This document provides examples of propositional and predicate logic. It introduces basic logical concepts like propositions, truth values, connectives like "if...then" and "and", and quantifiers like "all" and "some". Propositional logic examples use letters like p and q to represent simple statements without internal structure. Predicate logic examples assign predicates like "loves" and "crazy" to arguments to represent statements with meaning, like "Loves(John, Mary)". The document explains how to represent quantified statements using predicates, arguments, and quantifiers.

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.
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.

• If I get up early, I will be able to go to the zoo
• If you put the air conditoner on, it will get

8. If X -> Y
• If you study hard, then you will pass the test
• X = Bob is a student
• Y = Mary bought the book
• If Bob is a student, Mary bought the book
• ????
• There doesn’t have to be a logical connection
• You can say anything
9. If X & Y, then Z
• If you buy me the ticket and I have free time, I
will go to the theater with you
• If we win and they lose, I will laugh at them
• If a bear comes in the classroom and I have a
gun, I will shoot it
• If I get the job and the job is well-paid, I will be
happy
• If you drink the beer and you drink the whisky,
you will feel bad
10. If X & Y Z
• If you buy me the ticket and I have free time, I
will go to the theater with you
• If we win and they lose, I will laugh at them
• If a bear comes in the classroom and I have a
gun, I will shoot it
• If I get the job and the job is well-paid, I will be
happy
• If you drink the beer and you drink the whisky,
you will feel bad
11. If X & Y Z

