This class will be taught through a mixture of formal lectures, discussion classes and Internet based discussion. Its aim will be to facilitate interaction between the lecturer and students and to stimulate debate among students. Every week a group of students will have to prepare a short section of the work and will be required to lead the discussion in class. Students will be graded on these efforts and this mark will count 15% of the year mark. Student's will also be required to take part in Internet based discussions and will be graded for this. This mark will count 10% towards the year mark. Additional material will be available on the course website on Kewl to facilitate this discussion and to assist students in their preparation for class and for the examination. Class attendance is very important as all issues canvassed in the exam will be discussed and analyzed in class.

Description:This workshop provides an introduction to urban environmental design and explores the potential of information technology and the Internet to transform public education, city design, and community development in inner-city neighborhoods. Integration of comprehensive ("top-down") and grassroots ("bottom-up") approaches to design and planning is a major theme. Students will work in a real neighborhood with real people on a real project, putting theory into practice and reflecting on insights gained in the process. We will study environmental and community history and devise designs for vacant land near a middle school in West Philadelphia within the context of planning for the larger community and watershed.
