Modules1 Theard2 Thread 2: Response to "What is design?" from Hello World
original writing
From reading the book of Hello the world I think the design is a way to help us to
make the most of future breakthroughs .
For example, biomimcry and chemistry. Developing some new trasportation, which
will reduce the death rate in accident and we possessed more than we need or want
However, the design is not a panacea, it is one of the most powerful tools for people
to resolve problem
For example YIng zheng, who is the king of Qing. he was famous as tyrant and
cunning, he use nearly 10 years to compete with his reval。Then he became the king
of Qing. He began to attacked and defeated the weakest neigh-bouring states and
then he was ambushing the opposing army. A third state surrendered after Qing
troop attacked its captical city, From this, we can see that Ying zheng outwitted his
enemy by using design.
The most important reason for Ying zheng got triumphs is his troops’ weapons He
trained his soldiers and ensured that they would use their weapon efficiently, which
was a essential reason to win in the war. The same important design thing about the
weapon is its size,shape, choise of material
another important were the change to Qin’s bows and arrows----Archers However,
the problem is one kind of bow only can match with one kind of arrows. Therefore,
when archer run out of arrows during the war, it is impossible to fire another arrows
for his bow. The Ying zheng resolve this problem by requiring worker to shaft of each
arrows as the same size precisely
Let us talk more about Qin shi huang, as we all know, he established the empire of
China, he was standardized weights and measure for trading. he try to avoid dead,
therefore, he dispatching expeditions into the seas east of China in doomed
attempts to find the mythical island of Penglai. However, the expeditions failed, he
began to design imperial mausoleum, which should show his power and force. Above
I said, we can see that we are conscious and design things before we do it design
means we plannig something before the things happen.
Until now, we also use the technology to improve our technology, For example,
apple and samsung company teams of designers try to find cheaper and more
efficient ways of producing their new degital devices.

Modules1 Thread 3: Response to "Introduction" from Diversity and Design
original topic
By reading the Introduction of design, I know Most of the world is
designed by adults. Children have little say in what gets designed and
chindren have less physical ability and less education than adults. They have
little economic power and almost no political power. These factors both lead to
and exacerbate their marginal status in design and society. However, the
design also impacts all social group I will explain The design influences how
we see ourselves, how we see others, and how others see us.
Some simple sample about design is for industrial design to architecture,
and from media design to system design the diversity and design, which
focuse on the changing nature of society
I also know the defining design from the book. Like diversity, design is a
vast subject, but for professional disciplines, the design members have
acquired specific knowledge and skills necessary to design media, products,
buildings cities, environment and so forth. design also is considered a basic
component of humanity 1, people have desire 2 ,people have different culture
3, digital visual and physical environment. Therefore reducing the distance
between different kind of people is most important charge to the design
professions today. The aim for design is to mix different or diversity culture and
language togther. if we need to learn other countries’ culture, we should design
the way to communicate with each other.
I think Design is the process of communicating a plan, plan, or idea in
some form. Through the transformation of human labor, the creation of
civilization, the creation of material wealth and spiritual wealth, and the most
basic, the most important is the creation of creative activities. Design is the
creative activity of the pre planning, can be any creative activities of the
planning technology and planning process as a design.

Photos that Changed the World
Original writing
There is no question that the Internet has changed modern life by providing
us with easy access to a lot of information. In my memory, the various of
illness leave the deep impression to me. Media post pictures in the internet is
very important to response the event, I think the black Death picture
should be posted as News. The black death is the modern name given to the
deadly bubonic plague an epidemic disease spread by rat fleas across Europe
in the 14th century. It swept through England's population from million to two
million by the end of the 14th century. the economic consequences of the black
death were far-reaching. As a result of the plague, much land was left
untended and there was a terrible shortage and labour. if we just watch
newspaper with a article or print version, we cannot feel the terrible illness of
Black death taking how much pain to people.
the media have 4 advantage.
1,It Helps News Spread Fast We no longer have to wait for the morning or
evening news to get caught up on current events. You can turn on CNN, Fox
News, MSNBC or one of the many other 24-hour news channels to get news
2,It Keeps You Updated With Current Events Whether you want to keep up
with your community, state, country or world, the media is there to provide
you all the information you need to know.3,It Can Help You Form Opinions
On The World By consuming a number of different opinions throughout the
media, you can better know where you stand on the political spectrum. Doing
this will help you to find more out about yourself.4,If you witness something
that you think is newsworthy, you can call up the local or national media and
pitch them a storyYou Can Use It To Get Stories Out.

