1060 04 recap prompt

please read prompt below and post your response by end of day monday, december 6

as an introductory course to future professionals in the design and construction fields, coa 1060 had two primary goals:

  • to foster an awareness of the city, of citizenship, and of public space;
  • to introduce the three coa undergraduate programs.

as you review the course lecture schedule and your lecture and reading notes in preparation for the final friday, we would like you to think about, and respond to, the following three prompts:


1. the first half of the course gave an introduction to a broad range of issues that influence the quality of life in american cities: from history and social/political/economic issues, to the players, procedures, and policies that influence its planning, development, design and construction.

looking back over the range of material covered by the host of invited speakers, do you think that you are better informed, or perhaps, somewhat more aware of the complex issues that play out in cities, and in atlanta, in particular? if so, how?

2. the second half of the course invited program directors and faculty members to introduce the programs and their related disciplines and professions.

do you think that the material delivered in these sessions gave you a flavor of the three programs (and their related disciplines and professions)? do you also have a sense of the way in which they overlap and integrate? did the sessions whet your appetite to seek out further information? did they change, or clarify, your perceptions about any, or all, of the three programs/disciplines/professions?

3. identify both the lecture(s) and the reading(s) that you found most provocative (opened your eyes to another way of looking at the world, made you think/rethink an issue, made you want to find out more about a set of issues, etc.)