• If Pochi is a dog and you finished your
homework, then sushi is delicious.
• X = Pochi is a dog
• Y = you finished your homework
• Z = sushi is delicious
• ?????
13. Why do this?
• Seems completely pointless
• Maybe it is!
14. Propositional Logic
• Crazy name
• Crazy idea
• It’s actually very simple
• So don’t worry about it
• Just going to have a quick tour
22. So there’s a problem for Semantics
• We don’t know where meaning comes from
• And meaning in words is incredibly
complicated
• So just thinking about words, we get lost
29. • And sometimes sentences are very long, and
keep going on and on without giving very
much useful information and you start to lose
interest and ……
35. I saw a brown bear
• Who is “I”?
• Let’s say “I” is an individual called Jim
• What does the meaning of “Jim” look like in
your mind?
• What does “see” look like in your mind?
• etc
38. So how do we begin to understand?
• First step
• Simplify
• Simplify a lot
• So it sometimes seems stupid
• And very very very very
• Very
• Boring
50. • p = T
• p = F
• That is also OK
• It’s not really important
51. • The important thing is …
• … talking about TRUTH values.
• It’s a theory about true and false.
• Any problem with that?
• No?
• OK.
• Prepare to be bored!
52. Propositional logic: no structure at all
• p = a grizzly is a bear
• q = a bear is a mammal
• r = a grizzly is a mammal
• If p is true
• And q is true
• Then r is true
• p & q r
53. Sentences have NO structure!
• p = some sentence or other
• q = some other sentence or other
• r = some other, different, sentence or other
• And so on
• Notice they’re supposed to be lower-case
letters
54. • Let’s look at an example of this
• A very simple example
55. • p (some sentence)
• r (some sentence)
• (if … then connective)
• p r
• What does this mean?
• If p is true, then r is also true
56. • If you are human, then you are a mammal
• If … then connective
57. • p r
• p = you are human
• r = you are a mammal
• If p is true
• Then r is also true
58. • p & q r
• p = you are Japanese
• q = You go to university
• r = you can write Kanji
• That’s a commonsense example
• But it doesn’t HAVE to be commonsense
60. • p & q r
• If p is true and q is true, then r is true
• p = a salmon is a fish
• q = a fish is human
• r = a salmon is human
• p is true
• q is false
• r is false
61. • p & q r
• What does this mean?
• Three sentences p, q, r
• It means …
• If p and q are both true,
• Then r is also true
62. Propositions
• A fish is human
• My teachers are turtles
• John’s friend is flying
• Her camera is transparent
• The Little Prince is standing
63. Propositions
• Try to keep it simple
• Passives are treated as the same as the active
form
• John kicked the ball = the ball was kicked by
John
64. Propositions
• John hit Ben
• Ben was hit by John
• Same proposition
• call it p
• or q
• or r
• etc
126. • Set A = the set of Linguists
• Linguist (x)
• Set B = the set of crazy people
• Crazy_person (x)
127. Who is in these sets?
• Linguist (x)
• {evans,
• imai,
• ono}
128. Who is in the set of crazy people?
• Crazy_person (x)
• {ken,
• jim,
• ben,
• mary,
• evans}
129. All linguists are crazy
• ∀x (Linguist (x) Crazy_person (x))
• Is this true?
130. • Set A = the set of Linguists
• Linguist (x)
• Set B = the set of crazy people
• Crazy_person (x)
131. Who is in these sets?
• Linguist (x)
• {evans,
• imai,
• ono}
132. Who is in the set of crazy people?
• Crazy_person (x)
• {ken,
• jim,
• ben,
• mary,
• evans}
133. All linguists are crazy
• ∀x (Linguist (x) Crazy_person (x))
• Is Untrue
• Because two members of the set of linguists
are not in the set of crazy people.
135. Some linguists are crazy
• ∃x (Linguist (x) & Crazy_person (x))
• Backward E
• Existential Quantifier
• There is at least one individual x
• x is a linguist
• And x is crazy
136. Who is in the set of crazy people?
• Crazy_person (x)
• {ken,
• jim,
• ben,
• mary,
• evans}
137. Evans is in the set of crazy people
• So this is true
• ∃x (Linguist (x) & Crazy_person (x))
• Backward E
• Existential Quantifier
• There is at least one individual x
• x is a linguist
• And x is crazy
155. • We sometimes say things that are not true
• “My brain exploded”
• And do we really think in Logical Form?
• ¬∃x (Girl (x) & Lives_in_fujiyoshida (x))
156. • And if I say “A girl lives in Fujiyoshida” …
• … is it really a statement about existence of an
individual?
• Or am I more concerned with number
• Or the fact that we’re talking about a girl
rather than a boy?
• Or a girl rather than a woman?
• Or something else related to CONTEXT?
162. But Logic is VERY important in
Linguistics!
• The nurse kissed every child on his birthday.
• [The nurse] kissed [every child] on his birthday.
• Kissed (nurse, every_child)
163. • ∀x (Child (x) Kissed (nurse, x)) on x’s
birthday
• The nurse kissed every child on his birthday
165. • What do you think?
• Do these words really MOVE in the grammar?
• Just because our theory of logical meaning
takes that form?
• Or is it completely wrong?
• If it is completely wrong …
• … maybe you can think of something better.
166. • In what ways is Predicate Logic superior to
Propositional Logic?
• It deals with internal structure
• Which part of a sentence does the Predicate
correspond to most closely?
• The verb
167. • Give an example of a two-place predicate.
• Eats
• Eats (john, fish)
• Give an example of a three-place predicate.
• Gives
• Gives (john, mary, the banana)
168. • How could you represent “Every Linguist is
crazy” in Predicate Logic?
• ∀x (Linguist (x) Crazy_person (x))
•
169. • How could you represent “A boy sent Mary
$300” in Predicate Logic?
• ∃x (Boy (x) & Sent (x, mary, $300))
170. • What does an Upside-down A mean?
• Every, All
• What does a backward E mean?
• There is
• Existence
171. • What does an upside-down A say about two
sets?
• One is contained in the other
172. • What does a backward E say about two sets?
• One intersects with the other
173. • Do you think this kind of code REALLY plays a
part in our thinking?
• Yes
• No
• We think in pictures
• We think in action-images
• Or whatever you believe
