Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

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.

Framework
Priority - Student Support Services (Operation Polaris Working Group- Student Support Services)
Priority - Human Capital (Operation Polaris Working Group- Human Capital)
Goal 1- Eliminate Opportunity Gaps by 2025
Objective 2- Improve school climate measures across all schools and grade levels
Component 1- Increase the number of school-based mental health professionals
Goal 2- Improve School and District Performance by 2025
Objective 1: Allocate financial, business, and technology resources according to State and Federal laws and SBE policies.
Objective 7: Increase number of schools meeting or exceeding growth measure by subgroup
Objective 8: Increase the number of charter schools meeting or exceeding academic, operational, and financial goals
Goal 3- Increase Educator Preparedness to Meet the Needs of Every Student by 2025
Objective 3 - Strengthen relationships between educator preparation programs (EPPs), districts, and schools to foster
collaboration and better teaching practice
Legislative Priorities - • NC needs to be targeted in their recruitment initiatives to bring graduates of preparation programs from other states to
North Carolina to fill the newly-funded positions (SB105 provided one school psychologists for each district). Currently,
NC is not graduating enough School Psychologists to fulfill the needs of our districts.
• Most psychologist programs require 1200-hour internship (which is one full academic year) before they complete their
program.
• These funds would be used as a recruitment tool to bring out-of-state students here, as well as can be used for in-state
students looking for internships. Districts have stated that funding for stipends would create opportunities to recruit
interns there that will be more likely to stay after graduating than if they had not interned there before.
• 115 intern positions x [$35,000 starting teacher salary]
