the text, Seven Trends in Corporate Training and Development.
Rationale for Assignment: One way we learn is from experiences—they let us absorb (through reading, hearing and feeling), they let us do the activity, and they let us interact and apply the knowledge we learn when we socialize. Dewey (1933) wrote that another way we learn is by reflecting on these experiences. When we reflect, we are linking what we had just experienced and promoting a mental framework which is more complex and interrelated. This reflection and thinking allow us to look for things that are different, having commonalities, and also those that are interrelated, hence achieving the goal of developing higher order thinking skills.

Our biggest challenge is to have an organization that relies on the
behaviors and interactions of millions of volunteers for its identity.
—GAR Y KOVACS, CEO, MOZILLA CORPORATION
In April 2013, Debbie Cohen, Vice President and Chief of People at Mozilla Corporation, sat at her
cubicle space at the Mozilla headquarters in Mountain View, California, reflecting on her brief but
busy two-year tenure at Mozilla (often called “The Mozilla Project” or simply “The Project”). She
was preparing to meet with CEO Gary Kovacs to discuss the next phase of People efforts at Mozilla.
She marveled at what the mission-based open source
1
organization had achieved in just 15 years.
Mozilla had shown that valuable and competitive products could be produced as open source software
by a small number of employees who were globally distributed in more than 20 countries, along with
millions of global volunteers (called “contributors”) who built, tested, promoted, and supported
Mozilla’s products on their own time—all together referred to as “Mozillians”.
By the end of 2011, Mozilla had revenues of $163 million, up 33 percent from $123 million in 2010.
And by 2013, Mozilla had nine physical offices in Mountain View, San Francisco, London, Paris,
Auckland, Beijing, Tokyo, Vancouver, and Toronto, along with several internet-related products such
as Firefox (free internet browser), Firefox OS (an open operating system for mobile devices),
Marketplace (a creation and distribution platform for apps), Persona (a decentralized and secure
authentication system for the web), Thunderbird (a free, open source, cross-platform e-mail and news
client), and Webmaker (tools and education to help people move from using the web to making the
web).

Open source meant that anyone could use the software, access the code, and modify, improve, and redistribute the modified software.

Senior Design Report SampleDescriptionThis senior design proj.docx
Senior Design Report Sample
Description:
This senior design project is called SafeStride. It is designed and made for people who do not have the ability to walk or need help walking. Many people around the world, and especially in the United States, who do not have the ability to walk without using cranes and crutches. However , there are many who use these tools incorrectly, therefore causing more harm on themselves rather than heeling themselves. So SDSU Electrical Engineering seniors came up with an idea of SafeStride in an effort to improve walking aids. The seniors came up with an idea of a cane that assists better in walking than the crutches and canes we see today. With the development of software technology and programming, students were able to make this cane send and receives data from a program, which then used by therapists and medical professionals to check if the cane is used appropriately by the person or not.
Devices:
There are many devices used in this project. For instance, one device is the Bluetooth RN42 chip. This device is coordinated to send information to a gadget where experts play out their investigation. More so, a lithium-ion battery that has energy which controls the gadgets found in the stick. At the base of the stick, there is a cell that checks the weight applied on the stick by the client. Also, there is a 18560 battery which is utilized to control up the stick's hardware through the charging of the battery. To get this stick working, sensors were used to measure metrics and use signals to send it to microcontrollers, and after they are sent by wireless to the computer.
Cost:
The project costed the students $643.43, $79.94 for the power components, $59.85 for the IMU, $120.54 for the Bluetooth Module, $125.70 for other components, and $151.85 for the materials of the cane.
Purpose of Assignment
This activity helps students recognize the significant role accounting plays in providing financial information to management for decision making through the evaluation of financial statements. This experiential assignment requires students to use ratios to evaluate and analyze a company’s liquidity, solvency, and profitability.
Two-Rivers Inc. (TRI) manufactures a variety of consumer products. The company's founders have run the company for thirty years and are now interested in retiring. Consequently, they are seeking a purchaser, and a group of investors is looking into the acquisition of TRI. To evaluate its financial stability, TRI was requested to provide its latest financial statements and selected financial ratios. Summary information provided by TRI is presented below.
Required:
a. Calculate the select financial ratios for the fiscal year Year 2. (use MS word or excel but excel is more recommended)
b. Interpret what each of these financial ratios means in terms of TRI's financial stability and operating efficiency.

Executive Summary
An executive summary is a brief section at the beginning of a long report, article, recommendation, or proposal that summarizes the document.
It is not background and not an introduction.
People who read only the executive summary should get the essence of the document without fine details.
The executive summary is concise, typically one to two pages long, and presents the main points in a formal tone.
For example, a business plan for an external audience includes financial information and details on the size and scale of a company.
Startups seeking funding and investors treat the executive summary as a way to get the reader’s attention by highlighting specific financial requirements and how it impacts the business strategy.
Summarize the information you’re presenting in a manner that keeps the reader engaged and motivated to continue reading.
Introduction
Introduction:
The opening statement, paragraph, or section should clearly state the document’s purpose and the content to follow.
Deciding on how to use this section comes down to the desired outcome for the reader or audience.
They want to immediately find value in the information you present, so the details included in the introduction should grab and hold the reader’s attention.
Company Information
Company Information:
When writing an executive summary for an external audience, include your company name, a description of your mission or purpose, contact information, location, and the size and scale of your operations.
In some cases, the summary introduces the founders, investors, and corporate leadership.
It might include background information of each that outlines previous industry or startup experience, or historical context on the current state of the company.
When used in a presentation or research report, introduce the team presenting or responsible for the report’s findings.
Products and Services
Products and Services:
The executive summary is the place to highlight the problem you solve or the need you fulfill.
For a report, this is where you might highlight what you researched and what the reader should know about your findings.
For marketing plans or product launch presentations, tell the reader why your service or product is relevant at this particular moment in time.
Market Analysis
Market Analysis:
The executive summary of a business plan might profile the target customer and explain the market opportunity for a product or service.
Consider answering questions like: Is there a five year plan for this market?
How do you anticipate growing the customer base and improving market share?
What stands out from your research about your customers that the reader should know before you summarize the rest of the business?
Competition Analysis
Competition Analysis:
This section should include answers to the following questions:

