Sustainable Design - Ecology, Culture and Human Built Worlds

Hej!

We have booked room 12:130 at Blåsenhus for the workshop next wednesday February 1^st at 17.15.

Please confirm that you will come to the workshop by sending an e-mail to sdesign@csduppsala.uu.se

If you decide to attend, you need to bring the object you chose. The workshop exercises are based on it.

As a reminder, since this is an online-distance course, workshops are not compulsory, and you can follow them online. A video with instructions will be uploaded 2 days after each workshop in the course site.

However, e-meetings are mandatory and you can check the updated schedule for the dates.

Hope to see some of you next wednesday!

On the left you will find an updated schedule with dates for the first workshop and first mandatory electronic meeting.

If you will not be able to attend the workshop in person, please let us know several days in advance. We will make the workshop available to you online and have supplementary tasks.

 

In your emails you can now locate your login information so that you will be able to access the course website and get started.
Part 1 of Module 1 is now loaded. Take some time to get used to the webpage and the layout. Follow any posted instructions and note upcoming deadlines.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tomorrow wednesday the 25th is the big day for your design projects! We are very excited about it, and we hope you are as well!

Here is the information that we gave you at the workshop last week, and which is what still counts.

* The venue is the entrance hall of Blåsenhus.
* The presentation showcases shall be up and ready at 12.00. You are responsible for bringing your cardboard walls to Blåsenhus.
* The fair starts at 13.30 and ends at 16.00. During this time you are responsible for having somebody at your showcase, ready to present your projects for the visitors and fellow students.
* Because we have very little space, we can’t be standing there everybody at the same time. So you also have the responsibility to split the time between each other, and make sure you have no more than 2-3 people by your showcase at the same time.
* If you will be using a computer, charge your battery in advance and don’t count on having access to a plug.
* Be prepared to tell about your project in a short and interesting pitch. You will probably not have a lot of time with every visitor, so keep it short and simple, but also be able to dig deeper if somebody shows great interest.

With that said we wish you all good luck and are looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

We are sorry it took us a long time, but the complementary assignment for the project seminars are finally available here on the course portal. Please observe that there is one assignment for both seminars, but depending on if you missed one or two, you do either half of it or the whole assignment. Further instructions are in the assignment.

We’ve also put up a complementary assignment for the project presentations tomorrow, so if you know now that you will not be able to attend at all tomorrow, you can do the assignment instead. We will take attendance tomorrow at the project fair.

Deadline for the assignments is Friday the 3rd of June, if you want to be sure to have your credits before the summer. If you send it in after that, we can’t guarantee that you will get your credits before the summer.

If you are not sure whether you have missed a mandatory class or not, just e-mail us and we will have a look at it. We will also e-mail those of you who have classes to make up for during this week.

Good luck!

There has been a last minute change of the location for tonight’s workshop. We will still be in Geocentrum, but in Småland classroom and not in Norrland I & II.

So: location for tonight is Småland in Geocentrum! It is on the second floor, upstairs from Geotryckeriet.
