The document discusses events that occurred on April 19, 1775 in Lexington, Massachusetts between British soldiers and American militiamen. 34 Lexington men provided sworn testimony that around 5 AM, as they gathered on Lexington Green in response to the drum, British troops approached and without provocation opened fire on the militia, instantly killing and wounding several men before they continued firing as the militia escaped. A British army lieutenant's diary entry recounts arriving in Lexington around 5 AM and seeing 200-300 armed men gathered, where without orders British men rushed in and fired upon them after 1-2 shots were fired, killing several and chasing the rest into the woods, before continuing their march to Concord.

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.

20. We NATHANIEL MULLIKEN, PHILIP RUSSELL, (followed by the names of
thirty-two other men present on Lexington Green on April 19, 1775)...all
of lawful age, and inhabitants of Lexington, in the County of Middlesex, …
do testify and declare, that on the nineteenth of April instant, about one
or two o’clock in the morning, being informed that...a body of regulars
were marching from Boston towards Concord, ...we were alarmed and
having met at the place of our company’s parade (Lexington Green), were
dismissed by our Captain, John Parker, for the present, with orders to be
ready to attend at the beat of the drum, we further testify and declare,
that about five o’clock in the morning, hearing our drum beat, we
proceeded towards the parade, and soon found that a large body of troops
were marching towards us, some of our company were coming up to the
parade, and others had reached it, at which time the company began to
disperse, whilst our backs were turned on the troops, we were fired on by
them, and a number of our men were instantly killed and wounded, not a
gun was fired by any person in our company on the regulars to our
knowledge before they fired on us, and they continued firing until we had
made all our escape.
Lexington, April 25th, 1775. Nathaniel Mulliken, Philip Russell, (and the
other 32 men), duly sworn to by 34 minutemen on April 25th before three
justices of the peace
21. 19th. At 2 o’clock we began our march by wading through a very
long ford up to our middles; after going a few miles we took three
or four people who were going off to give intelligence; about five
miles on this side of a town called Lexington, which lay in our road,
we heard there were some hundreds of people collected together
intending to oppose us and stop our going on; at 5 o’clock we
arrived there, and saw a number of people, I believe between 200
and 300, formed in a common in the middle of the town; we still
continued advancing, keeping prepared against an attack though
without intending to attack them; but on our coming near them
they fired one or two shots, upon which our men without any
orders, rushed in upon them, fired and put them to flight; several
of them were killed, we could not tell how many, because they
were got behind walls and into the woods; We had a man of the
10th light Infantry wounded, nobody else hurt. We then formed on
the Common, but with some difficulty, the men were so wild they
could hear no orders; we waited a considerable time there, and at
length proceeded on our way to Concord.
