This document provides information about a permaculture design course offered at Otago Polytechnic in Dunedin, New Zealand. The course introduces students to permaculture design principles and methods of ecology to lead students in developing long-term sustainable systems for homes and work environments. The 16 sessions over 15 weeks cover topics like permaculture principles, site analysis, plant cultivation techniques, and developing a permaculture design plan. Students will analyze a site, create a permaculture plan, and present their final design. The course costs $462.55 NZD and takes place at the Otago Polytechnic campus.
2012 CENTURY 21 Real Estate Global Conference AgendaCENTURY 21
The document advertises the CENTURY 21 Global Conference taking place from March 2-6, 2012 in New Orleans. The conference will include seminars, training sessions, and networking events to help real estate professionals take their business to the next level. Attendees can enjoy the local cuisine like po-boys and beignets. The tentative agenda outlines the daily schedule, which includes registration, learning sessions, an expo, awards ceremonies, and receptions throughout the conference.
The document describes Aldo Cibic's workshop titled "The green village on the edge of the city" held in November 2009 at the Politecnico di Milano. It outlines an approach to selecting a target group of weekend farmers, providing them temporary housing, and arranging the space. The goal is to create a poetic environment that identifies basic needs for cabins, stimulates social interaction and outdoor activities, and integrates contemporary structures into a natural setting.
The document discusses strategies for creating destinations where people want to be through place branding and exceptional customer experiences. It provides examples of projects that delivered on this promise, such as transforming a sterile site into a community hub (Kaleidoscope) and leveraging the name power of an iconic brand (OZ). The changing consumer landscape and rise of social media are also addressed as both a challenge and opportunity to engage customers in new ways.

This document outlines an assessment for a communication skills course, requiring students to demonstrate practical communication abilities. It includes instructions for three tasks: following oral instructions to create cyanotypes, writing instructions for the cyanotype process, and working in a team to make a herbal balm. Students will be observed and evaluated on cooperating with others, various communication techniques, and completing tasks as assigned. The assessment is worth half of the course grade and students must achieve a minimum 50% score to pass.
This document discusses teams and teamwork. It defines what groups and teams are, and explains that teams work together to achieve specific goals. The document outlines benefits of working in teams such as learning different perspectives and gaining interpersonal skills. It provides tips for effective teamwork, including treating others with respect, encouraging discussion, and keeping communication clear. It also describes common roles in teams such as leaders, materials managers, documenters, and timekeepers. Finally, it presents two exercises for teams to practice their communication and problem-solving skills.

Active listening is an important communication skill that involves fully focusing on the speaker and their message. It is more than just hearing - it requires making a conscious effort to understand the whole message and provide feedback. There are several key active listening skills, including paying full attention to the speaker, showing engagement through body language and gestures, asking questions to clarify points, deferring judgment until the speaker is finished, and responding respectfully. Mastering these skills can greatly improve communication and information retention.

IceBreakers are small candies or snacks that are often used to help break the ice and get conversations started at social gatherings or events. They provide something for people to hold and munch on as introductions are made or initial small talk occurs. IceBreakers come in a variety of flavors and shapes to suit different tastes and preferences.
The document discusses the major characteristics of 19th century influences on landscape horticulture. It describes the evolution of the Gardenesque style from Humphry Repton's Picturesque style in the 1820s. Key figures like John and Jane Loudon popularized gardening for the emerging middle class. Their eclectic style involved small landscapes with unusual exotic plants. New trends included carpet bedding, topiary, natural woodland gardens, and the growth of public parks.
