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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

An Exploratory study was deemed fit for the
Phase I of the study and the same was
maintained for the Phase II of the study
Case Studies were used in Phase II of the study
to as an alternative research strategy to
experiment, history or simulation
Exploratory case studies were depended upon for
the research questions in the study. These were
best addressed by case studies as an approach
since these addressed explaination rather than
incidence questions.
For examples these case studies were not about
enumeration but about how the entrepreneurs did
such and such a thing.
9. Phase I & II
Data collected for the study during Aug 2007 &
June 2008
Phase I: This phase of the study elicited
information about the entrepreneurs based on the
Ministry of National Economy (MONE)
classification of below 5000 OMR (Omani Riyal)
three star companies.
Phase II : Exploratory case studies that gave a
thick description of how the entrepreneurs did
such and such a thing

11. Area Profile
The GCC or the Gulf Co-operation Council
countries consists of
Oman
Qatar
Saudi Arabia
United Arab Emirates
Bahrain
Kuwait
Libya (Ex-member – Voluntarily withdrew due to political
reasons)
Iraq (Ex-Member after the attack on Kuwait)
12. Area Profile
The GCC countries have similar characteristics
as opposed to a little more divergent culture in
the Middle-East and because of this reason the
geographical scope of the study had to be limited
to the GCC countries and further focused on
Oman
13. Common Characteristics of the Gulf
Countries
Hereditary Monarchical regimes
Vast Resources of Oil
Foreign nationals are not permitted to own any
business or immovable property
They are required to make a local citizen or entity
a majority even if sleeping partner in their
enterprises
This has facilitated that the wealth generated has
been very profitably invested in the development
of world-class infrastructure
Entire region is sparsely populated
Skills shortage for all levels of workers
14. NRI s in Oman
Data of the Ministry of Labour & Social Affairs (Govt.
Of Oman) Table 1.2
&
The Data collected by the Ministry of External Affairs
(Govt of India) though the embassy point to figure of 3
million NRIs in 99-2000
Socio-Economic profile now changing to more white
collar workers moving in to the region
People to people contact as early as 15th century –
Indo-Oman
That time –essentially traders and financiers from the
Kutch – Still these people control the financial
dealings in the capital
Oldest Indian Family has been here for at least eight
generations
15. Sample Design
150 Sample entrepreneurs
Population size as per 2005 data available in
2007 was 404
The sample size covered more than 35% of the
universe and was more than sufficient to validate
the results
A proportionate random sample was applied to
the four main classifications of the Ministry of
National Economy
For the Phase II of the study a total of 21
entrepreneurs were selected (14% each from the
three levels of competencies)

20. The Omani Context
The Ministry of National Economy put the
statistics of the expatriates at 24% of the
population. This has been maintained steadily by
the policy makers.
The substantial contribution of this expatriates
population are from the Asian community
Members of the Asian community specifically the
Malayalis have been dominant in the chosen
focus area of the study of below 5000 OMR
21. Economic Development & Skills
Shortage
The Socio-political circumstances combined with
lack of education facilities Led to import of labor in the 1970s
Continuous efforts of the Gov. to reduce
dependence on the Oil reserves and there has
been privatization & Omanisation
Entrepreneurship could be a career option for
skilled immigrants
22. Entrepreneurship and
Entrepreneurial Competenices
Summary of the review of literature on
Entrepreneur Vague definitions
Few studies that employed the same definitions
Lack of basic agreement on “who an entrepreneur
is?” & lack of homogenous samples in the selection
A startling number of traits & characteristic that
either make a larger than life image or a generic
“Everyman”
23. Entrepreneurship better suited
From Entrepreneur to Entrepreneurship
Behavioral & Traits approach
Entrepreneurship as the creation of organisation
25. Competence in Simple terms
Describes what people need to be able to do or
need to be capable of doing or have, to do a job
well to achieve results
This includes what has to be done and to what
standard
Competencies identified through various
techniques
Focus groups, panel & subject groups experts
Critical behavior event interviews with superior
performers
Use of Generic Competency terminologies and
definitions (Employed for the study)
Clustering of Competencies, common in
26. The Three Levels of Competence
Level of Competence defined by the 23 statements
administered to the entrepreneurs
Simple Arithmetic Mean & Standard Deviation calculated
for these scores level competencies
X+S.D. (= 75.57 + 16.12) 91.69 – 92 and above –
High level
X – S.D. (= 75.51 – 16.12) = 59.45 - 59 and above –
Low level.
(X- S.D.) to (X + S.D.) = 59 to 92 – Medium level.

28. Relationship between personal
background factors & Competence
Age & Literacy Level- exists relationship
Marital Status – no relationship
Caste Community – no relationship
Experience- exists relationship
Type of family- No relationship
Technical knowledge- there exists relationship
No relationship between type of enterprise &
competence
29. The Competencies dimensions
revealed
23 statements
Rotated factor Matrix
The principal factors with orthogonal varimax
rotation has been used to extract the factors
31. Broader Findings
The study of competency, a HR area can be fully
adapted to the multi-disciplinary research in
entrepreneurship
No unique models available to represent the
phenomenon of entrepreneurship in countries
where there are 100% ownership not possible
Element of insecurity has been good to better
behavior
Same member of the community contribute more
in a host country
Hygiene factors of Herzberg in action in the new
environment
32. Broader Findings
Employment has been important for venture start
up
Age a deciding factor in the venture initiation
Network & peer support plays a key role
Considerable variation among entrepreneurs in
the same industry
No specific personal background factor that
would lead to better competence
This proves the theory that competencies are
independent of personal attributes and
competencies are trainable
This area of study requires unique competencies
33. Recommendations based on the
findings
For policy makers
Need to promote employment in a foreign environment
Identify liaison office
Enumerate NRI entrepreneurs
List the associations
For researchers & trainers
Provide BOG & information about the environment
Focus on competencies so that major learning can be
replicated in newer environments
BOG Guidance for everybody
Educate the NRI entrepreneurs
Not just sociological dimension but all dimension of the
Diaspora
34. Recommendations based on the
findings
Learning for the potential and existing
entrepreneurs
Focus on the networking competencies
Explore Chambers of Commerce – Embassy Links
Enlist Active associations with the Ministry of
Overseas India Affairs
Ensure continuity for family environment by
supporting initiatives of representation for higher
education institution in the host country
