The document summarizes preliminary findings from a research project studying how strategic spatial planning contributes to urban regional development through projects. Key findings are that strategic plans are often implemented through projects due to limited resources, scarce land, and repurposing outdated areas. Projects catalyze transformation. Governance involves collaboration between public entities and private groups. Further research is needed to fully understand these relationships and their impact on land use change.

The role of strategic spatial plans in managing urban-rural relationshipsPrivate
Recent decades have witnessed a huge change in the global structure of the human population, with the majority of people now living in urban environments. Rural-to-urban migration flows, mainly due to labour opportunities in urban areas, are responsible for the majority of this growth. Such events aggravate the urban-rural divide and compromise sustainable land-use systems. Hence, planning and managing urban areas and rural hinterlands require integrative spatial planning strategies, as well as strong land use management policies. In this regard, strategic spatial plans have been increasingly developed in many urban regions worldwide, as a means to achieve sustainable land use patterns, guide the location of physical infrastructures and shape urban-rural dynamics. It is realistic, therefore, to expect that strategic spatial plans may contribute to fostering the linkage between urban centres and rural hinterlands. This study reviews the content of strategic plans and other spatial policy documents currently in force in European and North American urban regions. The central goal of this study is to analyse the policies and measures in the plans to understand the role strategic spatial plans play in balancing the urban-rural nexus. The findings allow us to distinguish three dominant approaches, which reflect spatial patterns: i) strategic plans in European cases are focused on promoting brownfield redevelopment and stimulating polycentricity as a counter-urbanization measure; ii) strategic plans in Canadian cases demonstrate strong preoccupations with farmland protection for food security in striving for a more equal development of urban and rural areas; iii) strategic plans in assessed US cases are mainly focused on curbing urban sprawl and avoiding further land take for urban and infrastructure development, while rural hinterlands are largely neglected. The study concludes by outlining recommendations intended to support strategic planning processes and sustainable land management.

Evaluate deficiencies and shortages for the Libyan Residential Urban Planning...journal ijrtem
ABSTRACT: The change in human society and the population increase in Surman citypopulation has led to an increase in environmental problems and the increasing depletion of resources and natural resources and non-optimal use of land. This has led to the disparity in the distribution of services, functions, lack of recreational areas, green areas, playgrounds, and other services. Surman City scheme suffers from many problems, particularly the spread of housing projects. This has to be reconsidered in the ways of development and the urban environment of the city planning. Sustainable urban planning is one of the most important ways and strategies that can be followed for a diaper on Surman city scheme and preserves the rights of future generations to live in urban and convenient style. The purpose of this research evaluation of residential areas Surman city scheme to know shortages and deficiencies of the scheme of the city and their suitability for the planning of an urban sustainability using Arc (GIS) technology. It isimportant means in the fields of life, especially the areas of sustainable urban planning where they can be utilized in the analysis and conclusions, as well as future studies accurately and fast. The study found out that appropriate measurable indicators can be relied upon to develop design criteria for residential that will help to achieve a sustainable urban plan during the preparation of urban schemes or develop existing schemes. Keywords: Evaluate residential urban planning,GIS, Sustainable urban planning, Residential urban planning.

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.
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.
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.

The objective of this presentation
ERC TBS
Consolidator Grant
3. CONCUR project main overall goal
Conceptualizing the impact of strategic spatial planning on urban land change:
• Spatial information expressed in plans (Aim 1);
• Territorial governance arrangements/components (Aim 2);
• Supra-regional conditions (Aim 3).
4. CONCUR project aims
The development of the theoretical model will be achieved in the
following specific aims
Aim 1 Establishing a method for measuring spatial information
contained in strategic plans (e.g., maps, spatial diagrams).
Identifying the key components of territorial governance
in strategic spatial plan making (1st step) and plan
implementation (2nd step) including plan implementation
through projects (3rd step/AESOP)… (4th step).
Identifying the main supra-regional conditions, and
their combinations in strategic spatial planning.
Developing a systematic application of the theoretical
model in the context of land chance modelling &
developing operationalization tools to describe and
measure the components and their relationships.
Aim 2
Aim 3
Aim 4
5. Working definition of urban-regional development projects
Are area-specific and functionally-oriented projects derived directly
from the content of the strategic regional plan or prepared after the
publication of local development plans (e.g., at municipal level) which
have been elaborated in line with a strategic plan / regional interest:
Transportation Green-infrastructures Housing

15. Key findings
Research question 1:
What ARE THE REASONS for the
implementation of strategic spatial plans
through urban-regional development
projects?
Research question 2:
How are the TERRITORIAL
GOVERNANCE ARRANGEMENTS behind
the implementation of strategic plans
through urban-regional development
projects CHARACTERIZED?
1) Limited financial resources;
2) Scarce land resources;
3) Repurposing of outdated facilities (e.g.,
industrial, harbour);
4) Environmental preoccupations.
1) Collaborations among public entities
(e.g., between city and county
councils);
2) Collaborations between public
entities and private interest groups.
16. Key messages
1) Area-specific and functionally-oriented urban-regional development projects can often act
as catalysts for effective structural, socio-spatial and spatial- economic transformation;
2) Projects are seen as the most effective and least time consuming plan implementation
/ fast-track plan implementation modus operandi;
3) The majority of the urban-regional development projects are supported by funding
schemes from entities at supranational (e.g., European Union, EU), supraregional (e.g.,
national governments) or supralocal (e.g., regional agencies or regional governments) levels.
By revealing that the urban regions have been implementing plans through
projects, the paper contributes to the conference and knowledge which
highlights that regional planning could contribute to decision-making on how
spatial transformation can take shape within resource scarcity.
