Abstract:
Through reflection from interviews, relevant literature and the author’s personal experience, this research develops frameworks that assist in understanding the complex nature of community development practice. Successful community development practitioners are interviewed using experiential learning methodology, to investigate what they call good practice whilst simultaneously endeavouring to improve their practice. The emphasis is upon understanding micro work, the poorly documented though essential element of engagement.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the position of hands-on building practices in architectural education by focusing on METU Summer Construction Practices (ARCH190), which has been conducted in the rural sites of Turkey since 1958. It is believed that the summer construction practice is a tool of education to acquire knowledge of architecture by building 1-to-1 scale constructions. METU Summer Construction Practices are examined by asking the questions of what is learned and how is learned in order to understand both the content and objectives and also the pedagogic strategies, learning methods of the summ

Abstract:
Residential green building is gaining increased attention around the United States. Interviews with five production home builders from different markets in the western United States explore green building practices among production builders. Examination of what production builders are doing that is considered green, motivations for building green and advantages of green homes helps to inform planners of measures that can be taken to encourage the growth of green building in home construction.

Abstract:
This thesis provides a way forward for a green construction in Malaysia in exploring the potential of green-oriented procurement of building projects in the Malaysian construction industry. The research outcomes contribute to knowledge and practice by not only developing a green-oriented procurement model for use as a planning tool, but also triggering an increased awareness of project teams and practitioners of the need for greener construction.