Modules 2Thread 2: Response to Articles on Hats as Communication
Design
1 Trump’s ubiquitous bright red trucker hat, festooned with”make America
Great Again” Good design doesn't necessarily mean effective design." the hat took
on a life of trump’s own, becoming the subject of memes and parody. I thing trump
use so much money on hats is for expressing information. Try to think about it, a huge
amount of people wear the same hat, which is very in order, the hat also indicate some
information about how animated the demographic trump was, another important issue
is about the visual fluency is crucial for everyone,
As we all know the hat, if the designer design”design thinking” and “design
strategy”in the hat, so many people wear the hat with a kind of volition of trump,
other people who was not wear the hat will feel very powerful about the group people
wearing the hat I need to mention about the color of the hat, Trump company spend so
much money to buy the red color hat，someone picked red since it's the color for the
Republican party, and basic Times New Roman lettering in white so it would stand
out against the cap., However, the Women’s march on Washington were wearing
bright pink hats to be a strong visual signal on the day of the march.
The same meaning of two hat is the hat represent of volition, the red hat represent the
volition of trump and the pink hat represent the volition of American woman, the
different thing I metion above.

first,cradle to cradle is a biomimetic approach to the design of products and
syste. The cradle and cradle suggest the industry should to protect ecosystems
and nature’s biological. The industry should product some high-quality and
circulation of organic, which is holistic econommic. Industry try to creat a
system, which not only have high efficient but also have essencially free waste.
they can use the system in building and social system.
second, the cradle to cradle will be helpful because the world’s population is
increasing so fast. However, here are not so many rescourse in the world.
I checked in the website and find some sourses about the cradle to cradle,
which is Aquion energy, Aquion energy was producted in electronics industry
and invented by CEOScott pearson and CTO Jay Whitarc. The Aquion energy
is a electricity storage systems. The product can provide a low-cost way to
store large amount of energy. the process of producting Aquion energy is
super safty because industry can product it in a wide range of temperatures
and non-toxic end product made from widely available material inputs.
I think the Aquion Energy not only can provide large amount of energy at once
charge but do not product any pollution.

Theard 1 By reading the book, I know the key characteristic of industrial design
is therefore the manufacturing context for which designs are created. However,
we know the industrial design is not design for a true thing or material but
mass-production methods. The aim of modern industrial designers is to
product a plan and a specification of a form or mechannism for large-scale.
I really like a example about German car Volkswagen to explain the industry
design. the beetle become the best selling vehicle of all time and I also have to
mention a person-Adolf Hitle, who attempted to have such a car
manufactured commercially failed and then he began to try mass-production
method same to he used in U.S early. furthermore, the concept make a success
in military vehicl.
I also like the word said by john ruskin and william morris, which is the woker
should have skill and creative In their work. I think worker should have their
own thougnt but not a” mechain”, which just know how to made but don’t
know how to invent.
I think now we can use the concept providing by Henry Ford’s assembly
line,which will make the products with a cheaper price to produce. People can
buy the cheap goods that they can improve their quality of life.
I have some advice about the product line. The invention of production line
can reduce the skillful of worker, which also cause a bad effect that people do
not want to think to use their intellegence. The product line can improve the
quality and speed of producting goods even can produce more delicater goods
than artifical goods. However, the line will cultivate people’s inert thought.
Therefore, my advice is company shouldn’t only pursuing the efficient of
product but some innovation things.
Based on watching Ted talk, As conti is talking something in 4 minutes into
the video He said about 3-D printed cabin design by a computer regarding a
concept plane. perhaps, our father don’t know what is 3-D printed. but know
the 3-D printed skill was been known all over the world so that the high-tech

development is so fast. I am not sure that does the 3-D print can reduce the
pollution but at least, I know the 3-D print can provide people with diffrient
angle to watch the world. Therefore, the things is awesome at least now. Let us
to see the result in the future.

