Introduction to AI for Nonprofits with Tapp NetworkTechSoup
Dive into the world of AI! Experts Jon Hill and Tareq Monaur will guide you through AI's role in enhancing nonprofit websites and basic marketing strategies, making it easy to understand and apply.
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.

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.

2. As the children move on to Y3 we thought it would be nice to have a little trip down memory lane and review the past year in Y2.

10. Assembly and Christmas Production Y2 were the first class to hold a class assembly and what a fine job they all did too! The children brought Florence Nightingale back to life along with Elvis Presley and Molly Malone! Y2 also enjoyed the Christmas Production of “Ralph the Green Nosed Reindeer” with some fabulous acting, singing and narrating!
11. Mr Ward Y2 enjoyed Mr Ward, a student teacher, being in class and Mr Ward loved Y2 so much that he has regularly been back to visit and he came to Gulliver's World too! Mr Ward has a position at another school in September and we all wish him well.
12. Trips Y2 had a fantastic day at Formby Squirrel Reserve. The weather was great, the children were great and we all had great fun! Mrs Reed and Mr Ward having a race down the sand dune was a particular highlight of the day! We were also very lucky with the weather on our trip to Gulliver's World. Again, a great day was had by all! See separate photo show for pictures of the children.
13. Star of The Week All of the children have thoroughly deserved being the star for a week or two. Well done all of you!
14. Sports Day The day finally arrived and yes, we all managed to stay dry! All the children had a fabulous afternoon and did really well at each race, especially considering many had only had the chance to practice that morning due to our lovely weather! Well done to Hannah and Niamh in particular who supported Y3 in a race at the last minute.
15. Children's comments about Y2 Nathan – We have had fun in Y2 and I liked science. Olivia – I have loved everything about Y2. Kate – I enjoyed Gulliver's World because it was fun. Chloe – I liked the squirrels at Formby. Anna McK – I liked the teachers in Y2 and literacy.
16. Y2's Last week in Infants The last week started off well with Sports Day and continued when the children were told they no longer had to take their green reading books home! Don't forget the reading challenge though children at the Library!!! The children also took their first trip up to the Junior Department to have a look around their new classroom. They demonstrated how grown up they were and held the hand rail very sensibly. On Thursday we were treated to a fabulous Leavers Assembly by Y6 followed by a boogie at the school disco.
17. Finally, the children's last day as Infants! A nice early finish and the thought of six weeks holiday.......Bliss!!!
18. Farewell Y2, you have been a lovely class to teach and we have enjoyed your company very much indeed. Don't forget to visit us for a chat and to let us know what it is like being a Junior! Lots of love Mrs Brankin, Mrs Reed & Mrs Davies
