Publication Open Access A comparative product analysis of online and face-to-face basic design education(AESOP, 2023) Eren, Şirin Gülcen; Uluç Keçik, Aynur; Ala, EbruThe first year of education in the city and regional planning discipline focuses on one on one and face to face basic design education, primarily conducted through planning studios I II. Assignments are given to freshmen to enhance their urban planning and design knowledge, perspectives, design thinking, creative thinking, and design judgments. The COVID 19 Pandemic and the 2023 Kahramanmaraş Earthquakes occurred successively, resulting in a significant shift towards online university education. Course instructors and administrations had to amend education methodologies, materials, and course contents accordingly. The aims and objectives of design courses were fulfilled through various digitalized learning systems and programs. However, the quality of the design products declined during this period. Therefore, this study aims to compare the basic design outputs of students in the online courses of 2020 2021 and the face-to-face courses of 2022 2023 fall term planning studios at Süleyman Demirel University in Isparta, Turkey. The purpose is to determine the effectiveness of different education methodologies in basic design education and assess the outcomes in terms of quality and performance. Assignments from both online and face to face courses will be compared to evaluate the impacts of online education on students' learning and creativity. This research is exploratory in nature and employs a comparative analysis of two fall term final assignments (The Shell Project), assessing their level of meeting 16 design requirements. The evaluation of the study was conducted based on the grades of the submission, final grades, and course success grades and averages. The research presented shows an increase in the design quality of assignments in face-to-face education. This improvement is attributed to enhancements in meeting course requirements, the interactive nature of the courses, and changes in implementation processes. Additionally, there was a higher level of interaction with students, and their processes. Additionally, there was a higher level of interaction with students, and their efforts to learn and actively participate in the course were accelerated. The outcomes of efforts to learn and actively participate in the course were accelerated. The outcomes of this research are expected to provide valuable insights for lecturers and academic staff this research are expected to provide valuable insights for lecturers and academic staff involved in first involved in first--year planning studios. It will assist them in the development of course year planning studios. It will assist them in the development of course curricula, methodologies, and the preparation and delivery of design education for curricula, methodologies, and the preparation and delivery of design education for teaching the visual language teaching the visual language.

Its objective is to move beyond the functional schematization of capacities along successive implementation phases. Instead, it proposes an integrated framework for a comprehensive approach to urban resilience that considers the interaction between i) appropriate qualities based on the specific problem characteristics, ii) processes across different system domains forming a city, and iii) the involvement of agents in decision making and action implementation. Through an analysis of the challenges posed by chronic crises and structural disorders, the article underscores the need for a paradigm shift in governance to support communities grappling with the impossibility of contradictory adaptation choices. This is essential to ascend the ladder of city resilience through adaptive strategies, inclusive decision making, and the co generation of innovation, including the application of information and communication technology for this purpose. Keywords: Urban Resilience, Evolutionary Resilience, Participatory Design, System Thinking, Complex Socio Technical Eco SystemPublication Open Access A study on the urban structural characteristics of central living street for population density management: through comparative analysis of natural origin and planning center(AESOP, 2023) Kim, Minseo; Kwon, YoungsangThe city road plays an important role in urban space as a space where daily life and various activities take place. However, in this space, population density management is important in terms of infectious disease management and urban revitalization at the same time as areas where a large population is active. By comparing actual urban user data (POI), urban structural spatial characteristics, and floating population data, we intend to derive the characteristics of urban space in which actual users are active. The above study is of important significance in urban risk management by studying the relationship between the morphological structure of urban streets and the urban center. POI-intensive areas were selected for the entire Seoul Metropolitan Government to compare the urban structural differences between naturally occurring cities and planned centers through POI. Among the POI concentrated areas, Eulji-ro was the naturally occurring city, and Seolleung was selected as the planning center. POI data was visualized through GIS based on 2022 data, using a public data portal provided by the government. This study is basically based on multiple regression analysis. By setting the indicators of spatial syntax as major independent variables and POI-related variables as dependent variables, we would like to find out the impact of the physical structure of the city on people's behavior patterns. As a result, many POIs were located in areas with high integration and connection, and the back street was found to be a POI-intensive area. The degree of integration of the naturally occurring area (Eulji-ro) was correlated with integration only in 800M units, and for the central street with high integration and connection, the back street with low integration and high connection compared to the central street was POI dense. Through this study, it provides an analysis framework for urban planning and location preferences in compact urban centers. In addition, the planning effect was proved through an empirical analysis between the urban center and the pedestrian-centered urban plan. This can suggest a planning direction when creating a walking environment through the development or redevelopment of a new city in the future.

