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.

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

4. Scenario
Online educational resource
Your organisation has asked you to produce an online educational resource for media learners.
The resource will be used as an introduction to media analysis by focusing on a media company
and its products. You will need to look at a company which produces films and research their
structure and products.
The unique selling point (USP) of this online educational resource is that it is produced by learners
for learners as an introduction to the media world, its ownership, organisation, production
processes and products. The online educational resource will also focus on:
• media audiences;
• distribution/advertising;
• the media effects debate;
• representation;
• legal and ethical issues;
• the role of the regulatory bodies who oversee the industry.
This resource will be used to support the studies of learners undertaking a media studies course.
The information presented needs to reflect the underlying issues and be suitable for the target
audience.
You will be required to design a homepage and related webpages, containing:
• text and images/graphics – for example a logo, banner/header, text links to other pages,
advertisements, photographs of learners/tutors in lessons, etc;
• rich media – for example an audio-visual introduction to the website, interviews with
learners/tutors, animation, etc.
The webpages should contain the online education resource information you will be providing to
media learners. The related webpages should follow the same house style and design layout as
the homepage.
The homepage and related pages may be presented online or offline.
Ringwood Specific Brief:
• You will be making a ‘wix’ to display your ‘online educational resource for
media learners’.
• We will be studying Disney and The Force Awakens (2015) as our ‘media
company and its products’.
• All your work will go on your wix website, a link will then be put onto your
media blog under the title ‘Unit 1: Analysing Media Products and
Audiences’

5. Tasks
Introduction to the tasks
Your company has been asked to produce an educational resource for media learners. This guide
will be used as a teaching resource for learners new to the media industry. The section of the
educational resource you will need to produce is related to the film industry.
This will be the first of a range of educational resources the company wants to produce, so you will
need to design a homepage and related webpages containing:
• text and images/graphics – for example a logo, banner/header, text links to other pages,
advertisements, photographs of learners/tutors in lessons, etc;
• rich media – for example an audio-visual introduction to the website, interviews with
learners/tutors, animation, etc.
The company is keen that the related webpages should follow the same housestyle and design
layout as the homepage, so that this format can be utilised for further resources.
The homepage and related pages may be presented online or offline.
6. TASKS
LO1 (P1): Understand media products and the institutions that create them
TASK 1: CASE STUDY OF DISNEY STUDIOS

file (suggested Canva, prezi or emaze) about Disney Studios that covers each of
the following:
• OWNERSHIP
• OPERATING MODEL
• PRODUCTS
• MARKETING POSITION
• COMPETITORS
• Evidence of learning does not mean you can simply print off pages from
the internet or plagiarise copy. Your case study document should be
created yourself by reading, researching and digesting all of the
information available and transforming that knowledge into a form that
shows your understanding.
LO1 (P2, M1, D1): Understand media products and the institutions that create them
TASK 2: Analytical film review of The Force Awakens
• Using your notes from class and the correct media language, analyse The Force
Awakens Trailer in as much detail as you can using examples and screen grabs
from the trailer.
• Please use the numbered points as headings/section dividers.

‘production process’ will be covered in task 4 alongside distribution and advertising
LO2 (P3, M2, D2): Understand the relationship between media products and their
target audience
Task 3: Audience Profiling Research
Part A (P3):
Using the BFI statistical yearbook (look specifically at the 2015 ones related to our film),
your theory notes and your own research, create a report/infographic/audience profile that
explains who the audience is for Force Awakens.
• You should create stereotypical avatars (online, hand-drawn, photograph) for both
male and female audiences.
• Annotate your avatars in terms of gender, age, life style, and spending power
• Include theory: NRS scale, 4C’s scale, Uses & Gratifications Theory, Cultivation
theory and Morley
Part B (M2):
6
7. Now that you know who your target audience is, conduct a survey or focus group to find
out more about the relationship of the chosen audience and our case study film.
Your questions should find out more about age, class, life style and spending power of
your audience.
Then analyse your findings as a results report.
Part C (D2):
As part of your results report, to achieve a distinction you need to explain:
• What aspects of the film would appeal to the target audience?
• Which aspects of the trailer would influence the target audience to view the film
You should give examples of scenes/parts of the trailer in your answer. You could also
break this in sections gender, age, lifestyle and spending power.
LO3 (P4): Understand how media products are distributed and promoted (plus
production process from LO1:P2)
TASK 4: Timeline of the Production Process for Force Awakens, including
Distribution and Advertising
1. You need to investigate the three phases of Production (Pre production, Production
and Post production) and create a timeline for Force Awakens, from Disney's
acquisition of Lucasfilm in October 2012 - Present day.
2. You should also have a timeline for distribution and advertising
• Your final timeline can be made on any format you wish. It will not be a single line,
we are expecting separate ‘branches’ with additional info.
• Suggested tools canva timeline/infogram or prezi
LO4 (P5, M3): Understand ethical, legal, and regulatory issues associated with
media products
TASK 5: Legal & Ethical, Impact and Representation Report
This is to explore how media products are created within a legal and ethical framework of
the society in which they are constructed. Producers and institutions have to be very
aware of the possible positive and negative effects that their products may have upon
individuals and communities.
• For this task you must investigate and research the legal, ethical and regulatory
restrictions within which your chosen film was made.
• Your investigation will illustrate your understanding of how these legal and
ethical requirements have an impact upon the producers, the product and
subsequently how the product may affect its audiences.
• Your discussion must be placed within the context of UK law and relevant
regulatory bodies associated with your chosen media product.
• Produce a report answering the above
