{"title":"Designing the Future","authors":"Doug Tallamy","doi":"10.5040/9781350036109.ch-018","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5040/9781350036109.ch-018","url":null,"abstract":"While there have been improvements in Australian engineering education since the 1990s, there are still strong concerns that more progress needs to be made, particularly in the areas of developing graduate competencies and in outcomes-based curricula. This paper reports on the findings from a two-day ALTC-funded forum that sought to establish a shared understanding with the 3 stakeholders (students, academics and industry) about how to achieve a design-based engineering curriculum. This paper reports on the findings from the first day’s activities and reveals that there is a shared desire for design and project-based curricula that would encourage the development of the ‘three-dimensional’ graduate: one who has technical, personal and professional and systems-thinking/design-based competence. Introduction This paper presents selected findings from a two-day ALTC-funded regional forum held in April 2009 at the University of New South Wales, Australia, as part of the ALTC project “Design based curriculum reform within engineering education”. A forum was proposed for the project because of its effectiveness in focusing stakeholders towards the systemic issues necessary to improve design pedagogy throughout the curriculum (Dym, 2005). The forum brought together 40 leading academics from around Australia, 40 industry representatives primarily from within the Sydney basin and 20 senior students, to reconceptualise engineering curricula around a design core. An engineering design approach was used to consider how a curriculum based strongly around engineering design, that is: problem solving, engineering application and practice, might be achieved. While the forum had many aims, on the first day participants engaged in a structured workshop to identify emerging trends and needs, individual and organisational responses to these challenges, and from this, to specify the competencies which graduate engineers require. It is these findings which are the focus of this paper. The current ALTC project builds on the outcomes and recommendation of a previous ALTC project report entitled “Engineers for the Future: addressing the supply and quality of Australian engineering graduates for the 21 century” (King, 2008). This report reveals that whilst progress has been made in addressing the concerns raised in a 1995-96 review of the national engineering education system (IEA, 1996 in King, 2008), there are areas that have not progressed as expected. The areas relevant to this project are: ISBN 1 876346 59 0 © 2009 AAEE 2009 293 • High levels of student attrition • Lower incentives within the system for improving teaching than for developing research • Effect of research appointments over teaching appointments and barriers to promotion • Concerns that the balance of subjects within current engineering curricula are not adequately matched to graduates’ and industry’s current and future needs It is the last of these areas that this forum sought to address synergisticall","PeriodicalId":11492,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Restoration","volume":"40 1","pages":"81 - 82"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47645253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since its introduction, millions of hectares in the southwestern U.S. have been planted with, or invaded by, buffelgrass. Buffelgrass can form monocultures that not only reduce biodiversity but can also change ecosystem processes. Native-grassland restorations may be able to mitigate such negative impacts of non-native grasses. We conducted a study to document the response of herbaceous plants (grasses and forbs) and wildlife (grassland breeding birds, grassland wintering birds, and butterflies) to a 118-ha grassland restoration (involving prescribed fire, multiple discing and herbicide applications, and native-plant seeding) in La Salle County, Texas during 2013–2019. In general, we documented a numerical increase for all three taxa (native plants, birds, and butterflies) in species richness and relative abundance on the restoration site compared to a control. Our results suggest that native-grassland restoration is possible in a landscape dominated by buffelgrass. These restoration efforts can increase plant and wildlife diversity, although the time and expense required to achieve such responses are great.","PeriodicalId":11492,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Restoration","volume":"40 1","pages":"44 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47864352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
