Green Relationship

Imad, Fadel 01 May 2014 (has links)
Green Relationship is a design solution attempting to raise awareness toward the environment and reduce consumerism. Waste generation and pollution have become major concerns of many governments, municipalities, organizations and individuals around the world since they are affecting human wellbeing and the environment. As an MFA student with VCUQatar, I chose to use design to contribute in protecting the environment hoping to make a difference in life. The thesis includes a research and a design component. The research explores the recycling programs and facilities in Qatar, the governmental and private sector actions toward waste generation and collection, as well as precedent solutions applied around the world. Furthermore, it includes a survey on recycling to gather and analyze the community’s feed back in order to come up with a solution that aims to change people’s behavior toward waste generation and to promote green lifestyle. The design component defines the Green Relationship as the personal connection between the individual and the silent partner, “the environment.” It fulfills the basic survival needs, “food and water,” and the one and only independency need, “oxygen.” The elements of the Green Relationship are the projection of the generic relationships elements we know of through the theory of “Humimicing” that I introduce in my thesis. Humimicing is the design theory that mimics human innate attributes and behaviors to develop design concepts to be applied in different industries. Every element of the Green Relationship is visualized through a different design discipline similar to its nature. Therefore, interactive, product and critical designs are the mediums used to represent Green Communication, Care and Ethics respectively through public installation, experimentation and conceptual design definition. The thesis methodology, which is “Make it Personal,” concludes in creating the Green Relationship that aims to change the behavior of individuals and ultimately to reach out to the wider community. Under the maxim, “Green is not just a color; it is a Lifestyle,” the thesis promotes the use of design to inspire people, designers and manufacturers to consume less and generate less waste in order to save natural resources and the environment.

Högläsning i förskolan - Endast vid vilan? : En intervju. och observationsstudie om förskollärarens förhållningssätt till högläsning i relation till den nya läroplanen

Rejmalm, Madelene, Gruvman, Maria January 2019 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to clarify how pedagogues work with the new curriculum goal regarding reading and talking about text content in order to promote children's language development in various ways. Eight observations have been conducted and four qualitative interviews at four different preschools. Based on the socio-cultural perspective. The results show that preschool teachers have understood that reading aloud and talking about the read is important for children's language development, but the working method between the different preschools has varied. / Syftet med den här studien är att synliggöra hur utbildade förskollärare förhåller sig till och arbetar utifrån målet i den senaste läroplanen (Lpfö18) angående högläsning och samtal kring det lästa för att utveckla språklig medvetenhet  och ordkunskap hos de äldre barnen. Åtta observationer och fyra kvalitativa intervjuer på fyra olika förskolor har genomförts. Studien tar teoretisk utgångspunkt i det sociokulturella perspektivet på lärande som beskrivs av Vygotskij. Resultaten visar att förskollärarna har liknande uppfattningar angående högläsning och samtal kring det lästa avseende värdet för barnens utveckling av språklig medvetenhet. Dock har arbetssättet för att nå detta mål varierat bland de olika förskolorna.
