Presentation1
Julius Caesar played a large role in the demise of the Roman Republic and rise of the Roman Empire through his unmatched military power during the Gallic Wars. He was the last dictator of Rome before it became an empire. He was assassinated in 44 BC by conspirators who feared he would become king.
Feudalism
Feudalism developed in Western Europe following the collapse of the Roman political order. As Roman rule gave way to anarchy in the 5th century, kings had to rely more on local nobles to administer their kingdoms, granting them land in exchange for military service. This led to the decentralization of political power as nobles subdivided their lands among lesser nobles. Though this system led to instability and conflict at first, feudalism provided some defense against raids and invasions in the absence of strong central government. By 1000 AD feudalism had established a degree of stability in Western Europe, setting the stage for renewed civilization in the High Middle Ages.
The enlightenment
This document provides an overview of the Enlightenment period in the 18th century and some of its key thinkers and ideas. It summarizes that the Enlightenment was an age of optimism in humanity's ability to use reason to reform society and advance knowledge. Major figures discussed include Voltaire, Rousseau, and Adam Smith. Voltaire and other philosophes advocated using reason to critique tradition and institutions in order to promote freedom, rights, and social progress. Rousseau emphasized concepts like the social contract and general will. Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations analyzed free market economics. Enlightened despots also sought to implement Enlightenment ideals through legal and economic reforms.
Democracy
Democracy has its origins in ancient Greece, where in the 5th century BC people could meet in the city-states to make laws and vote in assemblies. However, only free men could participate, not women or slaves. During the Middle Ages in Europe, feudal systems developed where nobles offered protection to peasants in exchange for work and military service. Merchants in cities like Venice and Florence participated more in decision making through guilds. The Magna Carta in 1215 established that laws outranked kings in England. The American and French Revolutions in the late 1700s further spread democratic ideals of equal rights and representation. New Zealand became the first country to grant all adults the right to vote in 1893.

Ferdinand VII returned to Spain in 1814 and reestablished absolutism, overriding the constitution and closing courts.

American colonies also gained independence in this time period due to liberal ideas and economic dissatisfaction with Spain's policies.

Genetics Project
This document discusses several genetics concepts including independent assortment, incomplete dominance, co-dominance, multiple alleles, polygenic traits. It defines independent assortment as the random distribution of chromosomes and their alleles to gametes during meiosis, with one gene's alleles being distributed independently of others. It provides examples of incomplete dominance in horses and co-dominance in flowers where two alleles are expressed together rather than one being dominant. It also briefly discusses multiple alleles where there can be more than two allele options for a gene, and polygenic traits controlled by multiple non-allelic genes, using coat color in horses as an example.
Ching's World War II Vocabulary
World War II lasted from 1939 to 1945. The document outlines key events leading up to and during the war, including Hitler's desire for Lebensraum or "living space," the invasion of Poland which started the war, the Hitler-Stalin pact which divided territories between Germany and the USSR, Britain and France's appeasement of Hitler at the Munich Conference, the Axis and Allied powers, Germany's use of Blitzkrieg warfare, and an overview of the major players in the global conflict.
Totalitarianism: Dictatorship
The document discusses characteristics of totalitarian governments and compares different totalitarian ideologies such as fascism, communism, and Nazi Germany. Totalitarian governments are ruled by dictators who make decisions without approval and prioritize the state over individual rights. Communism under Stalin involved collectivization, purges of dissidents, and famines caused by five-year plans. Hitler rose to power after World War I and the burning of the Reichstag, establishing himself as dictator of Nazi Germany through his paramilitary SS group.
Imperialism
Imperialism involved countries extending their power and influence through military or diplomatic means. Colonialism was the practice of acquiring political control over another country, settling it, and exploiting its resources. During the Scramble for Africa from 1880-1900, European powers invaded, occupied, and annexed African territories, dividing the continent among themselves. They justified this through social Darwinism and beliefs of racial and cultural superiority, seeking to civilize the people and impose their rule, which often led to resistance from colonized nations seeking independence and self-determination.
Industrial Revolution
The Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the late 18th century and spread to other countries like Germany and the United States. It was driven by new inventions that enabled factories and mass production, like the steam engine. This led many people to migrate from rural farms to cities to work in the new factories. Textiles were an early industry to boom with inventions like the cotton gin and powered looms. The revolution transformed economies and societies through industrialization and urbanization.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
