Turystyka zrównoważona oraz Challenge Based Learning (CBL) z wykorzystaniem czatu GPT oczami studentów Politechniki Łódzkiej w kontekście uniwersytetu ECIU
No full text"Niniejszy artykuł porusza zagadnienia wpływające na zwiększenie zaangażowania studenta w proces uczenia się języka angielskiego oraz w działania proekologiczne poza uczelnią. Uczenie (się) poprzez wyzwania CBL (ang. Challenge Based Learning) to innowacyjne podejście edukacyjne, które angażuje studentów poprzez rozwiązywanie rzeczywistych problemów. W tekście omawiane są główne założenia CBL oraz sposoby wykorzystania zagadnienia zrównoważonej turystyki w agendzie na rzecz zrównoważonego rozwoju 2030 SDGs (ang. Sustainable Development Goals). Turystyka zrównoważona odgrywa kluczową rolę w osiąganiu celów zrównoważonego rozwoju oraz minimalizowaniu negatywnego wpływu na środowisko i społeczności lokalne. Poprzez włączenie tematu turystyki zrównoważonej do programu zajęć studenci zdobywają wiedzę na temat jej zasad i poznają jej miejsce wśród innych celów zrównoważonego rozwoju. W artykule przedstawione zostały sposoby wykorzystania sztucznej inteligencji, na przykładzie czatu GPT, jako wsparcia nauczyciela w prowadzeniu zajęć. Autorka zaprezentowała opinie studentów związane z tematyką zajęć oraz z techniką CBL, jak również prototypy rozwiązywania problemów wynikających z nieprzestrzegania zasad turystyki zrównoważonej.
The Causes and Consequences of School Closures in Inner-City Calgary
No full textDuring the early decades of the 2000s, eleven schools closed in Calgary’s established neighbourhoods, due to declining enrolment or outdated infrastructure. The loss of a school is often devastating to a community and can lead to further population decline. A research project was commissioned by the government to investigate the causes and consequences of school closures and to make recommendations, particularly related to urban form, to address the issues. Analysis of the 500 sq km study area included historic evolution of urban form, schools mapping and data analysis, development of a typology of school buildings and grounds, mapping of school inter-relationships and closures, review of school board practices and policies, and precedent studies. A case study of the catchment area of one high school included historic evolution of urban form factors, mapping of the network of feeder schools, analysis of neighbourhood and schools socio-demographics, and a review of school program changes. The causes of school closures relate to a combination of city development processes, neighbourhood lifecycles, neighbourhood types, infill and densification processes, housing types, school sizes and building types, socio-demographic factors influencing school choice, and school board policies, and the consequences affect neighbourhoods and communities
Gender Walks in the City: An Exploratory Study on Gender-Responsive Urban Planning
No full textThis research investigates gender walks as a possible method for knowledge-gathering in urban planning and design processes. It is positioned within the field of gender-sensitive design, which aims to tackle gender inequalities in cities. This project ascertains the complexity of intersectional gender-aware design and therefore looks to utilise the potential of walking – in its simplicity and effectiveness – as a responding strategy. A comparison of three existing exploratory walk practices and insights gained from these walks outlines the criteria for the initial design of our walking audit method. The potential and limitations are tested through its implementation, the analysis of the findings and the development of design responses with participants. The theoretical knowledge gained on gender-aware planning and the complexity of the issue from both urban design and sociological perspectives provide support and critique for the ongoing City Centre Transformation Programme, to optimise public spaces for women’s inclusion, safety and enjoyment
Community regeneration performance assessment based on social network analysis – Taking Jialingqiao Xicun Community, Chongqing Municipality for example
No full textRestricted by the times and economic conditions, public spaces of old communities have problems, such as low utilization and uneven resource distribution. Because of these problems, resident activities and communication are limited and residents lack the sense of belonging to the community. This necessitates the establishment of activity spaces suitable for community communication through the regeneration of old communities. Activity spaces of this kind can help re-establish residents’ social connections. This paper aims at assessing the efficacy of residential area regeneration.
