Abstract:

In the past several years, History instructors have increasingly experimented with assignment or project design that moves beyond the confines of the traditional research essay. The resulting assignments are often referred to as “un-essays”— projects purposefully designed to empower students to take an active role in shaping their own research topics and enable them to present their research in ways other than the more conventional paper format. Requiring students to conduct rigorous research, marshal evidence in support of larger claims, and make intentional decisions about organization and a

Abstract:

Scientific research projects competitions for high school students have been held by TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey) since 1969. Whereas only projects on science were taken into the scope of competition for long years, the projects appropriate to the interdisciplinary approach such as social sciences projects and values education have been started to be included beside science broadening the range since 2000s. In projects, it has been aimed to encourage students studying at high school grade for carrying out studies on basic, social and applied sciences, d

Abstract:

A key challenge in project management is to understand to which extent the dynamic interactions between the different project people—through formal and informal networks of collaboration that temporarily emerge across a project´s lifecycle—throughout all the phases of a project lifecycle, influence a project’s outcome. This challenge has been a growing concern to organizations that deliver projects, due their huge impact in economic, environmental, and social sustainability. In this work, a heuristic two-part model, supported with three scientific fields—project management, risk management, an

The need for effective .project planning in the farmework of macro planning has always been very strong in Pakistan as projects form the basis of development. Without the successful execution of projects, it is unlikely that development plans could be implemented effectively. In Pakistan an elaborate machinery for the planning of development projects exists but its prformance has been far from satisfactory. If one has to write the porject history of Pakistan, one wiII come across numerous examples of projects that have failed due to the ineffecient functioning of this machinery. Needless to sa

The definition of the concept of a «Super Combine» as a production line of the macro-regional level, designed to produce record volumes of a product, is given. The concept refers, on the one hand, to the field of science, i.e. economic geography, and, on the other hand, to the field of technique (production technology). It was first introduced by the author during the development of the project «New Angarstroy: Baikal-Amur Metallurgical Super Combine».

The purpose of this study is to examine the use of story maps in increasing sustainable Geography awareness among Geography teachers. The advent of story maps has altered the current Geography education in the digital era. ArcGIS story maps are a type of user-friendly geospatial technology renewal. This story map is believed capable of helping students learn Geography more independently, transforming Geography education. This belief should be reinforced by implementing story maps on their own Geography teachers, who have low Geography literacy rates in general. This action research involved 67

Geographical descriptions and geographical comparisons provide a basis for understanding the key features of a place. These classical approaches, revealing the typical and the unique, make it possible to discover the «formula of the place», to understand the rational directions of the development of the territory. Often, territorial development projects are based not on marketing and technical calculations, but on a geographic idea. In this case, we are dealing with conceptual geography, which can significantly change the priorities of society’s development in the future. Conceptual geography

Problematic in common understandings of planning and policy implementation concerning sustainability are the dualisms between physical-social spaces and between rationality-contingency.

Vacant and abandoned industrial sites are present in every state, but the blight associated with brownfields is worst in Americas rustbelt, the chain of once great industrial cites and towns stretching along historic canals and rail lines from Balt

Since the declining phase of the Modem Movement, the geography of disciplinary power has considerably changed and there has been an increasing loss of social significance for architecture. However, urban design, seen as a “mode” of architecture, rather than as a discipline in itself, has still a primary role to play against this trend, for there are instances and places where urban form, more than feasibility studies, or planning programmes, calls for attention. Such a new role for the discipline can be found in a new approach by which architecture is foremost seen as the art of environmental

Abstract:

This report contains descriptions of 13 family planning (FP) projects recently implemented in Bangladesh. The results in terms of the contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) are analyzed to investigate the degree to which improved FP service delivery in Bangladesh can increase contraceptive use in the present status of demand, investigate the programmatic factors most associated with increased prevalence, and make these projects more widely known. Criteria for inclusion included coverage of a geographic area where household distribution of contraceptive supplies was available, and where at least o

Abstract:

The King Abdulaziz Project for Public Transport in Riyadh city is one of the world’s largest urban transit systems being developed. The project aims to meet the demands of the city’s growing urban population while reducing traffic congestion, heavy private car dependence and air pollution. The performance of any public transport system largely depends on its accessibility. Therefore, this study evaluates the populations’ access to Riyadh’s public transport stations using network analysis tools based on geographic information systems.

Abstract:

As all aspects of the American workplace become automated or digitally enhanced to some degree, K12 educators have an increasing responsibility to help their students acquire the technical skills necessary to organize and interpret information. Increasingly, this is done through Geographic Information Systems (GIS), especially in careers related to transportation and logistics. The Center for International Trade & Transportation (CITT) at CSU Long Beach has developed this K12 Special Investigation Project to introduce ArcGIS StoryMaps, an engaging, accessible and sophisticated web-based GI

Abstract:

Citizen science and food is part of a new programme of work to explore how we can involve the communities we serve when building the evidence-base on which policy decisions are made. Citizen science is an approach that can provide high volumes of data with a wide geographic spread. It is relatively quick to deploy and allows access to evidence we would ordinarily have difficulty collating. This methodology has been endorsed by the European Commission for Research, Science and Innovation. There is no one size fits all definition, but citizen science projects involves engaging with communities a

Abstract:

This report documents the development of an integrated hydrodynamic and ecological model to test assumptions about island resilience. Swan Island, a 25-acre island in Chesapeake Bay, Maryland, was used as a case study. An interagency, interdisciplinary team of scientists and engineers came together in a series of workshops to develop a simplified resilience model to examine the ability of islands to reduce waves and erosion and the impacts to nearby habitats and shorelines. This report describes the model development process and the results from this first key step: model conceptualization. Th

Full text

Abstract:

Executive Order 13112 requires federal agencies to report invasive species costs to the National Invasive Species Counsel (NISC) annually. NISC then reports to Congress to increase awareness of invasive species and encourage inter-agency cooperation. Since 2005, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has provided an annual estimate for the Civil Works (CW) business lines. Traditionally, USACE estimates have been informed by broad assumptions, as many invasive species costs are not itemized. This study sought to develop a method to improve these estimates. A demonstration analysis was conducted
