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.

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.
1. Read the text about Valentine’s Day and do the given tasks.
Valentine's Day, or St Valentine's Day, is celebrated every year on 14
February. It's the day when people show their affection for another
person (or people!) by sending anonymous cards, flowers or chocolates
with messages of love. And traditionally on Valentine's Day in a leap
year - every four years - women can propose marriage to their lovers!
The day gets its name from a famous saint, but there are several stories of who he
was. The most popular belief about St Valentine is that he was a priest from Rome in
the third century AD. Emperor Claudius II had banned marriage because he thought
married men were bad soldiers. Valentine thought this was unfair, so he broke the
rules and arranged marriages in secret. When Claudius found out, Valentine was
sentenced to death and thrown in jail. There, he fell in love with the jailor's blind
daughter. His love and belief in God cured her blindness, and when he was taken to
be killed on 14 February he sent her a love letter signed "From your Valentine".
The first Valentine message (apart from the one St Valentine wrote himself!) is
thought to be a poem from Charles, Duke of Orleans to his wife in 1415. He was
captured at the Battle of Agincourt and was imprisoned in the Tower of London
to await execution. But Valentine's Day didn't become popular in the UK until
the 17th century. By the 18th century it was traditional for people to swap
handwritten messages of affection. Printed cards soon replaced these, making it
easier for people to say "I love you" secretly.
Valentine's Day is a very old tradition, thought to have originated from a pagan
fertility festival. The Romans had a festival called Lupercalia in the middle of
February, officially the start of their springtime. As part of the celebrations,
boys drew names of girls from a box. They'd be boyfriend and girlfriend during
the festival and sometimes they'd even get married! The Christian church
decided they wanted to turn this festival into a Christian celebration and decided
to use it to remember the death of St Valentine too. Gradually, St Valentine's
name started to be used mainly by men to express their feelings to those they
loved.
Nowadays, Valentine's Day is massive, with celebrations of love worldwide from India to
Iceland. But it's not just about sending messages to people you love - you can also just say you
care! In the UK, a massive amount of money is spent on what some say is the most romantic
day of the year: 22 million spent on flowers , 7 million red roses are sent , 12 million cards are
sent . But in 2001, text messaging exploded, with around 30 million WUBMV messages sent!
And according to research: half of all mobile users expect Valentine's txt msgs from loved
ones, one in four use txt msgs to ask someone out on 14 February , one in four have sent
soppy messages to wrong person! So, have a happy Valentine's Day but remember: don't feel
left out if you don't get a card - it's the giving that counts!
