1. Traditional Korean architecture can be classified into palaces/temples and common houses called Hanok. Hanok styles varied by location but consistently used natural materials and integrated the environment.
2. Wealthier upper-class homes called Giwa jip had tiled roofs while lower-class homes like Choga jip and Nowa jip had thatched roofs.
3. Hanok incorporated the ondol underfloor heating system, where flues beneath wooden floors circulated heat from a fireplace to warm the home. The ondol remains widely used in modern Korean homes.

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.
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

2. Korean Houses
• Traditional Korean houses
remained relatively
unchanged from the Three
Kingdoms period through
the late Joseon Dynasty
(1392-1910).
• The traditional Korean
house is called Hanok.
3. Two major styles
1. Ancient Korean architecture
can be classified into two
major styles: 1) palaces and
temples 2) houses of common
people
2. The houses of common
people are called “Hanok. The
style and structure of Hanok
may vary depending on their
location in Korea.
4. Major Characteristics of Korean
Architecture
1. The natural environment was always regarded as an element
of supreme importance in Korean architecture.
2. Numerous Buddhist temples across the country were located
in mountains noted for their scenic beauty, and their
structures were carefully arranged so as to achieve an ideal
harmony with the natural surroundings.
5. Major Characteristics of Korean
Architecture
1. In selecting the site for a building of any function, Koreans
tended to attach special meaning to the natural
environment.
2. They did not consider a place good enough for a building
unless it commanded an appropriate view of "mountains and
water."
6. House for Lower class: Choga jip
1. Traditional Korean houses remained relatively unchanged
from the Three Kingdoms period through the late Joseon
Dynasty (1392-1910).

7. House for Upper Class: Giwa jip
1. Koreans of the upper classes built larger houses with tiled roofs.
The roofs were elegantly curved and accentuated with slightly
uplifting eaves.
2. These houses are called “Giwa jip”.
8. Upper Class house: Giwa jip
1. Traditional houses were built without using any nails
but rather assembled with wooden pegs.
2. Upper-class houses consisted of a number of
separate structures, one for accommodation of
women and children, one for the men of the family
and their guests, and another for servants, all
enclosed within a wall.
3. A family ancestral shrine was built behind the house.
A lotus pond was sometimes created in front of the
house outside the wall.

10. Ondol: Floor heating system
1. The Ondol style heating system has been deeply
rooted in the Korean life style even in today.
2. Many Korean houses still have an Ondol heating
system inside the house although those look
western styles from outside.
11. Korean Heating System: Ondol
• An ondol, also called gudeul, in Korean
traditional architecture, is underfloor heating
that uses direct heat transfer from wood
smoke to the underside of a thick masonry
floor.
12. Korean Heating System: Ondol
• Traditionally, the source of heat for the Ondol was a
fireplace.
• This might be located in the kitchen or on the outside
wall of the living room.
• Horizontal flues—passageways for heat and smoke—
ran beneath the room’s floor, connecting the fireplace
and the chimney. Hot air from the fire passed through
the flues and heated the stone and mud floor.
13. Ondol and Giwa
• Ondol, a unique Korean under-floor heating system, was first
used in the north.
• Smoke and heat were channeled through flues built under the
floor.
• In the warmer south, ondol was used together with wooden
floors. The major materials of traditional houses were clay
and wood.
• Giwa, or black-grooved tiles for roof, were made of earth,
usually red clay.
• Today, the presidential mansion is called Cheongwadae, or
Blue House, after the blue tiles used for its roof.
