Agenda:
== Seminar Context + Objectives ==
 
Ellen Fetzer introduced the objectives of the seminar. For the first time in human history, the earth’s population became
more urban than rural, that turn was reached on May 23rd 2007. The most rapid urbanisation process are expected for China and Africa within the next decades.  Urban Landscape is regarded as a concept that supports integrative approaches beyond sectoral boundaries. Landscape architecture is only one of many players in the urban landscape. However, this seminar is not meant to be interdisciplinary because it addresses landscape architects. Particularly, the seminar will look at the role of landscape architecture in the context of making urban landscapes more sustainable and liveable. From the perspective of landscape architecture urban landscape is the sum total of the unbuilt land within and around our towns. The method applied in this seminar is case study analysis and comparison.
 
'''After this seminar participants should …'''
 
*Know how to use the case study method
*Have some profound knowledge of LA projects
*Have an idea of what influences landscape architecture in the urban context
*Have looked beyond your national perspective

== Working Method ==
# Find a landscape architecture project that you want to analyse and document following the [[LE:NOTRE Mundus Case Study Template]].
# Find people with related themes by localising your case study on the [[urban landscapes topic map]]. This was done during the first session with all participants. Those who did not attend can still relate their themes on the thematic case study list.
# Give a first draft description of your case study before 15th of November
# Discuss your case studies in thematic small groups (this process will be supervised by the tutors), derive some core questions.
# Your output will be both a case study and a collaborative essay of your small group.

Recently, an encyclopedia tool has been added to the website where the articles of this seminar would fit in very well.
