Group Wiki and Presentation URBD4003

Assessment 3: Group Wiki and Presentation

The Task (from the Learning Guide):

As a group, develop a compelling argument to justify the choices you made in modelling the future of Pyrmont Peninsula. In your wiki you should:

1. Identify and explain the different variables in the model.


2. Explain and justify your interpretation of the future city in your model, using the principles of sustainable urban development.

3. Relate your model to:
   
   
   
   1. the internal diversity of Pyrmont peninsula; and,
   
   
   2. the wider politics of sustainable urban development in Australia and beyond.
   
   
   
   

Possible Wiki Templates

Two possible ways to structure your wiki, which will help you to both distribute the writing amongst the group and present a coherent argument are:

1. the principles of sustainable urban development (theoretical)


2. the variables used in the Modelling Future Pyrmont model (applied)

In both cases you are working towards what the group considers to be the best outcome from the politics of sustainable urban development for the Pyrmont Peninsula in 20 years time.

1. i) Start from the pillars of sustainable urban development: Introduction

Economic Social Environmental Conclusion

1. ii) Start from the variables used in the model: Introduction

Height
Density
Residential vs Commercial Green
Conclusion

NB: These are just suggestions. Any reasonable structure that supports your argument is permissible (and in some cases, encouraged).