This study examines the Kaohsiung MRT to suggest planning recommendations for each station type. System dynamics are used to simulate the feedback relationship between TOD planning factors and MRT ridership. Results show that all station types positively impact TOD Design, while TOD Density is the main factor affecting ridership for "Suburb" and "CBD" stations, and TOD Diversity for "Residential" stations. The study aims to improve public transportation ridership and provide policy strategies for promoting TOD. Keywords : transit oriented development; system dynamics, ridershipPublication Open Access Achieving adaptation in medium-sized cities: the contribution of urban climate transition strategies in increasing soil permeability(AESOP, 2023) Caselli, Barbara; Ceci, Marianna; De Noia, Ilaria; Garda, Emanuele; Tedeschi, Giovanni; Zazzi, MicheleSoil sealing and land take have produced negative impacts on urban areas, leading to adverse phenomena such as loss of ecosystem services, the urban heat island effect, and flooding. In this critical context, increasing soil permeability through desealing interventions is considered an effective solution against these problems. Over the past years, desealing has begun to be recognised in the scientific literature and in spatial planning practice to meet various needs. The approaches to desealing considered today are either top down, as a result of political actions and choices by local and regional governments, or bottom up, i.e. promoted by local associations. Within this complex framework, the aim of this contribution is to investigate and compare some specific innovative strategic urban planning instruments in medium sized cities, specifically the Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plans (SECAPs), which were examined focusing on how these tools have interpreted and proposed desealing interventions. Keywords: desealing, soil sealing, climate change, adaptation, urban planning transition plans.Publication Open Access Activate the water heritage to build more sustainable communities(AESOP, 2023) Relvão Calmeiro, MargaridaToday we recognize the finite character of natural resources, and the need for use it in a sustainable way to ensure the survival of mankind. Water is one of these resources essential to life, thus, over time, man developed systems to carry and capture water, however, the modern infrastructures of water supply made these systems obsolete. This article states the need to reuse the ancient systems to capture and store water, moreover it reflects about the benefits of the preservation of this ancient knowledge as part of a development strategy based on the valorisation of local heritage and resources. It focuses on a set of small villages in the centre of Portugal, in a carsic territory marked by water scarcity, depopulation and low density. Keywords:Water systems, heritage, vernacular architecture, circularity, sustainable developmentPublication Open Access AESOP 2023 Congress : Full Program(AESOP, 2023)Track 01: Integrated Planning for Complexity Track 02: Smart and Agile Planning: Smart Cities and Regions Track 03: Planning and Law for Turbulent Futures Track 04: Integrated Planning over the Borders Track 05: Planning for Mobility: Accessibility, Affordability and Sustainability Track 06: Planning for Democracy and Governance Track 07: Planning for Resilience: Territories, Communities and Environment Track 08: Planning for Culture and Tourism: Public Spaces, Heritage, Identity, Regeneration Track 09: Planning for Inclusive, Multicultural and Just Cities Track 10: Interdisciplinary Planning Education: Challenges, Dialogues, Innovations Track 11: Turbulent Urban Futures: Uncertainty and Adaptability Track 12: Territorial Governance and Cohesion Track 13: A Multiverse of Planning Theories Track 14: CEE planning doctrines and practices Track 15: Environmentalism: Climate Crisis and Green Deal Track 16: Territories under Pressure: Geopolitics and Planning Track 17: Planning for Post-Pandemic WorldPublication Open Access Are IBA/IBTA successful instruments for regenerating mining regions sustainably?(AESOP, 2023) Kaur Slatch, AmritaIBA Internationale Bauausstellung has been for more than a century an important instrument of structural change in the regions facing socio-economic and environmental concerns. With the onset of Information Technology being used as a successful tool for urban planning, IBA now has reinvented itself as IBTA Internationale Bau und Technologieausstellung. It can be said that IBA and IBTA are constantly striving to have a forward-looking approach to global change in socio-economic, environmental and climatic systems. The IBA-Fürst-Pückler Land was an attempt to reimagine the postindustrial landscape of the open-cast lignite mining region in Lausitz or Lusatia which was completed in 2010. As part of the vision, several decommissioned and abandoned open-cast lignite mines were transformed into pit lakes, therefore becoming Europe’s largest artificial lake district. Two decades later the Rheinishce Revier or the Rhenish Mining Area (RMA), also an important Lignite region in Germany, is undergoing a similar process of change with plans to fill up the open cast mines with underground and river water to fulfil the vision of a Lake for the community. In the context of climate change, the observed declining ground water recharge potential and the unpredictable precipitation patterns