Thread 2: Response to Ballantyne and Zumthor Articles
Andrew ballantyne believes that buildings that are involved with our daily lives are
part of our system of habits, we also live with archtecture in the background. He give
an example to record our relationship with building that is taking a picture to help
perserve the memory. Author begin to tell us more about artwork for building, which
can make us focus our attention on artwork and to derive some benefit by doing so.
However, the Andrwe tell us that building is not a artwork but a tool. Then author
talk the pragmatist aesthetics can help us to value the building that matter to us
when we use the building and it is work well.(this author is first article)
Now I want to taik more about the Ballantyne and zumthor. They are two different
people, but they love the architecture, they want to think some way to change their
style to build, they want make people to feel in a particular place but not to focus on
the building. architecture. the architecture should base on our life. Therefore, they
believes that architecture can make me people’s life become more convenience
However, the Andrwe ballantyne tell us that we should aware building near us. he
think we should find artwork in the building but not to ignore something. He is more
concentrate more on the creative of the building. He allow us to find some fantastic
things in building of our life, He think building should have a little psychological
function.
The Mr. Zumthors is a realism. He believes that every build have its own specific
reason. He is more concentrate on the material of the building and essence of the
building but not a creative.

Thread 1: Response to All Module 4 Materials
I was watching the TED video, I am super interesting to talk the modern building and
future building in this video. I think she is very far-sight because she believes that the
architecture is to build a reletionship with each other including of human, nature
even ecosystem. She believes that architecture should be based on climate,
individual,plant,insect, community.
For example, She talk about a past sensibilities building, which is a circle building
surrounding by three triagle building. She was used tree to build the wall of the
triagle. She said it is build a relationship with ecosystem. However, I have a little
confuse about it. You cut a tree for building but you think you are build a relationship
with ecosystem? The tree was die and you destory the ecosystem balance. I don’t
think you cut trees for building, which is to build a relationship with ecosystem.
However, I think use the center of the cycle building as a communication room,
which is a good design. because people can be gathered from different way to center.
Most important thing is people can see with each other.
Another example is modern building, she was talked about a skyscraper in the city.
She create a prominent place in every floor, which is super good for people to
communicate with each other. They can talk with each other in different floor but
not use their own phone. I think it is a good design for moden building

Thread 2: Response to Pruitt Igoe Project, Talen, and Larson After watching
the TV and reading two article, I want to talk about the Pruitt-igone, which is a
large urban housing project first occupied in 1945(from video) In the 1960s
the place had become infamous for its powerty, crime and racial segregation.
The building of here were demolished with explosives in the mid-1970s,and
the project become a failure urban design.Why Pruitt-igone was failure? I
think the most important reason is residents were leaving the city, and leaving
low-income families in here, who is low quality low education level even low
cosumption. I think the Talen’s opinion is very important that Talen use
design to promote social and economic mix in human settlement-mixed in
income, mixed in use, and activety supportive of place that commingle people
of different races, ethnicitise, genders ,ages, occupations and households. She
believes that planner can let the different level of people to live in same place.
I think it is important because it promote the diversity of society. The city
need wealthy people to carry those poor people because if all of people have a
lot of money, what we should to develop? or what we should to improve?
Therefore, I think the social devircity is super important. However, I disagree
with her opinion that mixing black, white and other skin color people living in
same building because everyone take color glasses to look around. Try to think
about it. If you are a white people, can you look black people as white people?
I don’t think so, I am not a racial discrimination because I also come from
China. My skin color is yellow. Therefore, I also keep distance with other racial.
Therefore, I think we can make friend with each other but not deep. Therefore,
I don’t think mix black, white together is a good strategy.
Kent larson is a creative person, he always want to design efficient
building to make sure you can fit the most people in the least amount of space.
He live in a city for 15years. Therefore, I think he have many experience for
building For example, he want to bring advanced technology into the
apartment, technology enable infill. He is a strict person, I think if he rebuild
the pruitt igoe project, he will not design the black and white people in same
building and he will know them background and where is people’s mother or
father come from. He is concentrate more on individual. He’s design can help
us to understand their lives.

