The document discusses the environment and materials used for a presentation pitch. It was presented in a classroom using a Prezi on a smartboard. A video was recorded using a DSLR camera on a tripod for high quality. Feedback was received from surveys and teachers to help improve strengths and weaknesses. PowerPoint was used to create presentation content which was then uploaded to Prezi. Research was also done online. Feedback highlighted needing to learn the script and adding more details. Improvements were made such as moving images based on the feedback.
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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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
Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Unit 8 - Information and Communication Technology (Paper I).pdfThiyagu K
This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
2. Environment of Presentation
I have taken several images of the environment in which I
conducted my pitch. I presented my pitch in a classroom,
my Prezi was on the smartboard and I used the keyboard to
change slides, I also had a computer in front of me, this
allowed me to see what slide was up without looking
behind me. I recorded the video using a Nikon DSLR and a
tripod, this meant the video was of a good quality and was
not shaky, as the tripod is much more stable than a human
hand.
3. Evidence of Presentation
My pitch was recorded, this was important as it means that I can
watch it back and take into account the strengths and
Weaknesses I had, which I can then improve on, As well as using
the feedback I received from the audience in the survey and the
feedback from my teachers which I received on the witness
statement. All the feedback is useful as it will give me views from
different people who will all look at my pitch in a slightly
different way, meaning I can get as much feedback as possible
which I can then improve from to make future pitches much
better.
4. Materials used
• I used PowerPoint to create the content for
my presentation, then I uploaded it to Prezi as
PowerPoint is quite a boring way to present,
whereas Prezi is much more visually
entertaining, therefore the audience would
enjoy the presentation more.
• I also used the internet, this was so I could
research things such as the printing costs,
which would be difficult to find out otherwise.
5.
6. Feedback of Pitch
This is my witness statement, highlighted in green is the elements I did well, and in yellow is
what I need to improve, there is also a list of what I did well and, what I need to do to improve
it, this gives me exact steps on what I need to do in order to improve my work. The positives
were that my magazine was created to a professional level, I communicated expected areas in
some detail and all my pre-production materials were fit for purpose, as well as many aspects
being creative. The things I needed to improve was minor issues with the front cover and DPS,
also I need to add more detail to my production plan
7. Feedback of pitch – Survey Monkey
• Survey monkey is a website which you can
sign up to for free. It allows you to create
surveys filled with different questions, such as
multiple choice or with boxes allowing the
person to write anything they want.
• I used survey monkey to collect results about
my magazines and pitch presentation.
8. Survey Monkey Results
• My first question was “what do you think I can do to
improve my pitch?” the majority of respondents said
that I needed to learn my script off by heart, I agreed
with this as because I did not know my script off by
heart it meant I could not look at the audience, instead
I had to look at my script, this made me look less
confident.
• My second question was “did my magazine look
professional?” out of all the people asked 100% said
yes, this is good as it means my magazine was to the
standard that it needed to be.
• I then asked what I could do to improve my magazine.
Most responses were telling me that I needed to add
more details, and more cover lines in order to fill some
dead space that I had.
9. Survey Monkey results
I had a higher number of
people saying I did not
cover everything on the
mark scheme, however it
was only a small margin
more than people who said
I did. This shows that
although missed some
things out it wasn’t very
much, as a number of
people didn’t notice.
Everyone I asked said that
the audience I targeted was
the correct one, this is very
good feedback as it means
that I don’t need to change
who my target audience is.
Most people said I had
enough detail in my
proposals however some
people said I didn’t, this
means that I may need to
add some more detail but
not a major amount,
because the majority were
happy with the detail.
10. Pitch Improvements
One improvement I made from the feedback I
was received, was I moved the main image,
this was because the top cover line was
overlapping his face, so I moved the main
image left, and upwards, this meant his face
was not obstructed, which is important as he
is the main attraction of the cover, so if his
face was covered it could lead to significantly
less sales.
Another improvement that I made was
adding an analysis to my mood board, as
previously it only had pictures without
explanation to what they were, or why I
chose them and how they related to my
magazine.
11. Pitch Improvements continued
Another improvement I made, was adding a
spending power slide which I did not
previously have. This is an important slide as
it explains who my audience is, the spending
power they have and this helps justify why
my magazine is priced how it is.
A fourth improvement I made was
to my production plan, I needed to
add more detail as previously it was
not in much depth, I added more
explanation to each day, and
possible issues or limitations.
12. Spending Power
• The genre of my magazine is rap and hip-hop, because of
this my audience will be mid to low on the socio-economic
scale as higher classes do not listen to this genre so will not
buy my magazine.
• Low classes are less likely to buy magazines as it is not an
essential, so they would save their money to buy things
they need because they don’t have much.
• This would mean that my target audience would be mainly
mid class people, around C1 and C2 as these would like the
genre and be able to afford magazines
• Therefore my audience would have quite a high spending
power allowing me to price my magazine at £2.99