in Germany, filling up of the open cast mines with water may not be the most optimal proposition when thinking for a sustainable future. The paper therefore seeks to highlight the limitation and challenges of the IBA/IBTA as a tool for regenerating mining regions and suggest measures and frameworks to address them. Keywords: IBA, IBTA, Mining Regions, Lausitz and Rheinishce RevierPublication Open Access Assessing housing quality for low- income groups in the central business district of Bangkok, Thailand(AESOP, 2023) Sanit, PeamsookThe central business district (CBD) of Bangkok has a significant population of low-income migrants from Thailand and neighboring countries. This research examines their housing situation, focusing on needs, accessibility, and conditions. The study analyzes the balance between housing demand and supply. Three CBD communities were studied using quantitative and qualitative methods, interviewing 235 low-income migrants. Findings reveal poor living conditions, limited amenities, and underutilized space in privately owned buildings. Government owned land remains unused. Addressing housing needs for both Thai and non-Thai migrants is crucial to improve their quality of life and enhance economic productivity. Current government policies lack inclusion for these groups, necessitating collaboration between private and government owned spaces to develop affordable housing. These measures reduce inequality, promote environmental quality, and sustainably strengthen Bangkok's economic competitiveness.

Moreover, there is a renewed interest in food-related bottom-up practices, which imposes to take into account issues related to collective forms of knowledge production, exchange and extraction. This contribution reflects on the process of designing the Food Atlas of the Venice Lagoon as an attempt to give voice to the multiplicity of stakeholders and to non-human agents of the Venice Lagoon. The Atlas calls attention to the existing network of bottom-up practices while stressing the urgency for an effective food policy for the Venice Lagoon, to test transdisciplinary, integrated methodologies that intersect local –human and non-human –actors and collectively produce food policies in the muds of practice. Keywords: Venice Lagoon, Food Policy, Living Lab, Food Atlas.Publication Open Access Attempting the regeneration of the isolated and borderline settlements of Epirus: the case study of the broader community of Pogoniani(AESOP, 2023) Tomou, Niovi; Serraos, KonstantinosThe fear of space confinement during Covid 19 pandemic, led many citizens to flee to rural areas, opening again the dialogue regarding rural development. Through the case study of a borderline rural community in Epirus (Greece), the possibility of reviving rural settlements that face severe problems of abandonment and isolation, is investigated. By evaluating the current national and international regulation on rural areas and a SWOT analysing the case study area, this research sets out to examine the character of a modern management of rural areas and contribute to the revival of these isolated communities. The subject of this paper is considered critical and needs immediate attention, as rural areas gather most of the planet's natural capital, which is currently being depleted and degraded. Keywords: regeneration, decentralisation, desertification of rural areas, post pandemic rural planningPublication Open Access Beautiful city: planning for transformations of the urban landscape(AESOP, 2023) Ray, KarenAgainst the backdrop of increasing needs for compact growth, higher densities, and large scale energy provisions, planners are challenged with facilitating developments that significantly alter urban and rural landscapes. The level of change is unprecedented (and usually more irreversible) in cities, where major residential and commercial developments, and even renewable energy installations more typically associated with less urban areas, are reshaping the physical character. In rural areas, and despite mounting pressures for major technologies, beauty and the visual components of landscape are still holding substantive weight in planning judgements. The explicit and compelling engagement with landscape significantly weakens as an urban discourse, while cities and towns are experiencing levels of change that equate to that of these developments in the countryside. Using cases in Ireland where beauty and the visual landscape were determining factors in planning judgement, this paper teases apart emerging trends in decision making in both rural and urban areas and raises somewhat ethical questions on accommodating such ‘subjective’ considerations in the face of global pressures for change. Keywords : Urban Landscape, Beauty Cities, VisualPublication Open Access Beyond the rhetoric: planning theory in the age of technology(AESOP, 2023) Signoroni, RuggeroWithin the animated debate of contemporary Planning Theory, more and more space is (appropriately) devoted to the critical deconstruction of some forms of rhetoric that, collecting vast consent within the public opinions, have been widely used in the field of urban politics and urban planning. What are these rhetorics? How do they take shape? In an attempt to answer these questions, the paper proposes an exploration articulated on two levels. The first consists in the analysis of rhetoric as an ‘epiphenomenon’, i.e. ephemeral manifestation of