Background of your team

tiPlease present your team briefly. Which linguistic and cultural perspectives does each member bring in? Which disciplinary backgrounds are present in your team?

  • Todd Carroll: Young adult student in IMLA (Freising, DE), originally from USA with an academic and professional background in civil engineering, transport systems, and wind energy. My personal interests include linguistics, architecture, gastronomy, cycling, and searching for adventure in everyday life.
  • Sara Szeker: Landscape architecture masters student in MATE (Budapest, Hungary). My personal interests include drawing, hiking, traveling and spending time in the nature.

  • Joanne Coughlan: I'm an architect and landscape architect living and working in Dublin, Ireland. I'm a sole practitioner but work collaboratively with other colleagues on a variety of projects from micro- to macro- scale. When I'm not worrying about climate change, I spend as much time as I can with our 6-year old, two dogs, and friends.

Your Landscape Democracy Manifestoes

Here you can add links to the manifestoes you have presented on April 24. Please make sure that the links are accessible. You can also add them directly here on the wiki, they need to be png or jpg format then.

Readings, concepts and definitions

  • Start: April 3, 2024
  • Due: July 2, 2024

While working in your group, please start to express your personal understanding of the relation of landscape and democracy in the form of a concept map with linking words or any other diagrammatic representation. Please make your maps very visual and not just verbal. Think critically about why one map differs from another.

The final product is a shared concept map that integrates the various understandings present within your team.

About concept mapping

Before starting the exercise you can read this article by Joseph D. Novak & Alberto J. Cañas about Theory Underlying Concept Maps and How to Construct and Use Them. This paper gives a good explanation of how concept maps are conceived and developed.

You can use any tool you like for producing your concept map. However, since the result needs to be submitted digitally we recommend the following open source software for producing your maps:

How to present your concept maps

  • Possible format: JPG (for wiki upload) or link to any other resource
  • We give you below a draft image gallery where you can add pictures of your map (in JPG or PNG format)
  • You can present your integrated understanding as one concept map or your present individual ones and the integrated one.
  • add as many additional materials as you need
