Rationale: Why is this case study interesting?

  • Please summarise:- e.g. Design Innovation? Planning Exemplar? Theoretical Insights? Lessons learned from its failure? [It doesn’t have to have been successful]

The case study is the subject of my final project as a student. The methodology is of interdisciplinary analysis made on the area concerning the natural, social, economical, historical, cultural aspects, which, after providing an educated understanding of these aspect, offers the possibility of assessing the different landscapes of the area. All the analysis are done by my self and my colleague. There for there might be some oversights when it comes to the subtlety of the, let's say, economical or social aspects.

  • Think about it from the view of another educator/student in a different country. Why should I use this case study in my teaching/education?

Since we choose the subject of our case study we are very keen on showing how interesting and unique are these landscapes. that might make us, despite our best efforts, a bit subjective. I think that a fresh perspective might show some issues that we mist when assessing the landscape.