wow, If I design the building, I would like to design building like a
villa-dubble floor, I will build a lake in the middle of all building. the lake will
surrounded by all of the villa as a center. I will keep same style about the
building like larson said. I don’t like diversity. I will not leave so much
distance between two house because people can communicate with each other.
I want to build a high-level residential because I will give a little high price for
safety.

Thread 1: Response to Levy Article
First, I want to talk about the plan,which can determine the characteristics of
a place(cite from the beginning of the article) 1 the development city require
planner to design a convenience transportation for citizen use. They also
need to design a traffic patten to use but not so many people use it. Bicycle
and walk should be separated from automobile traffic because in the
development city, here is so many citizen. If all of them use the car, the traffic
jam will happen. Another kind of city is developing city. In this country,
planner need to design a low price house for those low income group of people.
The planner also need to encourage existing industry to remain and that
encourage new firms to locate within the community(cite from the last 2
paragraph), which is help for developing city.
Now I want to introduce my home. I grew up in a big city in Daqing of
HeiLongJiang province of China.
Da qing located in north of China, which is a "oil city". Therefore, Daqing rely
on exploiting oil for living.

We have a traffic patten to use, which is not so many people to use it. we have
four main path for automobile passing and we also have two bicycle path in
the beside of the road. Da qing enjoy development transportation. the
government build the high-speed rail and airport for the convenince of citizen.
The planner design those noise place far away our center of city that we will
not disturb by those noise. the level of people's life is higher than our surround
city. Therefore, The planner design the supermarket in the center of the city,
people use their own income to buy some luxury goods for their family.
Obviously, Daqing is a developing city. Therefore, other citizen from other city
want to find work in Daqing, which will exert the problem of unemployment
because some people coming from small village are try hard to work for their
family and house rent. Therefore, the planner design some cheap houses for
those poor people beside of the center of Da Qing. Most important thing is
about some old memory building. There is a problem for planner because with
the development of economic city need to dismantle some old buildings.
However, some old buildings have significant history meaning. I think planner
should dismantle some slimsy buildings or some buildings take important
place.
Now I want to talk more about the interconnect and complexity in my city(cite
from the beginning of the article) the meaning of the interconnect in our city
is concern. the city is dense development but not fragmentary developments,
we develop the high building, airport, we develop the agricultural too. The
government give peasantry with extra money every year. Furthermore, our
city is super complexity. because we process 2million people in the city. we
have diverse transportation tools we have different cultural because people
come from different place.
Finally, I think planner should have common educational background,which
is formal trainning in planning, most often a master's degree

Thread 1: Response to F.L. Olmsted
Olmsted's principles of design, generally speaking, encourage the full
utilization of the naturally occurring features of a given space. Olmsted designed
primarily in the pastoral and picturesque styles. The buffalo niagara falls accord with
the pastoral and picturesque features because I always come here.

