Professor William Dean presented on using surveys to drive discussion and learning about ethics in the architecture classroom. He discussed definitions of ethics and how ethics are addressed in professional licensing, accreditation standards, and codes of conduct. Case studies from a study at Alfred State were presented to illustrate ethical dilemmas. The survey has proven effective for classroom discussion and assessment of student learning outcomes related to professional ethics.
Social Responsibility in Architectural Educationdrboon
Sustainable development is a widely accepted strategic framework in city planning and urban green spaces have an important role in it. Beside, increasing empirical evidence indicates that the presence of natural areas contributes to the quality of life in many ways. Also, urban nature provides important social and psychological benefits to human societies, which enrich human life with meanings and emotions. In order to exemplify the importance of urban green spaces for sustainability this paper analyses some historical Persian gardens for environmental sustainability and citizens’ well-being. In this study, historical Persian Gardens were chosen due to their historical background as first sample of Iranian urban green spaces which are still being used successfully. Some results of a survey conducted among visitors of historical gardens in Iran are presented and discussed. The issues investigated people’s motives for visiting gardens and the emotional dimension involved in the experience of nature and its importance for people’s general well-being.

Metis project deliverable D3.2: Draft of pilot workshopYishay Mor
This deliverable represents the analysis of best practices and workshop design from the first cycle of the METIS project methodology. Alongside this report a prototype is provided to allow access to the package of resources representing a workshop structure developed from the preliminary analysis of best practices in teacher training reported in Deliverable D3.1. Section 2 provides an account of the review of best practices, the process, current status and outcomes, and plans for the future. It also lists risks and challenges and implications to and from WP 2 and 4.
These are the presentation slides of the workshop I provided at the EUCEN Autumn Seminar 2022: http://autumn2022seminar.eucen.eu/programme/
The seminar's title is "University Lifelong Learning (ULLL) as enabler of talent enhancement. Re-skilling and up-skilling to meet new demands". Eucen is the European University Continuing Education Network.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

19. Examples for Discussion
“A recent graduate of an architecture school
wanted to work for a well-known architect whose
work she admired. She sent in her resume and
a few samples of her work, and the architect’s
assistant called her to come in for an interview,
during which she was offered a position in the
firm without pay”.
Developing Ethical Architects NYSETA Fall 2013 Conference 19
20. Examples for Discussion
“When she hesitated, the assistant said that many
recent graduates like her wanted to work there and
that if she did not take the offer, plenty of others
would. She was not independently wealthy and
would have to borrow money or take a second job
to meet her expenses, but she wondered if the
experience working for the architect would be
worth the price”.

The ethics survey has proven to be an
effective tool in fostering classroom discussion
on specific topics related to the study of
applied ethics in professional practice.
27. Conclusion
Developing Ethical Architects NYSETA Fall 2013 Conference 27
The survey is also used to demonstrate
student understanding of professional ethics in
meeting associated course student learning
outcomes. The evaluation of these outcomes
can then be tied back to program objectives
and used for the purposes of both course and
program assessment which effectively closes
the loop.
