The Barbours – Pioneers of Squamish and Pembertonpemberton museum
This week’s Tale was presented by Eric Andersen a local historian from Squamish and featured his research on the Barbour family of Squamish & Pemberton. Charles and his brother Allan started the first large scale logging company in Squamish. Charles and his wife Dora lived in Pemberton from the early 1900’s to the 1940s. Charles wrote a letter to the Daily Province in Vancouver lamenting the lack of connection between Pemberton and the Coast in 1901 and estimated a loss of over $1,000,000 in potential agricultural products that could be produced in the rich farm lands. His wife Dora started Pemberton’s first milk run in 1906. She made a sack to be fastened over a horses back, with compartments on each side to hold glass milk bottles so that milk could be delivered to One Mile or Pemberton Station. Dora was also a member of the Women’s Auxiliary of the Church of England during her time in Pemberton. The Gimse family lived in the Barbour house in the 1940’s. Bert and Kathleen Lundgren bought the farm in the 1940’s and lived in the old house until a new one was built by Bert in the 1950’s. Kia-ora Mobile Home Park is now located on a portion of the old Barbour farm lands.

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.