Olmsted incorporated three elements into the park system: a large park, about 350
acre, a large meadow park with 120 acres, and a parade ground in the inland area.(cite
from the video)Finally Olmsted and Vaux added the system of parkways all which
connected the parks. These parkways througout all of the city. I think Frederick is so
successful to connect so many park with city. He is super glad to claim “the buffalo is
the best planned city” I think he creat a city system in buffalo, which is city connect
with nature,which is unique work in Frederick life.
Therefore, if not the world, he said the buffalo is the best work, in his viewpoint,
he can mix nature and city so well, which is a significant success. I was came so many
city in the world. For example, Shang hai and guangzhou shen zhen of China. Those
city is super big city in China. However, I cannot find a good nature place in those
city. Those city planners build so many industries and building that the air condition
is so terrible. Shang hai is the only city nearing the sea. However, here is so many
people living in Shang hai that we cannnot feel the relationship between human and
nature. Another example is American city. I also visited the tanpa bench in Miami,
white bench, I think the city planning is so good because the bench near the city.
people can walk around with tanpa when they feel suffer from heavy stress. However,
here only have a beach in tanpa, no so many tree no park. Although so many place
have park or beach or whatever, They cannot plan like buffalo,which have 3 park
connect with city and a significant falls river.
I don’t think olmsted would make that claim today. In modern society, we cannot
find a city can connect with super big park because modern society design don’t allow
so huge place to leave unused. I mean the place cannot take economic benefit.
Although we have so much place for building park. Those place will not use same
standard with buffalo. Therefore, Niagara falls park is a unique style I think and the
buffalo is a life city, which have ability to grow and adapt to the lifestyles of its
people

Thread 2: Response to Walter Hood's Work As walter Hood's said the triad of
investigation is landscapes designs life ways, which is depend on everyday, the
mundane and designs life ways. In my opinion, I strongly agree the walter
Hood's opinion that the river should keep intact but not change the river for
communication or a park. I think the river have a little different with park.
People can build a park, which is not destroy the nature balance because
people was not cut tree or whatever.

However, if we build something near the river like bridge. Think about it, If
we build a bridge above the river, you have to fill sand in the river, which will
reduce the scale of river. When we dismantle the bridge,which also ruin the
nature balance because some fish or other animals rely on the bridge for living
For example, sea mew build a nest under the bridge. If we dismantle the
bridge, where the sea mew go? here have other species depend on bridge for
living. Therefore, I design a new landscape. I will make the place look like very
comfortable. For example, I live in Daqing of Heilongjiang of China. Daqing
have a wet land in the center of city. As we all know, wed land is the kidney of
global therefore, we should to protect the wet land but not allow industry
to build near the wet land. Walter hood's said" the best appearance is the
original appearance".
I think the image of seabird fly in the sky with tweet, reed swing, and the
breeze blew over the lake leave impress memorize when I was a small child.
However, now people take the reed to make paper. people take bird eggs away.
If I am a supervisor in here, I will not allow those things happen.
Its funny that I talked about preserving the wetlands, because in todays day in
agree no one does such a thing, they do like I say and just put sand on top of it.
I think that we should try and persevere these great "lungs" as I can call them.
Buffalo is a perfect example of filling in wetlands, especially with the more
developing that is going on in buffalo. I remember I use to work at a store
called Philips Hardware, anyways they were planning on developing and it
didn't happen because they were surrounded by wet land, on the inside I was
happy because I didn't want to see the destruction of the land.

Thread 2: Response to Charles Davis and equityXdesign's Work
The push for an African American history site in Washington began in 1915,
when black Civil War veterans asked for a monument on the Mall. But it
wasn’t until 2003 that President George W. Bush signed the museum’s
authorizing legislationThe museum will “stand in proof that the most
important things in life rarely come quickly or easily,”Obama said

The concept of a national museum dedicated to African-American history and
culture"National Memorial Building" showcasing African-American
achievements in the arts and sciencesThe museum, built and funded with
private money. I think the museum is invention, recognition and inclusion.
For example, “art collection will explore the breadth and depth of hip-hop

Through most of the eighteenth and into the early nineteenth century a number of

castas=mixed people, which means the African woman get married with spanish
man, which is different race mixed in 1750-1800 this painting depict people in a
variety of trades and occupations, some picture tell us about a happyness family. For
example picture 1, which is light falls on the whute paper that the boy is holding, on
which he has written the word parco, which is peace picture another is aggressive
picture. In this picture, The man’s eyes are wide open as he tires to restrain her. The
child of their union, a Mulatta, looks up and screams in fear as she grabs her
mother’s skirts. From this, we can see castas were somethings able to live beyond

Thread 2: Response to Article on Sports Branding I think the sports branding
shouldn't focus on ethnicity because the ethnicity is super sensitive For
example, Black people don't like to talk more about their own color of skin .
First the sports branding have influence in the society. The sports brand will
have different evaluation about white people and black people. However, here
are so many other countries people who will have a potential recognize about
black or white people, which perhaps will leave bad impression to other
countries people. In my opinion, I don't like to focus on the color of skin or
ethnicity because I think to talk the color about people, which is disrespect to
someone. most important is potential "discriminate of color skin", which will

cause people don't like to support the team, which is balck people team or
white people.

