Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptxKavitha Krishnan
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.
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.

4. Introduction :
The word gratitude is derived from the Latin word
gratia, which means grace, graciousness, or
gratefulness (depending on the context). Gratitude is
a powerful emotion that has been studied extensively
in the fields of psychology and neuroscience. It is the
feeling of appreciation and thankfulness for the good
things in life, both big and small.
5. Rationale of the study
Positive psychology: Gratitude is often studied in the context of positive psychology, which focuses
on promoting positive emotions, character traits, and behaviors. Gratitude is one of the key positive
emotions that can contribute to overall well-being, happiness, and resilience.
Social relationships: Gratitude can also be studied in the context of social relationships, as
expressing gratitude can strengthen social bonds and foster positive interactions between
individuals.
Health: There is evidence that gratitude can have physical health benefits, such as reducing
symptoms of illness and improving sleep quality. As such, studies on gratitude may aim to explore
the relationship between gratitude and health outcomes.
Intervention: Some studies on gratitude may aim to develop and test interventions that promote
gratitude and evaluate their effectiveness in improving well-being, relationships, or health
outcomes.
Overall, studying gratitude can provide insights into how positive emotions and social interactions

3. Theoretical
Model of gratitude
and wellbeing:
8. 1.Positive psychology and study of well being
Positive emotions: Positive psychology emphasizes the importance of positive
emotions such as joy, contentment, and gratitude in promoting well-being.
Character strengths: Positive psychology identifies character strengths such as
courage, kindness, and wisdom, and emphasizes the importance of using these
strengths to promote well-being and achieve personal goals.
Social connections: Positive psychology highlights the importance of social
connections and relationships in promoting well-being and happiness.
Mindfulness and resilience: Positive psychology emphasizes the importance of
mindfulness and resilience in promoting well-being, by helping individuals manage
stress and cope with adversities.
9. 2.Gratitudes and it's Relationship to positive
emotions
First, gratitude can help people focus on the positive aspects of their lives,
rather than dwelling on negative experiences or stressors. By directing
attention towards positive experiences, gratitude can help people experience
more positive emotions.
Second, gratitude can increase feelings of social connection and support,
which in turn can promote positive emotions. When people express gratitude
towards others, it can strengthen relationships and increase feelings of
closeness and connection.
Third, gratitude can promote positive emotions by enhancing feelings of
satisfaction and fulfillment. When people feel grateful for what they have, they
may experience a sense of contentment and happiness, rather than a sense of
longing or desire for more.Positive emotions open us up to more possibilities.
10. 3.Theoretical Model of gratitude and wellbeing:
Gratitude as a disposition: This model suggests that some people have
a natural disposition towards gratitude, meaning they are more likely to
experience gratitude in their daily lives. This disposition is thought to be
influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.
Gratitude as a practice: In addition to being a disposition, gratitude can
also be cultivated through intentional practices such as keeping a
gratitude journal, expressing gratitude to others, and focusing on the
positive aspects of one's life. Regularly engaging in these practices can
increase feelings of gratitude and overall wellbeing.
Gratitude and positive emotions: Gratitude is closely linked to positive
emotions such as joy, contentment, and satisfaction. When individuals
experience gratitude, they are more likely to experience these positive
emotions, which can lead to increased wellbeing.
11. Gratitude and social connections: Expressing gratitude towards
others can improve social connections and strengthen relationships.
Gratitude can also increase prosocial behavior, such as helping others
and being kind, which can further enhance social connections.
Gratitude and physical health: Research suggests that practicing
gratitude can lead to physical health benefits such as better sleep,
lower levels of stress and inflammation, and improved cardiovascular
health. These benefits may be related to the positive emotions and
social connections associated with gratitude.
Overall, the theoretical model of gratitude and wellbeing suggests
that cultivating gratitude can have wide-ranging benefits for
individuals' wellbeing, including positive emotions, improved social
connections, and physical health benefits
