Egypt grew around the Nile River, which flooded annually and provided fertile land. Egypt was divided into Upper and Lower Egypt. Around 3100 BC, King Menes unified Egypt and began the Egyptian civilization. Egypt was then divided into four historical periods: the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms and the Late Period. Egyptian society was divided into privileged and non-privileged classes. The economy relied on agriculture along the Nile. Egyptians had advances in mathematics, astronomy, and built temples and tombs decorated with paintings and sculpture.

Egypt’s stability is in stark contrast to the Ancient Near East of the same period, which endured an overlapping series of cultures and upheavals with amazing regularity. The earliest royal monuments, such as the Narmer Palette carved around 3100 B.C.E., display identical royal costumes and poses as those seen on later rulers, even Ptolemaic kings on their temples 3000 years later.

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.

Temples: were the house of a god with different parts:
avenue of sphinxes, obelisks, pylons, courtyard, hypostyle
hall and sanctuary. The main examples are Karnak and
Luxor.
38. Sculpture was very rigid and idealised. Painting was
used to decorate the wall of temples and tombs. The
human figure was depicted using frontalism.
