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.
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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2. Exposition: (page 31)
What can you tell from the following:
Martin is a twelve-year old boy who is “uncomfortable in elevators”.
(line 4)
He fears that they might fall.
“bullied at school” (line 25) and “always picked last” (lines 25-26) He is not very popular with
his classmates.
“get used to it” (line 24) He will try to deal with his fear of elevators.
3. State 2 external conflicts in the exposition:
1. Martin vs. his dad
2. Martin vs. the bullies at school
3. Martin vs. the elevator
4. What is the main conflict?
The main conflict will probably involve the elevator. He has a “fear of being
trapped” in the elevator (lines 34-35), and he dislikes being “too close to any
other rider” (line 36). The story’s conflict will probably involve Matrin confronting
his fear.
5. Rising action: (lines 41-174)
A large woman gets on the elevator at the fourteenth floor and stares
at Martin after the doors close (lines 41-49). This event forces Martin
to confront his worst fears and sets the rising action in motion.
State 1 internal conflict in the rising action:
Martin’s decision to either take the elevator or not.
6. One of the literary devices/techniques is
foreshadowing which means:
Foreshadowing is a hint of what is to come later in the story. It often
appears at the beginning of a story, or a chapter, and helps the reader
develop expectations about the coming events in a story.
8. One of the literary devices/techniques is
suspense which means:
The intense feeling that an audience goes through while waiting for the
outcome of certain events. It basically leaves the reader holding their
breath and wanting more information. The amount of intensity in a
suspenseful moment is why it is hard to put a book down.
9. Which lines in the story helped build
suspense?
• “blue eyes already fixed on him as though she knew he’d be there
(line 89)
• “it was like a nightmare” (line 90)
• “The elevator trembled” (line 94)
• “The fat lady watched him” (line 95)
• “What was she doing? Had she been waiting for him? Was she riding
with him on purpose?” (lines 98-99)
• “What is if got stuck between floors? What if it fell?” (line 105)
Etc.
10. Climax: (line 175)
Martin is in danger.
How did we figure this out?
• The lady gets on the elevator at the tenth floor (line 172) as if she knew
that Martin would be alone on the elevator at that moment.
• She “]moves[ in quickly” (line 173), as if wanting to take advantage of
his vulnerability on the crutches.
• The phrase “the door sealed them in” (line 174) suggests that he is trapped.
• She knows his name, she laughs, and she pushes the stop button (line 175).
11. Falling action and resolution:
The story had an open ending so that we can come up with our own
resolution to the conflict.
12. Protagonist:
A protagonist is the central character or leading figure in poetry,
narrative novel or any other story. A protagonist is something called a
“hero” by the audience or readers. The word originally came from
Greek language which refers to the person who led the chorus.
The protagonist in our story is:
Martin
13. Antagonist:
In literature, an antagonist is a character, group of characters, or other force
that presents an obstacle or is in direct conflict with the protagonist. The
antagonist is most often one character who has a goal that opposes the
protagonist’s goal and will try to stop the protagonist from getting what he
or she wants.
The word “antagonist” comes from the Greek for “a competitor, rival, or
opponent.
The antagonist in our story is:
The fat lady
14. Difference Between Antagonist and Villain
The definition of antagonist states that this
character or characters works in opposition to
the protagonist. This does not mean, however,
that the antagonist is necessarily a villain or that
the antagonist’s motives are inherently evil.
