The traditional Mongolian Ger, or yurt, is a portable, round tent used by nomadic peoples. It has strong wooden poles and frames covered with thick felt fabric or animal skins. Gers are designed to withstand extreme weather and allow for mobility. They symbolize unity with nature in Mongolian culture and traditions. Setting up a Ger follows precise layout and etiquette rules reflecting its importance as a sacred home.

History of Round Homes: From Mongolian Gers to Modern YurtsPacificYurts
Yurts were once called gers and were used by nomadic Mongolian travelers throughout central Asia. Although that is not their purpose now, yurts have remained the same in design structure to facilitate environmentally conscious dwelling.
various types of houses are included along with their advantages and disadvantages. the various building materials and the weather conditions are included.
yurt camping means yurt is used for camping for a temporary stay. And the main difference between to camp at yurt camping and to camp at tent camping is that yurt camping is many steps away from tent camping because it provides more facilities like rooms. A camping yurt can’t become like a home but it offers facilities that are closer to home.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

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

1. Traditional Mongolian Ger
Design Studio 1
Assessment 1, research
Lecturer M.Arch Sandra Draskovic
Student: Ninjin Khishigdorj

2. History of Mongolian Ger
The word ‘Ger’ or ‘yurt’ has a
meaning of living space and the
word is not straightly translated
into other languages. This ‘ger’ is
‘home’ in English and ‘yurta’ in
Russian. Moreover, the words ‘tent’
and ‘caravan’ are used in
explanation of ‘ger’ due to its
availability of moving and re-
building.
Researchers say that
Mongolian ger (yurt) is originated
from wigwag (ovoohoi). The design
of Mongolian yurt has been
improved as life style changes time
goes by. Ger is the most common
necessity for nomadic people and is
designed to be persistent at any
natural disasters.
3. Advantages of Mongolian ger:
• Persistent in some natural disasters. Its short and round
shape helps to stand in strong wind and earthquake.
Also if the outer skirt is tied up during flood, a ger can
persist and not to be moved by flood water because the
walls are settled on the ground.
• Space usage. The round shape of a ger is the most
suitable for nomadic life style.
• Natural lightening. The crown, situated on the top
of a ger, is similar to windows, but also it is designed
well to manage airflow in a ger. People say that if
you sleep in a ger, you can feel yourself as a baby
slept in it’s cradle.
• Adaptable in climate. Single layered woollen felt
(cover) is used in summer to keep cool inside of a
ger and double covers can keep heat in a ger during
winter. Also, rain protection can be used during
rainy season.