 Thread 2: Response to Bathroom Bill
Oh I Think we shouldn't to discrimination the person who change his own
gender. Therefore, I believes that people shouldn't be required to use the
bathroom that corresponds with the biological gender because of two reason
First, if a man has change his own gender to woman. The ”man" believes that
he is a "woman" because he even haven't genitals. If he come to man
bathroom, I think all of the man in the bathroom will discriminate the "man"
who haven't a genitals. Therefore, I think the "man" should to use the woman
bathroom as the man thought. he believes that he is a woman. Why the law
required him to look like a man? No sense right? another reason is why we
should use the bathroom that corresponds with the gender? First because shy
second sexual crime. Try to think about it, a man who become a woman. I
think he using the woman bathroom will not make girl feel shy and I think we
do not need to worry about "man" to crime right? Therefore, I believe that
people don't need to use the bathroom that corresponded with the biological
gender

From this picture, we can see that the discrimination against female in china,
which is reducing now because we can see the woman ratio is increasing with
the time pass. At 19 th, most of people were lived in a small village. Therefore,
They have to get an boy for farming. Another reason is the boy can keep
continuity of a clan. However, the girl haven't so many advantage for poor
family. However, with the development of economic, now we have condition
to bring up a girl. people don't need to deliberate intervene the ratio of gender.
However, now so many place also don't like to accept a girl because the name
of their child. In china traditional culture. It is very disrespect for their parent
when they cannot continuity of a clan. Therefore, it is always happen that
some grandmother or grandfather don't want to get an girl. However, In
American, people can accept the girl or boy because they never mind about the
continuity of clan

Thread 1: Response to PPT, Smithsonian, and Roy
I agree that there are many advantages of human enhancement technologies
and it will continue to grow in the near future. Human enhancement provides
a wide range of opportunities for humans. Its main use is to help people with
disabilities to do things they could not do before. Also, it has been very useful
in curing diseases as well which results in longevity. But there are many
disadvantages for this emerging technologies as well which we must take into
account. Increased life spans can lead to overpopulation which will result in
scarcity. Also, using technologies to make a child better and healthier will be
unjust to those who are not able to afford it. Do you believe that
human enhancements will change us in such a way that we will start to
behave similarly to others? In my opinion, human enhancements will make us
all look the same and have identical characteristics and there won't be much
difference among people.

Thread 2: Response to Survey, FIXED, and Stelarc
One lesson that I think we should learn from history when thinking about
emerging enhancement technologies and reproductive technologies is to use
the technologies in a meaningful way that would favor the whole society rather
than abuse them for bad individual intentions. This reminds me of the
existing technology used to examine the gender of the fetus. This is currently
prohibited in China since many families from rural areas would value boys
more than girls. Once the family finds out that the fetus is a girl, they might
consider abortion. This could lead to the serious problem of gender imbalance,
and thus leads to many other problems in the society. In my opinion, the
emerging enhancement technologies and reproductive technologies should be
not randomly used by anyone. The use of the technologies should be limited
and regulated. Being able to design our bodies and the bodies of our children
might result in the positive consequence that there would be no one born with
birth defects and needed to be taken care of by others in the society. This
would alleviate the burdens for social welfare institutes and more resources
would be used toward other social developments. Also, the favorable genes
would make individuals get work done more efficiently and be able to bring
more contributions to this world. However, being able to design our bodies
and the bodies of our children might also lead to the negative consequence
that this world would be extremely competitive or extremely uncompetitive
because most of people would be incredibly intelligent, talented, and
competent. People would make no difference from one another in the society.
I could imagine how this could lead to chaos, fights, or even wars in the future
society. These technologies pose ethical quandaries such that the naturally
born people or the average people who do not have the favorable designed
characteristics would be abandoned or discriminated in the society, and such
that people would lose the motivation to work hard for

