Universities want placements to help students develop skills in areas like employability, research, cultural awareness, and social responsibility. They offer a variety of domestic and international placement types and assess placements through modules or programs. Successful placement management involves strategic alignment of tasks, reflective learning, mentor support, and documentation of student work. Host organizations benefit from student contributions like materials creation and intellectual engagement with academic topics, while students gain experience applying their learning.Heritage for Business - Profession Jonathan Morris

This document summarizes a presentation given at the British Sociological Association annual conference on the future of work and employment in Britain under a zero carbon scenario. It discusses the Zero Carbon Britain report which proposes transitioning the UK to net zero carbon emissions by 2030 using currently available renewable technology. This would require powering down energy demand by 60% while powering up renewable energy sources. The presentation provides a critical analysis of the jobs that would be created and lost under such a transition, and how they differ in terms of factors like pay, security and gender impacts. It also analyzes how current UK workforce and climate change reports address or fail to address this zero carbon future of work.Dr. Pat Simpson - Prince Peter Kropotkin: Anarchism, eugenics and the utopian...

Dr Neil Mycroft - Never mind my jet-pack, where’s my four-legged chicken?University of Hertfordshire
This document discusses the concept of technological utopianism and futuristic predictions. It references a letter from a woman who suggested developing a four-legged chicken, as well as efforts in the early 20th century to grow chicken parts separately. The document notes that while technological prediction is difficult, technological dreaming can be foolhardy. It questions what futuristic predictions may no longer seem plausible given technological progress.Dr Ian Waites - A paradise, what an idea! The postwar council estate and ‘Ut...

The document discusses the concept of postwar housing utopias in the UK and criticisms that arose. It summarizes views that the modernist housing complexes of the 1950s-70s that aimed to provide cheap housing instead resulted in soulless towers that lacked community and abolished individual identity. Residents ultimately rejected these utopias and preferred traditional housing forms like cottages and terraced houses that supported private virtues and community.Eva Sopeoglou - Utopia ‘outside’: exploring architectural approaches
This document discusses architectural approaches that explore the relationship between indoor and outdoor environments. It examines works by Bernard Rudofsky, including his writings on architecture without architects as well as several of his building designs. It also reviews projects by Cedric Price, including the Fun Palace, Poteries Thinkbelt, and Generator. Finally, it discusses open-air schools, outdoor kindergartens, and living/working outdoors, concluding with comments on the BMW Guggenheim Lab from 2012-2013.
Mr. David Ames: Letchworth - the first garden city utopia
The document summarizes the history and principles of the Garden City movement, using Letchworth Garden City in England as a case study. It describes how Ebenezer Howard envisioned planned cities that combined the advantages of town and country living. Letchworth was the first Garden City, established in 1903. While it initially provided healthy housing and communities for workers, it later became dominated by the middle class. Today, The Heritage Foundation continues to steward the land based on Garden City principles of community ownership, high-quality design, and shared prosperity.

This document discusses the history of towns in Britain from Roman times to the medieval period. It provides definitions of what constitutes a town and examines the layout, features, and development of towns over time. Key points covered include the growth of towns during Roman occupation, the revival of towns in the Anglo-Saxon and medieval periods, and the impact of events like the Black Death on urban populations. Archaeological evidence is presented showing the expansion and changing pottery distributions in example towns like Ashwell, Nayland, and Winchelsea over the centuries.Alex Anthony-Lewczuk: Re-evaluating DUNE - Ecological and Theological Dystopias?

This document contains excerpts from Frank Herbert's novel Dune discussing ecological, philosophical, and theological themes. It includes quotes from characters discussing the balance of taking and giving forces within humans, how technology can be indistinguishable from magic, facing one's fears, and the need for care in beginning any process to ensure correct balances. The excerpts explore ideas around survival within finite systems, the use and effects of violence, and humanity's relationship with the environment.Dr Susan Parham - Utopias, food and the radical tradition
This document discusses the history of utopian ideas related to food production and consumption from the 19th century onward. Many utopian communities and proposals placed food and collective food systems at their center. Examples mentioned include Fourier's Phalanx communities in the US, Godin's Familistere in France with communal kitchens, and material feminists' proposals to socialize domestic work including food preparation. Garden cities like Letchworth also experimented with communal kitchens. The document questions how contemporary approaches can rediscover cooperative principles around food from these radical utopian traditions.

Milton Keynes or Civilia? Real and imagined utopias of the Pop period. discusses two utopian visions for urban planning - Milton Keynes, a new town outside London built in the 1960s-70s, and Civilia, an unbuilt proposal from the same era. It compares their ideals of creating self-contained communities with generous green space to the suburban sprawl that often resulted from post-war development. The document also reflects on the tension between prioritizing efficient land use over garden cities' vision of blending town and country living.The Marketor’s Tale - Between Mammon and Scholarship? / David Ross Brennan

This document discusses the tension marketing scholars face between pursuing academic achievement and ensuring their research is relevant to business needs. A survey found most marketing scholars believe their research is moderately or highly relevant to management, but practitioners find academic journals and research less useful than other sources. The document also presents stereotypes of different types of marketing professors and critiques the perceived lack of practical impact of much marketing research. It concludes by metaphorically describing marketing scholars as "couch dwellers" who are uncomfortable and unloved within both the wider academy and business world.The Portal between the Virtual and Real in Product Design / Julien Lindley
The Portal between the Virtual and Real in Product Design / Julien LindleyUniversity of Hertfordshire
The document discusses the changing relationship between the digital and physical worlds in product design. It notes that older students followed a process from physical to digital, while newer "digital native" students go from digital to physical. This can result in unrealistic designs that ignore physical constraints. The document questions whether educators should encourage digital natives to take a more traditional, hands-on approach or explore new design processes, and whether this will impact education standards.The Intra-space between the Model and the Real Object / Silvio Carta
The document discusses the gap between models and real objects. It notes that historically, the world was viewed as either ineffable perfection, a measurable entity under modern science, or data flows in computing. However, there is always a gap between determinate models and the indeterminate nature of reality. Big data allows us to better understand this hidden reality in the space between models and the real world.
The Impossibility of Journalism / Philip Cowan
This document discusses the impossibility of defining journalism. It argues that journalism is necessarily rhetorical as it involves selection, prioritization, interpretation and simplification of information. While some criticize journalism as propaganda for elites, the document counters that media is too diverse to serve a single function and that dedicated journalists pursue anti-establishment stories. The conclusion is that journalism cannot be fully authoritative or comprehensive, as trying to control and define it strictly would transform it into propaganda. Journalism will survive through our basic human desire to understand the world around us.