7. The yurt frame is an ingenious assembly of well made wooden components, as quick to erect as any tent; but once
up more like a timber–framed building.
The yurt is a self-supporting structure; the frame holds its shape with no help from guy ropes or a stretched cover. In
all but the strongest winds the yurt will stand with nothing but gravity attaching it to the ground. This rigidity is
maintained by opposing forces exerted by different parts of the frame. The walls are firmly tied to the doorframe to
form a complete circle. The conical or domed roof, with its heavy crown exerts a force on top of the walls. This force is
kept in check and put to advantage by strong bands tied tightly around top of the wall. These opposing forces give the
frame great rigidity, which is further reinforced with the addition of downward pressure from a heavy roof cover and
the inward pressure from tight wall covers.
The yurt has an aerodynamic shape, the
wind slips over the structure with minimal
resistance. There are no flat or concave
surfaces to catch the wind. The yurt will not
blow down like an ordinary tent but can, in
exceptional circumstances, be lifted by a
strong gust of wind through the door. So
always peg the yurt down.
8. The shape of the yurt is very thermally
efficient. A large yurt can be easily kept
warm using a small wood burning stove
down to -5°C without any additional
insulation.
In Central Asia layers of thick felt keep the yurt
warm as the outside temperature drops well below
-40°C.
In hot weather the sides can be lifted: warm air
rises and exits through the open tono drawing cool
air in at the bottom.
9. The Practical Yurt
The yurt is probably the most practical temporary dwelling available, being:
Portable,Secure, the yurt can be fitted with a lockable wooden door. Entry cannot be gained even if the canvas is
cut.
Weather proof, the yurt has proven itself in the harsh climate of central Asia for centuries.
Warm in winter, being circular, with a relatively low roof it is easy to heat. Insulating layers can be sandwiched
between the frame and the cover.
Cool in summer, the sides can be rolled up, or removed to admit a cooling breeze. Hot air rises out through the
open tono, and cool air is drawn in.
Inconspicuous, despite having ample headroom, the overall height of the structure is low, allowing it to be easily
screened from unwanted attention.
Easy to erect, with a little practice the yurt can be erected or taken down in less than thirty minutes, even by one
person.
Easy to move, if you have pitched your ger in the wrong place, you can, with the help of a few friends, pick up the
entire yurt and move it without any need to take it down and re-erect it.
Environmentally friendly, coppicing of hazel, ash and willow, to provide poles is good for the tree and woodland
wildlife. All timber is from the local community forest. The yurt is a low impact dwelling, causing no permanent
damage to the land on which it is pitched. It can even be moved every few days to prevent the grass from being
killed.
Long lasting, the yurt can stand outside for several years without harm, if used occasionally it should last
indefinitely. In Mongolia the frame is expected to last a lifetime.
Fun!, for children and adults alike yurt camping is a real break from the usual holiday accommodation.
10. Within all cultures the circle remains the symbol of unity, representing the wholeness of all things and our
interconnectedness with nature. Shelter by Nomadic people is viewed as a sacred space, and everything in
the Yurt is orientated in the four directions thus acting as a physical compass.
11. Tradition and Etiquette
Having been home to the many tribes and cultures
of central Asia for millennia a great deal of
traditions, superstition, religious significance and
custom has built up surrounding the yurt.
Spiritual significance
To the Mongolian people the ger is more than just
a simple dwelling, in its construction the whole
universe is represented: The roof represents the
sky and the smoke hole the sun. The hearth
contains the five basic earth elements of
earth, wood, fire, metal, and water (metal in the
grate and water in the kettle). For the Mongols the
fire contains the house deity and is therefore
sacred, offerings are thrown on every morning. No
rubbish is burned on the fire and outsiders should
not take a light from it. The two upright roof poles
supporting the crown are of symbolic importance
rather than a structural necessity.
The Mongolian people are predominantly
Buddhist, and a shrine is set up opposite the
door, people sleep with their heads towards this
altar
12. Setting up home
The family yurt is usually obtained as a gift from the brides parents on a
couples marriage. The frame should last a lifetime, but the felt covers
need replacing every three to five years. The yurt is set up with the
door facing south. When families camp together during the winter the
group of yurts or ail are set in a circle with the opening to the south.
The roof poles and crown are carried in through the door, it is
considered bad luck to pass them over the wall.
The interior furnishings and seating arrangements are always
the same. The altar is placed opposite the door at the back of
the yurt. The hearth or stove is in the middle of the floor with
firewood or other fuel in front and a low table behind. The
western side is the domain of the men, male visitors and
honoured guests sit this side, where saddles, tools
and airag(fermented mares milk) are kept. The women and
children use the eastern side, where
rugs, bedding, food, cutlery, crockery and water are stored.
Servants, poor visitors and any sick or very young animals that
need nursing sit near the entrance.

15. MONGOLIAN GER color guide
Gers come in the six basic colors shown to the right. Orange,
red, light blue, dark blue, green and brown. On top of each base color,
each yurt component is then decorated with traditional Mongolian
designs that compliments your base color.
Red: A striking color. Often used for temple yurts due to many
Buddhist temples being
painted red. Can be a difficult color to live with but excellent for
commercial uses due to
it's striking appearance.
Light Blue: Well suited to a yurt in Western Europe. A combination
of the easy to live with
and dramatic. Whilst still bringing brightness to the interior of a
yurt.
Dark Blue: Not a traditional yurt color but one that is popular in
the West. Gives a yurt a
"distinguished" feel. Designs tend to be more prominent due to
being painted on a dark
color.
Green: Again not a traditional color, but perfect if you are going to
be siting your yurt in a
green field environment and do not want your yurt to stand out.
Has a very calming effect.
Brown: As per green, earthy but can be dramatic as the designs
when painted on a dark
color do stand out more.
