February 8th Class Notes

***DISCLAIMER***

The notes I have taken are what I heard and how I interpreted it. These notes do not cover 100% of everything that was said in class and not word for word. Some things on here have the possibility to be wrong. I am only human.

NOTE: Clicking words that are highlighted like this (Google) will open a new tab and take you to a website with a description/helpful explanation or save you time from searching things like Zotero and etc.

Today in class we discussed:

  • Types of research
  • Built Environment Project
  • Zotero

Built Environment Project

Things you want to observe:

  • Style = What the space is like(specific details).

    Ex: Modern –> full of computers/apple logo/modular

    		 Aural = Sounds you hear.

    Ex: Kids playing in a park, sounds of the swings.

    		 Structure = How things are designed/built

    Ex: Buildings–> pillars etc
    Tone = The effect of the space on you. How it makes you feel. What the author uses.

    Ex: Space makes you feel cold or its inviting.

    		 Visual = The things you see.

    Ex: Traffic, buses etc.

    		 Organization = How things are laid out.

    Ex: Where sidewalks/trails go, how buildings are spread out, bus stops.
    Mood = What the audience feels/reacts/thinks. Oral = The way people speak.

    Ex: Accents during an interview.

    		 Graphics = Signs

    Ex: The style of the sign, color, definition/how detailed the sign is.
    Diction = Signs/punctuation.

    Ex:  Keep out sign vsWelcome sign

    		 Repetition = Styles or patterns that repeat.

    Ex: All the buildings in a shopping plaza are designed similar.

    		 Colors = The colors present.

    Ex: Red, Green, Black etc.

Types of research

Primary research: Examples: Built environment descriptions, interviews, using archives, transcripts.

Secondary research: Examples: Annotated bibliographies,

When conducting interviews:

Remember, they are people. Do not badger/force people to talk to you. Respect them. Ask for permission to interview/record/taking pictures and have them sign a release form.

  20. Located right next to the bustling Downtown Dubai and set along the iconic Dubai Canal, Business Bay is more than just a commercial hub—it’s a sophisticated blend of luxury living, entertainment, and corporate buzz. Think of it as the Manhattan of Dubai, where skyscrapers reflect in still waters, and cosmopolitan life thrives 24/7.

    Staying near Business Bay puts you right in the center of everything. Whether you’re in Dubai for a high-stakes business meeting, attending a conference, or planning to explore the city’s top attractions, this location offers the perfect balance between work and play. You’re minutes away from Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and the Dubai Opera, yet tucked away in a more peaceful, professional district.

    It’s also incredibly well connected, with the Business Bay Metro Station offering quick access to Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), and Dubai Marina. With a variety of hotels catering to both corporate and leisure travelers, Business Bay has become one of the most sought-after areas to stay in Dubai.

    In the field of law, a timely dissertation topic might be “The Evolving Legal Frameworks Governing Data Privacy in the Age of Digital Surveillance.” This research would examine how various jurisdictions are adapting their laws to address the growing concerns surrounding personal data collection, particularly in relation to government surveillance and corporate data handling.

On a side note, if anyone here is working on setting up office or classroom networks, using quality cabling is key. I recently found a reliable source for Cat6 Plenum 1000ft cables that meet safety codes and ensure stable connectivity. Just thought it might help someone dealing with installations or IT setups!

    In commercial and industrial kitchens, maintaining a clean and efficient exhaust system is not just about hygiene—it’s a critical safety measure. Over time, kitchen ducts accumulate grease, oil, and smoke residue, posing significant fire risks. Regular Kitchen Duct Cleaning is essential to prevent potential hazards and ensure compliance with safety regulations.
