Students will understand be able to explain context sensitive development and low-impact development

• Understand and articulate the elements of a context-sensitive development.

• Categorize and evaluate elements of low-impact development.

• Complete a skills/aptitude assessment.

As they pursue creating a sense of place in every project, developers must recognize the environmental and social implications attached to their projects. This comes in different forms. For example, a development in an environmentally protected area would have to mitigate for any disturbed natural vegetation or resources. In a culturally sensitive area, a developer should understand the area's stakeholders and tie aspects such as the function or architectural design of their project back to the area
