Through this course, participants will learn a set of design principles for creating public engagement practices necessary for building inclusive civic infrastructure in cities. Participants will also have the opportunity to review and practice strategies, techniques, and methods for engaging communities in demographically complex settings. https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/urban-studies-and-planning/11-312-engaging-community-models-and-methods-for-designers-and-planners-spring-2020 Spring 2020 McDowell, Ceasar 2021-11-12T13:56:53+05:00 11.312 en-US community public engagement civic design democracy collaboration design principles design briefs blog posts MIT OpenCourseWare https://ocw.mit.edu Content within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

For further information see https://ocw.mit.edu/terms/index.htm In this exploratory seminar, first-year undergraduate students learn the basic physics of nuclear energy and radiation, and learn to communicate their knowledge and perspective by writing a traditional Op-Ed piece. The technical content emphasizes the unique attributes and challenges of nuclear energy as a low-carbon solution as well as the peaceful applications of ionizing radiation to help humankind. The open-ended writing project combines personal creativity and technical knowledge to share important messages about science. The course employs blended learning, as students use the online course 22.011x, freely available on the MIT Open Learning Library, to learn the technical content, and meet together in person for the communication component, developing and polishing their Op-Eds. https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/nuclear-engineering/22-011-nuclear-engineering-science-systems-and-society-spring-2020 Spring 2020 Dang, Marina Short, Michael White, Anne E. 2021-04-29T18:00:37+05:00 22.011 en-US nuclear engineering nuclear power nuclear energy nuclear radiation Op-Ed ionizing radiation nuclear medicine fission energy scientific communication technical notes MIT OpenCourseWare https://ocw.mit.edu Content within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

For further information see https://ocw.mit.edu/terms/index.htm Communities have always wrestled with the multiple purposes of education: to train young people for careers, vocations, and college; to prepare them for their roles as citizens; to develop habits of reflective, ethical adults; and to create a common experience in a pluralistic society while meeting the needs of individual learners. As the world changes and grows more complex, returning to these important questions of purpose can help guide schools in their growth and strategic change. To ensure our schools are effective, we need to routinely reimagine what the high school graduate of the future will need to know and be able to do. The artifact that communicates these ideas is called a graduate profile. Making explicit the capabilities, competencies, knowledge, and attitudes for secondary school graduates, and inviting key stakeholders like students and community members to be engaged in the process, can help you and your school to focus your vision of success and drive school innovation efforts.

We learn not only why the physical world behaves the way it does, but also how to think with chemical intuition, which can’t be gained simply by observing the macroscopic world. This 2018 version of 3.091 by Jeffrey Grossman and the 2010 OCW version by Don Sadoway cover similar topics and both provide complete learning materials.