a structural tendency: that is, the return, in the field of social sciences and in particular of spatial planning, of scientism. By addressing the origins of the disciplinary rhetorics as well as the reappearance of scientism, the paper finally reflects on possible implications for Planning theory in the age of technology. Keywords: Planning Theory; Rhetoric; Scientism; TechnologyPublication Open Access Beyond visualisation of big data: towards dynamic data-driven city planning in Singapore(AESOP, 2023) Trivic, Zdravko; Sinha, Aditya; Ma, Kai; Goh, Kim HuatCities are complex systems shaped by simultaneous dynamic processes. While an increased number of studies focus on analysing urban big data, the attempts predominantly propose means for data visualisation, and fall short in data interpretation and guidance. In response, this paper aims to systematically understand dynamic urban big data, trends and anomalies in city functioning. We outline a comprehensive framework and “DataCube-CityScan” platform that harness on dynamic economic, societal, environmental, health and attitudinal data available in Singapore (e.g., people movement, public transport use, shopping behaviour). We use GIS alongside multiple outlier detection algorithms to analyse and identify specific trends and anomalies in real-time and alert city officials to respond and make informed and timely decisions, monitor changes, plan actions and strategies, and maximise their resources.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to predict development processes, phenomena, and events, as evidenced by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019. In the realm of contemporary challenges, the imperative for integrated planning becomes all the more pronounced, especially in the face of a world characterized by turbulence. The pertinence of existing planning methodologies, rooted in long-term strategic visions aimed at fostering stable societal development, prompts an inquiry into their efficacy and legitimacy. This scrutiny becomes particularly crucial when juxtaposed against the multifaceted planning challenges posed by the pervasive uncertainty of events, risks, and the interplay of anthropogenic and natural hazards. Therefore integrated planning emerges as a compelling alternative, addressing the spatial, sustainability, environmental, and values dimensions. Navigating the complexities of contemporary challenges requires a departure from conventional norms, urging a paradigm shift towards adaptive and innovative strategies that resonate with the uncertainties of our time. The Congress provided a room for a wide scope of discussion on planning and attracted an attention of the academic community from all over the world and, as a result of this interest, 769 papers were submitted to the Congress. Finally 593 papers have been accepted for an oral presentation within 17 Congress Tracks, 38 submissions for Poster session and 62 for on-line presentation. About 85% of these submissions were written by authors from AESOP-member schools. This Book of Abstracts presents contributions submitted at the AESOP 2023 Annual Congress in Lodz. Local Organizing Committee AESOP 2023 Annual Congress LodzPublication Open Access Book of proceedings : 35th AESOP Annual Congress : Integrated planning in a world of turbulence, Łódź, Poland 11-15. 07. 2023(AESOP, 2023) Banachowicz, BeataIn recent years, the modern world has been facing growing civilization challenges related to the effects of climate change, progressive degradation of the natural environment resources and values, internal and external migrations resulting from economic cr ises and political tensions, as well as shortening product life cycles, automation and autonomization of management processes in business and the public sector. Development processes are going to be difficult to predict, such as the outbreak of the COVID 19 pandemic in 2019 appearance, for example. Uncertain forecasts for the future force us to expect further development disruptions. Importantly, these phenomena h ave their consequences in the sphere of spatial development patterns and ways of using it by various stakeholders. These consequences are revealed on a local, regional, national and transnational scale, implying the need to develop methods of cooperation b etween various planning entities and planning systems. Space is becoming on the one hand an increasingly valuable resource, and its values and territorial dimension become an important factor of the development and growth processes on the other hand, it requires more and more flexible adaptation of its d evelopment patterns to changing trends and forecasted challenges and problems. This raises the question of the effectiveness and legitimacy of using the existing, more traditional planning approaches based on the methodology of long term strategic planning aimed at building stable foundations for the development of society and in c ontrast to this searching for new approaches corresponding to the indicated planning challenges in conditions of high uncertainty of events, risks and anthropogenic and natural hazards. A particular challenge seems to be the need to use planning tools in international cooperation to reduce the negative externalities related to the side effects of globalization processes. The Congress aimed to create a space to discuss the importance and role of Integrated Planning in a World of Turbulence .

