Building Equity: Lessons in Sustainability from Community to College Campuses

2019-11-08 , Hernández, Diana

Buildings represent a middle ground between high-level and small-scale infrastructure. For this reason, they embody specific factors at the intersection of equity and opportunity. For example, recent studies show a correlation between energy efficiency upgrades, usually of interest only to the landlord; and the likelihood of tenant financial burdens and disconnection notices for energy bills. Correlations such as these at the building scale can help reveal otherwise unseen implications of transitions to less environmentally impactful energy technologies. The idea of “just transitions” will be explored in this context, as will comparative approaches from different segments of the US population from college campuses to community settings.

Disruptive Innovations in Higher Education: Implications for the 21st Century Campus

2013-10-21 , Morrison, James , Newstetter, Wendy

The educational landscape is undergoing considerable upheaval due in large part to emerging developments in educational technology and pedagogical approaches. The rapid availability of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) from major universities within the last year or so, the emergence of competency-based degree programs and evaluation systems, flipped classrooms, mobile learning, and the shifting paradigm from lecture- based towards project and inquiry-based instruction pose challenges to college and university planners as they prepare their campuses for the future. This interactive plenary session focuses on understanding these developments and exploring their implications for campus planning.

"Just a Perfect Day? Developing a Happiness Optimised Day Schedule."

2013-10-23 , Pokutta, Sebastian

With the day Reconstruction Method (DRM), Kahneman, Krueger, Schkade, Schwarz, and Stone (2004) introduced an important approach in subjective well-being (SWB) research to explore how people experience daily activities. A major unresolved question for laypeople and scholars alike resulting from this research, however, is the neglect of saturation and scarcity effects in this area of study. To fill this gap, we apply methods from optimisation research to the field of SWB. Combining utility functions with DRM data allows us to generate an optimal day schedule. It differs considerably from how people usually spend their time, whereby the distribution of activities is remarkably even. The results show how a paradigm shift away from a focus on increasing Gross Domestic Product towards greater well-being at the macrolevel could play out at the microlevel with potential consequence for how we might live our day-to-day lives.
