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.
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

3. Author’s Biography
❄ Francis Scott Fitzgerald was an eminent author
of the early 20th century.
❄ He was born in Minnesota in 1896.
❄ Fitzgerald was a bright and talented child,
demonstrating a strong interest in literature from
a young age.

novelist and short story writer.
4. ❄ His first important book was titled ‘The Slide Of
Paradise’ and was an autobiographical story
exploring the concept of love and greed.
❄ The audience saw him as a Master Chronicler
of the Jazz Age, who had managed to grasp
the spirit of the time.
❄ He died in 1940.
❄ Despite his short life, Fitzgerald greatly
contributed to classical literature on a global
level.
5. “The Roaring Twenties” was also known as the Jazz
Age. The Jazz Age was the term coined by F.Scott
Fitzgerald in his collection of short stories Tales of the
Jazz Age (1922), and was a characteristics feature of
the 1920s when jazz music and dancing achieved
immense popularity in the US and also influenced other
parts of the world.
What is The Jazz Age
6. The Roaring Twenties are associated with the increasing
popularity of materialistic views, to which Fitzgerald objected
in many of his works.
The Jazz Age received its name partly because of numerous
parties, which were held by wealthy people and where the
music was played loudly. This encourage the stylistic core of
Fitzgerald’s most famous work, creating its unparalleled
atmosphere.
7. The Lost Generation
❄ The Lost Generation refers to the generation of
writers, artists, musicians, and intellectuals that came
of age during the First World War and the “Roaring
Twenties.”
❄ The unprecedented carnage and destruction of the
war stripped this generation of their illusions about
democracy, peace, and prosperity, and many
expressed doubt and cynicism in their artistic
endeavors

❄ Gertrude Stein
❄ T.S.Eliot

9. A Culture of Change
African – American culture Jazz music exploded as popular
entertainment in the 1920s and brought African-American
culture to the white middle class.
The Jazz Age was a post-World War I movement in the 1920s
from which jazz music and dance emerged. Although the era
ended with the outset of the Great Depression in 1929, jazz has
lived on in American popular culture.
10. The Flappers
❄ Flapper: A young woman whose unconventional
clothing and progressive attitude personified the
free spirit of the Roaring Twenties and the Jazz
Age.
❄ women noted for their flamboyant style of dress,
progressive attitudes, and modernized morals—
began to captivate society during the Jazz Age.
❄ Although the Jazz Age ended as the Great
Depression struck and victimized America
throughout the 1930s.
11. The portrayal of the Jazz Age in The Great Gatsby
❄ Fitzgerald’s most prominent novel tells the
story of wealth and love amid the shifting
values of the Jazz Age.
❄ The Jazz Age may serve as a suitable
background for different plots, but Fitzgerald
expands its importance to more than just the
setting. The Great Gatsby is not merely a story
about wealth and love.It comments on the very
concept of the American Dream.
12. Santa Claus
❄ However, another side of the American Dream
suggests that success and prosperity are to be
attained through hard work and dedication.
❄ In the case of the Jazz, in general, and The Great
Gatsby, in particular, it is often shown that wealth may
undeservingly come from pure luck or even illegal
criminal activity. It is depicted in contrast with the
American Dream of the wealthy, who were
accustomed to having anything they desired.
13. ❄ Jay Gatsby was a reach person who could
afford many pleasures in life.Having obtained
high status and wealth, Gatsby desired to be
together with Daisy Buchanan, and he was not
ready to fail in the face of potential
difficulties.Normally, society’s moral values
would be a significant barrier in this regard, but
Fitzgerald shows their decreasing role in the
Jazz Age.
