This document outlines a Year 6 painting unit on popular culture as portrayed through still life paintings. It provides examples of still life paintings from ancient times to modern day and how they reflect the culture of different time periods. Students will complete tasks such as drawing a timeline of still life paintings through history, analyzing how paintings from different eras portray everyday objects and culture, and creating their own still life painting using various artistic techniques and elements of art. The unit aims to teach students how the portrayal of everyday objects in art can provide insights into the time and culture in which they were created.

ART THROUGH THE AGES
1. The Beginnings of Art
Art history, which begins around 30,000 B.C. with the earliest known cave paintings,
predates writing by about 26,500 years! That makes art history even older than history,
which begins with the birth of script around 3500 B.C. Along with archaeology, art
history is one of our primary windows into prehistory (everything before 3500 B.C.).
Cave paintings, prehistoric sculpture, and architecture together paint a vivid — although
incomplete — picture of Stone Age and Bronze Age life. Without art history, we would
know a lot less about our early ancestors.
With the beginning of history with the invention of script around 3500 B.C. the need for
art is still felt by humanity. And studying that art is still very important to understand the
past, since history is the diary of the past; this means that ancient peoples wrote about
themselves, so that we know their own interpretation of facts, not things as they were. Art
history is instead the mirror of the past. It shows us who we were, instead of telling us, as
history does. History is the study of wars and conquests, mass migrations, and political
and social experiments. Art history is a portrait of man’s inner life: his aspirations and
inspirations, his hopes and fears, his spirituality and sense of self.
2. The Great Ancient Civilizations
If we know who we were 10,000 years ago, we have a better sense of who we are today.
Even studying a few Ancient Greek vases can reveal a lot about modern society — if you
know how to look at and read the vases. Many Greek vases show us what ancient Greek
theater looked like; modern theater and cinema are the direct descendants of Greek
theater. Greek vases depict early musical instruments, dancers dancing, and athletes
competing in the ancient Olympics, the forerunner of the modern Olympic Games. Some
vases show us the role of women and men: Women carry vases called hydrias; men paint
those vases. Ancient art teaches us about past religions (which still affect our modern
religions) and the horrors of ancient war craft. Rameses II’s monument celebrating his
battle against the Hittites and Trajan’s Column, which depicts the Emperor Trajan’s
conquest of Dacia (modern day Romania), are enduring eyewitness accounts of ancient
battles that shaped nations and determined the languages we speak today. Art isn’t just
limited to paintings and sculptures. Architecture, another form of art, reveals the way
men and women responded to and survived in their environment, as well as how they
defined and defended themselves.

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

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.