1. Introduction
This experiment explores the dependence of the period of a simple pendulum on the acceleration due to gravity. A simple rigid pendulum consists of a 35-cm long lightweight (28 g) aluminum tube with a 150-g mass at the end, mounted on a Rotary Motion Sensor. The pendulum is constrained to oscillate in a plane tilted at an angle from the vertical. This effectively reduces the acceleration due to gravity because the restoring force is decreased.
2. Objectives
· Measure the effective length of variable-g pendulum.
· Measure the period of a variable-g pendulum for different values of the tilt angle and verify the dependence of the function T versus .
· Measure moment of inertia
3. Experimental setup:
· Large rod base
· 45 cm stainless steel rod
· Angle indicator
· Rotary motion sensor
· Pendulum accessories
· Air link PASPORT interface
4. Theory
The period of a simple pendulum is given by:
(1)
Where is the acceleration due to gravity and the approximation becomes exact as the amplitude of the oscillation goes to zero. We will limit to angles less than 10° (0.17 rad) where assuming the equality in equation 1 holds produces an error of a fraction of a percent. Here it is understood that is a constant acceleration that acts in the plane of oscillation.
The pendulum we use is actually a physical pendulum (not a point mass) so equation 1 is replaced by the rotational analog:
(2)
where I is the moment of inertia of the system about the fixed axis, m is the mass of the brass masses (150 g) plus the rod (26 g), and r is the distance from the axis to the center of mass of the rod plus masses (~31 cm). Note that I, m, & r are all constant and that I/mr must have the units of length so we may write:
(3)
where is the effective length of a simple pendulum that would behave the same as our physical pendulum. We may then re-write equation 2 in the form of equation 1:
(4)
We will determine by measuring the period when . Then we have:
(5)
In this experiment, the acceleration will be varied by tipping the plane of oscillation of the pendulum by an angle of θ from the vertical (figure 1). The component of g that is in the plane of oscillation is where:
(6)
Figure 1: Components of g
Note that the component of g perpendicular to the plane of oscillation, , is cancelled by forces in the rod since no motion is allowed in this direction. Putting it all together gives:

Finally, combining equation (4) and (6) we have:

• This paper should be over a peace and justice topic the student has a genuine interest in
(and be related in one or more ways with the organization one has selected).
• The student’s identification and initial contact with a peace group or organization must be
an important part of this paper around which selected peace study theory, concepts and
ideas must revolve (consult Louisville Peace Web on Blackboard above where the videos
for this class are located). If a student in this class does not live in or close to the
Louisville area, and a peace and justice organization of interest is in their area, it is best
that that organization be the student’s focus.
• The peace study group or organization with which one will work must be documented in
an appendix to the paper, as well as in the references page(s).
• Students must be given written email approval for the paper topic by the instructor at
least one calendar month prior to the due date.
• The student will provide a purpose for the topic, a tentative title, and, two sources with
one being a peer review journal source in order for approval to be granted.
NOTE: Since the capstone course (PEAC 550) requires a longer paper and hours of work
with a peace and justice organization, this assignment in PEAC 325 is designed to make
the transition to the capstone class considerably easier. As such this paper should not
only focus on an instructor approved topic of genuine interest to the student, but also
requires the documentation of the initial stage of identification, (in-person) contact and
acceptance for later work with a peace and justice organization in the Louisville area (or
the area nearest where the student is located if the student does not reside in the
Louisville area). Additionally, the peace and justice organization name, mission and
goal(s) must be integrated into the paper in an appropriate place.

Selling to the Government: Best Prospects for Small Entrepreneurial Firms
Introduction - Why Sell to the Government?
Selling to the United States government is a multi-billion dollar market – per year. The size of this market cannot be given a specific monetary value, due to the fact that every year, the U.S. government spends more money than it did in the previous year. Trends are showing that government spending increases every year sometimes by as much as ten to twenty percent. Back in the mid-1980s, selling to the government was roughly a $30 billion per year market (Black 1989). Since then, government spending has increased more than ten fold. This is especially apparent in the defense segment of the government. The United States government will not hesitate to spend whatever it needs to satisfy the wants of its defense, regardless of how much it stands to lose or gain.
With a market this big, there is no end to the opportunities that exist for the small business man or woman. This paper will focus on the opportunities that exist for disadvantaged small entrepreneurial firms who would like to sell to the government and touch on what would be required for such a firm to do so. The thought of having the government as a consumer of these small disadvantaged businesses seems like an awkward situation, but it provides for much of the growth of these small firms, both domestic and foreign.
[See Definition in Appendix for Small/Disadvantaged/Minority Firm]
Department of Defense (DoD) - Brief Information

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