RE: Thread 1: Response to Titicut Follies
I think Wiseman should have been allowed to film the residents
of Bridgewater Massachusetts Correctional Facility because it
allowed people to see the cruelty and the living conditions of the
occupants. Even though the video didn't have the consent of the
occupants, it created better living conditions in these facilities.
The video led to the changes in awareness of the mentally ill in
America and designers and workers started to pay attention to
the design of the facility, patients' possessions, and the system of
care. This film might be of value to designers because they will
not let the actions in the video happen in the future. Also, it can
let designers realize that what they design affect the residents of
the facility and design a better place. It might affect architects
because they might change the floor plans to create privacy in
the rooms and more interaction within the residents. They will
gain insight of what can happen if they design a poor and flawed

facility. In the future, their other works that include facilities and
homes may change depending on how they want users to
interact within the space and not create a mess.

Thread 2: Response to PPT, The Architecture of
Autism, Public Space
As a resident of the neighborhood, I would support the proposal
of building a group home for ten intellectually challenged adults.
One reason why is because they are allowed to live anywhere
they want and even though they are challenged, they are still
function like humans and the rest of society. Also, if I were to
oppose this proposal, I would be counteracting Wolf
Wolfensberger's argument where he says that "this
dehumanization, and the segregated institutions that result from
it, ignored the potential productive contributions that all people
make to society." After learning that the residents of the
proposed group home in my neighborhood exhibited challenging
behaviors in 2013, I would be affected by it, but I wouldn't allow

my opinion to change. People that are "regular" scream in their
homes and in public places too, so I don't think I should be
judging the three adults. Moreover, their behaviors including
public masturbation, repetitive rocking, and echolalia were
taken in 2013, almost 4 years ago. By now, there might have
been changes in their behavior and since the majority of them do
not show these actions, it will be limited to what neighbors will
see.
A possible solution that would allow the residents of the home to
be provided with "the same basic human rights as the rest of the
population" is to let them live where they want to live. There
shouldn't be a proposal to decide if they are allowed to live there
or not and only proposals for big malls or a skyscraper. Another
possible solution is to create a community around the residents
so that they won't feel isolated and will be able to go around the
neighborhood.

Thread 1: Response to The Connection Between Religion and Urban Planning by David Engwicht

During high school I had a friend who was very involved with
her church, The Pleasant Valley United Methodist Church. While
I was not religious and I belonged to a different religion
technically, I still helped out with volunteer events at her church
sometimes. The church is very involved with helping the poor
and has a food pantry that they encourage members to donate to
on a regular basis. By helping the poor with food, it has allowed
them to focus on keeping their houses in good shape and tending
to their own health. This has allowed the area to be warm
looking and mostly free from crime. Over time, the church also
developed a community garden in which people can take a plot
and grow their own food. This has also encouraged people to
grow gardens in their own homes. This church will continue to
help poor in the future and hopefully encourage more people to
grow gardens.

Thread 2: Response to Prospects for the Future of
Diversity and Design
I am majoring in Aerospace Engineering and Math with an
intent to work in the Aerospace field in the future. Considering
the Aerospace field is huge, it's hard to pin down what the
biggest problem is. The aerospace field incorporates jets, planes,

drones, spacecraft, satellites and many more. I personally think
that a problem that applies to everything in the field is finding
long lasting materials to withstand atmospheric changes, heat,
and high pressure. Currently, there has only been one rocket that
has been able to be relaunched since the materials usually are
unable to withstand more than one launch. In addition, The first
supersonic jet, the Concorde had a very short lifespan due to a
lack of strong enough materials. In my current classes, I have
not gone into depth about how to solve the materials problem
but I plan to take a materials class in my junior year. I plan to
use the knowledge gained in that class and work with other
people to find a solution once I am in the field.
