This document discusses the evolution of human societies from hunting and gathering to post-industrial societies. It outlines that as technology advanced, societies changed as well. Hunting and gathering societies used simple tools and depended on families, while agricultural societies engaged in large-scale farming using animals and tools. Industrial societies used machinery powered by water, steam, and factories. Post-industrial societies focus on information, services, and technology with less manual labor. Early civilizations like Sumer developed advanced cities, institutions, governments, religions, social classes, and writing systems. Political leaders established laws, justice systems, and tax collection.
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. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.

American Sociologist argued
that human society
undergoes transformation
and evolution and in the
process develops
technological advancement.
“the more technology a
society has, the faster it
changes”

although women and men
perform different tasks,
most hunters and

sexes as having about the
same social importance

animals.
• Animal domestication provided important
contributions to the Neolithic people.
• The development of agriculture also led to
an increase in social inequality

the postindustrial society is at
the heart of globalization

ensuring justice, and protecting
the environment are problems
that technology alone cannot
solve
Post-IndustrialSocieties
14. Characteristics:
• Transfer of labor workforce from
manufacturing to service
• A significant increase in the number of
professional and technical employment
and a decline in the number of skilled and
semiskilled workers
• Education as the basis of social mobility
• Human capital
15. • Application of “intellectual technology”
• Focus on communication infrastructure
• Knowledge as source of invention and
innovation
18. • Developed and highly advanced cities
• Well-defined city centers
• Complex and systematic institutions
• Organized and centralized system of
government
• Formalized and complex form of religion
• Job specialization
• Development of Social classes
• Advance technology
• System of writing and recording
