- Integrate learning from field experiences in the program curriculum with analytical/practical skills developed in academic training. Apply skill and experiences to "real world" problem in a project provided by a local or international development-focused organization. Reflective practice.
- Class Description:
- For the spring 2013 semester, we will focus on the three projects listed below: 1) Sustainability Indicators for Hawthorne Eco-Village (client: Project for Pride in Living). Students will develop and analyze metrics for assessing sustainability goals related to energy, water, health, and biodiversity for the Hawthorne Eco-Village. The Hawthorne Eco-Village is located in North Minneapolis and is a redeveloped neighborhood that includes a diversity of housing, and a strong focus on community health, environmental protection/restoration, and social interaction. 2) Climate Change Adaptation Study (client: City of Minneapolis). As a follow up to the City of Minneapolis' Climate Action Plan, students will work on a second phase of planning for climate change adaptation. Students will draw on data and research related to likely impacts of climate change on the City of Minneapolis. Students will conduct a preliminary analysis of potential impacts relative to extreme heat, urban forestry, energy infrastructure, water supply/quality, and stormwater. In addition, students will gather information from City staff related to potential risks and vulnerabilities associated with climate change. 3) Framework for Sustainable Food Production and Distribution (client: UMN Healthy Foods, Healthy Lives Institute). Students will identify and explore factors that contribute to a sustainable urban food production and distribution system, such as soil productivity/contamination, transportation modes/routes, equitable healthy food access, access to processing facilities, and land availability. The intent is to develop a framework of critical factors that can be assessed to make optimal decisions about the location of food production and processing in urban areas. Minnesota Brownfields and the City of Minneapolis will also be involved in the project. In addition to work on these projects, I require some readings throughout the semester to facilitate class discussions and ensure a basic level of knowledge in sustainability. In addition, periodic written reflections are required. Several guest speakers will be invited to the class to highlight various aspects of sustainability practice in the public, private, and non-profit sectors. Students will be assigned to one of the projects above based on their preferences, with the intent to assign students to either their first or second choice project.
