- John Forester argued that planners need to be aware of power dynamics and how information is used within the planning process. He outlined five perspectives on how planners can approach the use of information: technician, incremental pragmatist, liberal advocate, structuralist, and progressive. The progressive perspective calls for planners to fulfill their mandate for a democratic process and empower communities.
- Allan Jacobs reflected on his experiences as the planning director of San Francisco between 1967-1974. He emphasized the importance of qualified, dedicated planners and advocated for bottom-up, responsive planning that utilizes local resources and understands community needs.
- Norman Krumholz discussed how effective equity planning was accomplished in Cleveland between 1969-1979

This presentation is a compilation of selected topics on the history of urbanization, urban and regional planning theories, urban thinkers and their contributes, concepts, bases of land use, applicability to the Philippine setting, and a briefer of urban design elements.
An urban area is characterized by higher population density and vast human features in comparison to areas surrounding it. Urban areas may be cities, towns or conurbations, but the term is not commonly extended to rural settlements such as villages. Any portion of earthâs surface where physical conditions are homogeneous can be considered as a Region in geographic sense, ranging from a single feature region to compage, depending on the
criteria used for delineation. In practice, a prefix is added to highlight the attributes on which the region has been defined, for example, agriculture region, resource region, city region, planning region.
All the daily activities of human beings are carried out on land. Proper organization of these activities i.e. planning will help the human being in leading a richer and fuller life in livable surroundings or environment. "Planning" means the scientific, aesthetic, and orderly disposition of land, resources, facilities and services with a view to securing the physical, economic and social efficiency, health and well-being of urban and rural communities.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Â
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.

(practical an visible goal)

resource (advocacy planning)

10. âVictory today, over the wrong thing in the wrong place, does not ensure
that the same battle will not have to be fought tomorrow or the next day,
.....................,city planners may have a hard time knowing when they have
been successful, it is hard to know what constituted a good batting
average......in many cities, success is measured by what happens, by what
gets done, by what is accomplished..... we are accustom to think that way,
BUT sometimes it is better to measure success by measure what does not
happen"..............Allan B. Jacobs - Making city planning work (1978)
