麻省理工学院“开放式课程网页” | 都市研究与计划 | 11.310J 2002春季课程：媒体科技与都市设计和发展

本课程是麻省理工学院最早延续宾州大学所开始的西费城地景计划(West Philadelphia Landscape Plan, WPLP)工作的实习课程之一。它包含了在教学大纲中对该计划完整的说明，以及在专题部分学生作品的范本。

This class is one of the earliest studios at MIT to carry on the work of the West Philadelphia Landscape Project started at the University of Pennsylvania. It contains a full description of the project in the syllabus, and examples of the student work in the projects section.

本课程旨在探究使用媒体科技与网际网络以增进沟通和改变城市设计与都市内邻里社区发展的可能性。本课程介绍许多方法，用以描述或者代表一个地方和它的居民、以模拟行动和改变、以代表对于未来的远景、以使多元的参与者加入设想改变与指导行动的过程。学生将参与两个邻里地区的工作：宾州西费城地区的Mill溪区，以及麻州春田市的Brighthood /Northend。学生将与参与实际计划工作之人员会面，将理论化为行动，并且省思在过程中所得到的体悟。我们期望学生的作品将能够在这两个邻里中促成新的行动。

This workshop explores the potential of media technology and the Internet to enhance communication and transform city design and community development in inner-city neighborhoods. The class introduces a variety of methods for describing or representing a place and its residents, for simulating actions and changes, for presenting visions of the future, and for engaging multiple actors in the process of envisioning change and guiding action. Students will engage two neighborhoods: the Mill Creek neighborhood of West Philadelphia, PA, and the Brightwood/Northend neighborhood of Springfield, MA. Students will meet real people working on real projects, put theory into practice, and reflect on insights gained in the process. Our hope is that student work will contribute to new initiatives in both communities.
