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.

4. Rocca di Castruccio Castracani This powerful fortress was wanted by the Lucchesi after they had conquered the castle in 1302. It was finally completed by Uguccione della Faggiola and then by Castruccio Castracani. Standing as it does right at the farthest part of the village, its profile is characterized by the hexagonal tall tower formed from well shaped blocks of stone, and with its two bastions, it has an ancient cistern for the conservation of water which is visible at the centre of the fortification.

6. Gabella’s Gate The gate opens with a semicircular arch set on the town walls, probably built at the beginning of the 14th Century when it became necessary to link the old walls to the newest ones. From the gate we reach Gabella Vecchia, an old hamlet at the castle's feet, in which ancient houses we can still find some old inscriptions. During the 12th century Serravalle had two gates, Castellina Gate (also known as S.Andrea Gate) in the north of the village, and Nievole Gate in the west side, but today there are no certain traces of them.