17. Legal and Ethical issues
Reporting of Crime
This relates to my magazine as often In hip-hop and rap artists are involved in crime or are
sent to prison, so I would need to be careful when discussing theses issues.
Financial Journalism
This relates to my magazine because in the music industry money is a big topic, especially in
rap, where most artists boast what they make. So in my magazine its important I am careful
when covering financial information.
Harassment
This relates to my magazine as I will be covering a lot of stories about artists and
interviewing some too, so when I have journalists asking them questions I need to ensure
they are not harassing the artist.
Payment to criminals
This relates to my magazine as I need to ensure that I don’t pay for any stories that exploit a
crime or glamorise any crimes, this is important to keep in mind as many stories that could
be seen as something to cover as an exclusive and attract new customers, could go against
this code of practice.
19. Data Protection Act
• The data protection act dictates how
businesses are able to use data acquired from
elsewhere. This is important for my magazine
as it means I have to make sure I only hold on
for data as long as I need it and don’t use it for
any other purposes than for what I stated
otherwise I could face a fine.

20. Intellectual Property
The intellectual property law protects and
enforces laws to defend against infringement of
personal information,

21. Risk Assessment
• One risk I had to consider was permissions, I had to make
sure that I got the permission from any people that I took
photos of which I was going to publish in my magazine. I
only used one person so I only had to create one form
and send it to that person (Shown in picture on right).
This was so if their was any legal issues regarding the
photos it would not e down to the magazine, as the
person has given authorisation. The artist was required to
sign showing that it was them who gave consent, as well
as writing down the date, showing that they are giving
consent for this photo-shoot specifically, and it is not an
old consent form for pictures taken in the past which has
been reused.
• A second risk I needed to think about was area
assessment. This meant that I had to have checks to
ensure that the location of the photo-shoot was safe, and
no harm would be done to either the artist or employees
conducting the photo-shoot. My location was a school
hallway, this was good as it meant there was not many
possible risks that had to be looked at, and the location
was deemed safe.
22. Risk Assessment
• Another risk I had to consider was accidentally stretching the photo, it was
important I did not do this as it would make the artist in the picture look
different, and also it would look unprofessional as the picture would be
distorted. The way I avoided this problem was by holding shift when
resizing any image. By holding shift it ensures the dimensions of the image
are kept the same so the image looks the same no matter what size. I also
had to consider how I would resize them without pixelating them as much
as possible. The way I found that was most effective was the transform
tool, this allowed me to quickly resize images without affecting the quality
• The final risk I had to think about was inconsistency in my magazines
colour. I overcame this risk by using the eyedropper tool, this tool allows
you to select a colour already on the canvas and use that for whatever you
are creating. This allowed me to make sure all the red I used on my anti
cover and all the blue I used on my major cover were the same. However
you cannot use the eye dropper tool between windows, so for my DPS I
could not copy the colours from my front cover. The way I got around this
was copying the colours code and pasting it so it was exactly the same.
23. Calendar Events
• One event I will have to advertise my
magazine is in upcoming festivals this year
such as Wireless, as this is a festival which
features many of the artists which will feature
in my magazine, therefore a lot of the same
target market will be there, so it’s a good
opportunity to gain customers.
25. Conclusion
In this learning objective I discussed the feedback I
received regarding my pitch, then I analysed the
feedback that I received from my survey, I presented the
feedbacks using graphs so it could be clearly seen and
evaluated. I then made the improvements that were
suggested, after I had made the improvements I looked at
my production plan to show the process of creating an
issue, and when it would be published. The next thing I
looked at was the ethical and legal issues and how they
linked to my magazine so I could make sure I avoided
them. Afterwards I did a risk assessment and explained
how I overcame all the possible issues.
