[SOLVED] Masdar Confliction of Privilege
(Masdar City) discuss certain issues that came up, climatisation, notions (and critique of sustainability), the role of technology, and here especially the question of crisis and survival as Gunnel put it, from and urban and also from an architectural point of view. What is smart about it, and what is traditional? What was promising, and why did it fail? You to account for the different actors and stakeholders involved? (I have enclosed some reading and book, but you should do much further research and find more sources) The essay should develop a consistent argument of central themes, ideas and subjects, and include a significant bibliography of primary and secondary literature. It should be approximately 3,500 words long and include a substantial set of 10 to 15 illustrations, specially produced or carefully selected, extensively discussed in the text and precisely referenced in a separate list. In the marking of the essay, substantial analysis and critical thinking will be valued more than mere description. In more detail the evaluation criteria, which ensure that all students across the different electives are assessed on the same basis, are as follows:30% Content: Depth of the research undertaken; Knowledge and understanding of the subject; Relevance of the material used; Clarity with which the information is presented (both text and images)30% Argument: Sophistication and depth of the analysis; Logic and robustness of the argument; Organisation and communication of ideas with evidence (both text and images) 20% Referencing: Extent to which the essay is supported by research evidence; Use of established referencing systems; Awareness precents (creative projects)20% Presentation: Clarity of writing; Correct use of English language; Graphical and presentational skills; Extent to which illustrations support the argument