Social network analysis is used to build the community public space network and the resident daily behavior and activity network, respectively. Meanwhile, the aforesaid two networks are comparatively analyzed from the perspective of the network structure and influence of node, and considering four parameters (density, small world density, node betweenness centrality, and structural hole) as well as its derivative indexes. Taking existing communities for a case analysis, this paper quantitatively assesses and compares the public spaces of these communities, finding that the inconsistency between the public space network and the resident activity network is attributable to elements, such as quality of space, space accessibility and node combination. On that basis, strategies for optimization of spatial design are proposed
To solve the problem of low utilization of space under viaduct by sharing strategy
No full textUrban streets have undergone three major transformations in the last 350 years, corresponding to three characteristics: visual aesthetics and development, transportation infrastructure and efficiency, shared streets. Many of the city's basic elements like rivers, streets, viaducts play a crucial role in the city. The convergence of elements gives the site its uniqueness and shapes the living behaviour of its occupants. As a common urban element in the city, viaduct has a great influence on the urban spatial form. However, the space under the viaduct in China is lack of effective use and reasonable planning and difficult to pass efficiently.
This paper will analyse and summarise the adaptive renewal design of the space under the viaduct based on the urban morphological characteristics, aiming at the water landscape and space idle problems of the space under the viaduct at the intersection of Siping Road and Zhongshan North Second Road in Shanghai.
Based on the time-segment investigation and analysis of the space under viaduct at the intersection of Siping Road and Zhongshan North Second Road in Shanghai, various cases of space renewal under viaduct in foreign countries are specifically analysed for different problems and the activation direction and sharing strategy suitable for the characteristics of urban space in China are summarized by using typology method.
The corresponding sharing strategies are concluded from the perspectives of transportation sharing, landscape sharing, activity sharing and space sharing. The sharing tendency under the influence of different urban elements will also be summarized. Based on the existing practical experience and field research, this paper summarizes the space under the viaduct under the influence of different urban elements and proposes several feasible and easy to promote teaching strategies to contribute to the shared renewal of urban street space under the viaduct

No full textResearch on Resilient Strategies for Urban Redevelopment in Rail Station Areas
No full textUrban redevelopment process is facing the issue of lacking reserved land, unmatched land property, complex property rights and the planning lag which slow the process of urban renewal. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce resilient strategies at the beginning of urban development to improve the adaptability of cities so as to deal with the uncertainty of future urban redevelopment and establish a sustainable urban renewal mechanism. This paper takes the rail station areas as the scope of study and starts from three aspects: the resilient operating mechanism, the resilient land policy and the resilient evaluation mechanism. A series of resilient development strategies for rail station areas such as planned development unit development (PUD), performance-based planning, incentive zoning, transfer of development rights (TDR), white site and reserved site are systematically summarized. It also demonstrates how resilience strategies can guide the urban redevelopment of rail station areas in the context of case studies such as Englewood Station, Otemachi area and Hibarigaoka Station
The city of entertainment as an experimentation field for improving the daily public space
No full textThe article aims to demonstrate the value of reflection on campsite as urban laboratories. The development of the open-air tourism market has modified these settlement systems, diverting them towards integrated systems of natural and built elements. Although living on holiday represents a particular form of living, the temporality of the experience does not reduce its study value. It amplifies the market needs of citizens' desires and represents a focal case study. The accommodation facilities in the open air represent an experimental application of living in nature. The settlement system concluded in a space defined by dimensions and rules, allows a virtuous design of the open space to improve the settlement by the relationship man/nature. The aggregative space acquires a predominant value, as the basis of the anthropic landscape characterizing the accommodation itself. The reflections on the reality of outdoor tourism can be immediatly applied in a seemingly distant field: refugee camps and temporary cities. These share with the campsite the elements that make up the general structure of the settlements, renouncing the construction of the context in favour of the pragmatic nature of the intervention. The construction of the vacuum of campsite can represent an improvement revision also of emergencies
