#WILDCITIES : urban agriculture report by creative.unionKarl Aussia
As more of our city space disappears under concrete, glass and steel, our needs for nature express themselves in more and more aspects of how we live today.
Encompassing points of views of placemakers, urban planners and entrepreneurs, #WILDCITIES takes a look at how motifs of nature are being used and applied in the urban environment. It investigates topics as broad as - nature as the modern symbol of premium living and leisure, how it enhances a sense and well-being, through to eco-innovation, food production and urban farming.

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.

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.

26. The Heidelberg Project is a Detroit-based
community organization designed to
improve the lives of people and
neighborhoods through art.
Inspire people to appreciate and use artistic expression to enrich their lives and to
improve the social and economic health of their greater community.
35. In New York’s hot summer months,
before the days of air conditioning, many
children escaped the heat by swimming
in the river—jumping off the piers or
using enclosed swimming areas known as
“floating baths.”
Swimming in the river was legal but it
was also dangerous.
Drowning occurred regularly, and kids
contracted diseases like polio and
typhoid that were transmitted by the raw
sewage that was dumped directly into
the rivers.
No Safe Place to Swim
36. By the 1930s, many forms of child labor
had been abolished, and the
unemployment of the Depression years
eliminated those jobs that children of poor
and working class families still held.
So children spent more time in school and
at play than they had in earlier times.
But in New York’s congested, tenement
neighborhoods, there was no safe place to
play.
The few parks and playgrounds that existed
were outdated and badly deteriorated. As a
result, many children played in the streets,
and in and around the rivers.
Social reformers blamed high disease,
illiteracy, and delinquency rates on the
shortage of public recreation spaces, and
worked to change the situation.
No Safe Place to Play
37. In 1934, Robert Moses, appointed Parks
Commissioner by Mayor Fiorello La
Guardia, proposed building large
swimming pools throughout each of the
city’s five boroughs.
In one fell swoop, the pools could
address economic, social, and hygiene
problems, and provide delightful
entertainment to kids and families on hot
summer days.
A Solution
38. New York City received federal funding to
construct eleven pools, each of which
cost nearly a million dollars.
The project also received funding from
the Work Progress Administration.
The pool projects created thousands of
jobs for unemployed New Yorkers who
worked in construction, provided
entertainment for the inauguration
ceremonies, and staffed the complexes
throughout the year.
Paying for Pools
39. The sites for the pools were carefully
chosen.
Pools were also located in neighborhoods
which would benefit the most from new
public recreation space.
In dense areas filled with crowded
tenements, the pools could bring
children off the streets.
Planning the Pools
40. The pools were sites for courtship,
spectacle, and display, but they were also
designed for exercise and education. The
pools offered swimming lessons as well
as races, diving competitions, and water
ballets.
With the pools and bathhouses designed
to serve off-season as basketball
gymnasiums and volleyball or handball
courts, the complexes served New
Yorkers all year round.
Making the Most of the Pools
41. The WPA pools have had their share of hard times, along with the city, but the
pools have endured. Eleven pools—all recently renovated—continue to serve
more than 950,000 visitors in the hot summer months.
The pools, all built in underserved or economically challenged areas, brought
relief from the punishing heat to many who had limited options for cooling off
or recreation.