Middle East Technical University in Ankara (the capital city) was designed in 1960s with reference to a well-defined alle; Van Yüzüncü Yıl University is in the eastern part of Turkey and constructed in 1980s, the alleis attached after several decades. Alle, as an extension of ‘street’ in university campuses, is the constructive spatial structure in campus design and as a result it should be (both physical and mental) spine of design policy. The main question of the paper is: how the spatial appropriation differentiates via walking practice at allein selected two cases with reference to differentiated design policies of spatial hierarchy at campuses. Keywords: Alle, campus design, psychogeography, spatial appropriation, TurkeyPublication Open Access Changes in multi-segmentation of the Korean labour market and heterogeneous gaps: the labyrinth of in-work poverty(AESOP, 2023) Park, Jihan; Kim, DonghyunThe purpose of this study is to identify the multi segmented structure of the labour market based on regional dualism and to empirically examine the heterogeneous forms of gaps between classes and the existence of mobility constraints. Using data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) 2018 2020, we conducted Latent Class Analysis (LCA) to identify the labour market structure between Capital Region (CR) and non-CR, and Latent Transition Analysis (LTA) to examine mobility between segments. We identified three segments in CR and four in non-CR. Income gaps across segments were heterogeneous and an exclusive position of the top segments. Furthermore, there were significant underlying constraints on mobility across segments, with entry into the top tier being very limited. These results suggest that the multi segmentation and heterogeneous gaps can be observed in postindustrial societies, and deeper division may occur in labour market for non-CR with limited opportunities such as personal contact. Keywords: Working Poor, Labour Market Segmentation, Multi Segmentation, Mixture Model, Regional DisparitiesPublication Open Access Citizen social science in spatial planning – potentials for resilience in a complex unpredictable world(AESOP, 2023) Goosse, TomThis paper reflects on the potential of citizen science in spatial planning when facing complex issues. It presents a framework that builds upon existing typologies and methods of citizen science and how it can be conceptualised as an adaptive tool in spatial planning to ensure active participatory engagement in the face of uncertainty and promote evolutionary resilience. Planners struggle to integrate citizens in their quest for certainty and evidence based planning centred around technical expertise. Many studies have recently explored the plurality of citizen science and identified multiple benefits for policy making such as engagement of citizens, its possibility to be initiated by any societal actor, as well as information flow and comprehension between involved actors. This paper investigates the potential benefits of citizen science in spatial planning for the input of new dynamic and situational perspectives on complex issues. Keywords: citizen science, participatory planning, complex adaptive systems, evolutionary resiliencePublication Open Access Comparing community engagement in planning education and co-creation in higher education: a literature review(AESOP, 2023) Weng Lu, Yen An; Chang, Hsiutzu BettyHigher education has recently started to adopt co creation design methods to foster active learning. However, long before this trend, planning education had already been using teaching methods such as studios that incorporate community participation to reap the benefits of teacher student co creation. This study explored the similarities and differences between teacher student co creation in higher education and community-based planning education in several aspects: research purpose, theoretical concept, methodology, and pedagogy. A literature map was produced according to the findings. Compared with higher education, community-based planning education focuses more on interdisciplinary collaboration and deals with more uncertainty in the face of complex issues. There is a need for further research on teacher student interaction from the perspective of students. Keywords: Community Engagement, Literature Review, Planning Education, Higher Education, Co creation of Learning
