ENV118 Environmental Management for a Changing World

Your task is draw on unit lectures, tutorials and blog posts to focus on a current crisis and identify a potential solution. You then need to enage with at least 3 reputable sources of information to research the problem and solution. We want you to think carefully about how both the problem and solution are framed and make sure your poster and presentation communicate effectively to your audience.

Please make sure your poster is well structured and includes consideration of the following prompts (hint: these could become sections/sub-headings within your posters):

1. What’s the problem?
2. What’s the potential solution and why is this a viable solution?
3. How could this solution be implemented and applied in different contexts – specifically at local, regional, national and/or global scales?
4. What are the potential risks and/or impacts associated with this solution and how do these relate to issues of sustainability, connectivity and/or human-environment relationships?

Internal students will be expected to stand by their poster and present a 2 minute summary of their key findings to fellow students and unit staff. Students will also have time to circulate around the room, view other posters and listen to their fellow students’ presentations. Peoples’ choice posters will receive bonus marks.

External students will post their posters online together with a 2 minute pre-recorded presentation. Student will need to listen to the other presentations and post constructive questions. Peoples’ choice posters will receive bonus marks.

Internal students who do not attend the internal session will receive 0% for this assignment. If you have justifiable reasons for not attending, you may be able to submit via the external student portal if you contact Sandie when registrations for the poster sessions open.
