This document outlines the individual assignment requirements for a course on architecture, culture, and civilization. Students must research a selected theme related to Malaysian architecture and religious places, and design a timeline and set of 10 postcards to educate others on the historical, architectural, and social connections. The assignment requires literature research, a timeline, a postcard series with packaging, an eportfolio, and a 1-minute video montage to document the project.
Artificial Reefs by Kuddle Life Foundation - May 2024punit537210
Situated in Pondicherry, India, Kuddle Life Foundation is a charitable, non-profit and non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to improving the living standards of coastal communities and simultaneously placing a strong emphasis on the protection of marine ecosystems.
One of the key areas we work in is Artificial Reefs. This presentation captures our journey so far and our learnings. We hope you get as excited about marine conservation and artificial reefs as we are.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Introduction
"What travel teaches us is that we are all essentially the same. There is not a 'them' and
an 'us'; there is really only 'us.'" The stunning photographs capture the theme of places
of visit. A good set of postcard serves a number of purposes: they're decorative,
informative, and attractive.
Objectives of Project
1. To introduce the Western and Eastern culture and civilization through an
overview of archeological discoveries, ancient monuments, artworks, philosophy
and achievement of great leaders from prehistoric to present.
2. To show basic skills on enquiry, investigation, application and presentation of
relevant information.
Learning Outcome
1. Able to describe the historical development of human civilization.
2. Able to recall the development of Eastern and Western human civilizations in the
past as well as present.
3. Able to demonstrate good documentation and presentation skills.
2. 2
Tasks
Part I: You are required to do a literature research on places of interest of your site
visit & timeline on the theme that was selected. From the literature review, you are
to study the theme given and its connection between the historical, architectural
and social aspects of the place. Documenting the right building, spaces and places
with the right content is important in this project. You are advised to work closely with
your tutor to ensure you are on the right track.
Theme:
Malaysian Architecture
Fusion Architecture
Religious Places
Spaces and People
Part II: You are to design a graphical timeline & expression of your findings in a
set of 10 postcards. The postcard series will create awareness and educate your
audience on the subject matter or focus of the study. This includes design & layout,
purpose, content, writing style, colours and etc. You are strongly encouraged to meet
with us regularly for further assistance.
Submission Requirement
Part I: Literature research (on eportfolio) & timeline (must be submitted on postcard) on
the places of interest, theme and connection between historical, architecture and social
aspects.
Part II: Postcard series with packaging (10 postcards). Progress and compilation of
weekly journal via E-Portfolio. (*special tab for Project 3)
Part III : 1 minute video montage of 10 best photos. (Complete information of designer,
lecturer, module and university’s information)
