Parking: not as bad as you think, worse than you realize

This paper presents an analysis of 'Indigenous perspectives' as presented by 150 pre-service teachers of science education. They were presented with an open ended task that required them to choose a concept or topic in school science, and then incorporate their understanding of an Indigenous perspective relative to their chosen science concept. The demonstration of their science concept Indigenous perspective used network visualisation: concept maps or mind maps. Here the connections between Western science knowledge, Indigenous knowledge and knowledge application elements of the visualisations represented student constructed understandings or perceptions. The concept maps and mind maps were analysed in a staged process. Firstly, grouping of visualisations based on concept representations to uncover themes, and then using Network Theory, each theme was statistically analysed, concluding in an 'all' concept meta-analysis. This analysis was undertaken to mathematically developed models of concepts links. The analysis demonstrated six overlapping and interrelated areas of Western school science themes: seasons and weather, astronomy, plants, animals, use of natural resources, and ecology. The network analysis presented a complex web of interrelated knowledge constructs. This complex web of interrelated knowledge was within and across the six themes. Such findings indicate an Indigenous perspective is a relational construct inclusive of Western science knowledge, Indigenous knowledge and knowledge application. It also reflected the place-based nature of Indigenous knowledge. This study presents an Indigenous perspective as a complex web of interrelated Western school science and Indigenous knowledges. Such complex representations provide the possibility for a reconceptualisation of Australian science curriculum where science education is an interrelated human endeavour interacting with the natural world and where two worldviews coexist with one informing the other.
Parking Requirement at Road Intersections in T. P. Schemes of Surat City
Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research (JETIR), 2015
Parking really matters to urban mobility. Due to economic development of state, the urbanization in Gujarat spreading at very fast rate in last few decades. Urbanization in Gujarat is governed by Land pooling and redistribution tool of land management which is mentioned in Gujarat Town Planning and Urban Development Act, 1976. It is called the Town planning scheme mechanism. The Act provides criteria for different land use reservation, but it lacks specifications about parking area provision for public utility. Need to integrate the parking area reservation in the town planning scheme process just as the other land use reservations mentioned is essential, because the parking give major contribution in congestion through reducing the carriageway capacities and by reducing the flow of traffic through making obstruction. If we are going to make city growth in planned manner then, all components should be taken in planning process to make better execution of it by using existing experience of congestion and parking issues. Focus of my present work shall be identification of unauthorized parking observed at intersections of important roads in a planned and implemented final T. P. Schemes of Surat and to intervene if any relation is there between land use composition and parking area requirement. There is the reason why only the land use relations, because when the draft TPS prepared, the land use structure previously identified and known before the implementation done on the real site, so we can predict the parking area need.
