Chapter 2 reword

 

1. How has your geographic background or your ethnic heritage influenced your food preferences? Are there food norms from your home that you no longer share? What food norms or preferences would you find difficult to change or give up?

 

Answer: Well, coming from the south western part of Nigeria in Africa, this really made me like certain food which I know I miss so much here in the States ( Amala with gbegiri soup, corn eaten with coconut, etc), there are some things like eating with my hands while sitting on the floor, eating good fruits would be difficult to give up.

 

2. Consider movies, TV shows, or advertisements that you have recently seen. How is the act of eating depicted, particularly among ethnic, regional, or socioeconomic groups? Similarly, how is being thin depicted? How is being overweight depicted? How could these depictions influence young persons’ views of food?

Answer: Movies, TV shows or any advertisement portray being slim or skinny as the standard beauty. There are some advertisements that has nothing to do with beauty but they still use skinny people as models for the advertisements which I think it’s wrong. Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes in different races and colors. Caucasians are usually seen to be slim or skinny for the most part compared to the counterparts (African Americans) due to socio-economic status and as well as genetic make-up too. People from the South are also usually obese because they indulge in lots of soul foods which has lots of calories and fats. Being considered overweight sometimes can be inaccurate because it’s determined by BMI which I think shouldn’t be the standard of determining one’s overall health. People should focus on staying healthy as oppose to focusing on the scale. Young boys and girls (especially girls) are so focused on staying skinny as opposed to staying healthy just because the way the society idolize skinny. They are so obsessed with their bodies these days to the point of going into depression when they gain healthy weight. Society even expect you to have thigh gap to be considered beautiful. Most people’s body is not built to have thigh gaps unless one become anorexic which is another issue. I just think people should focus on healthy life style and that doesn’t necessarily mean being skinny.

 

3. Who was in charge of food in your household when you were young? Why? Did other adults or children in the household affect food decisions? How?

Answer: When I was growing up, my parents (mum) was in charge of food in my house and there was nothing like everybody eating different foods at a point in time. Everyone ate the same for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The choice of foods to be served was determined by what the head of the home eats. As a child, you eat what your parents offer which is usually balanced diet. Eating the same food at the same time was unity and spending family time together.

 

4. What types of interventions could be developed to help households avoid processed convenience foods when faced with fatigue and time constraints? What variables might influence the success of such interventions?

Answer: Growing up, we never had to eat processed foods because we were taught to make our own foods. There are still some foods that can be made within a short period of time even when faced with fatigue and time constraints e.g. corn and coconut, etc. Another way one can avoid processed convenience in this modern age is to make some foods over the weekends or off days and preserve it in the freezer so that one only need to micro wave when it’s time to eat.

Planning which includes, early planting in small scale to feed family and doing groceries shopping wisely (not putting too many processed foods in your cart), knowing what to cook and cooking on your off days can influence the success.

 

5. Did any of the messages from perspective 9.1 (white bread) r 9.2 (zombies) cause you to question your own attitudes r assumptions?

Answer: Back in the days, we used to eat foods picked from our garden which helps the family to bond as well eating together and healthily. But industrialization has taken that away from us. Now, people tend to go to the supermarket to buy processed foods, fruits and vegetables. Also, adaption into westernization is creating bonding time among friends in such a way that one used to cook for friends when they come over to one’s house back in the days but now, people tend to go to restaurants and eat whatever is on the menu even though it’s not really healthy. The more we tend to drift away from culture and tradition, the more we keep getting into trouble and the more stress we are putting on our body in such as way that the body keeps going through inflammation by eating all these processed foods. Moreover, we used to be much more active back in the days because there was no online shopping, no drive-thru, no video games. Therefore, people spent quality time and had very good social skills regardless of their educational background. The results of all these globalization has led to the high incident rate of of inflammatory diseases such as diabetes, hypertension etc.

1． Generic structure for dissertations

1. an introduction to the study, outlining: (a) background to the topic, in terms of key policy and/or research questions, issues and debates; (b) the shape and scope of the dissertation, outlining for the reader the broad purpose of the study, where you can choose to introduce the overall aim and the objectives of the research (more frequent in quantitative research); (c) an outline of the structure of the dissertation.

 

2. a literature review, which provides an overview of a range of literature relevant to the topic chosen, including appropriate policy documents and technical reports as well as other academic work detailing research findings in your chosen field of study. The purpose is to identify gaps in the overall body of research and to outline the (modest) ways in which your research can fill those gaps and expand the larger body of knowledge. It is not simply a summary of everything written on a particular topic; rather, it is an attempt to locate your research within the broader array of knowledge on a particular subject. This, in turn, provides a detailed justification for, and explanation of, the research questions or hypotheses around which your work will be structured.

In summary, then, a literature review should synthesise others’ work, highlighting the key themes to emerge from other studies and applying these to your own research. You should not treat the literature review as simply a summary or précis of policy documents, journal articles and books: it should not be, for example, ‘everything I know about housing land’, or ‘everything I know about transport policy’. Instead, the literature review must be related to the tightly defined research questions or hypotheses which your study is intended to address. In other words, it requires your own assessment of the key findings of earlier work which relates to your topic. A literature review has to be comprehensive, covering policy debates as well as theoretical and conceptual issues (i.e. academic literature). It is also important that you concentrate on literature which is of direct relevance to your work; skip-read related material of only marginal relevance.

 

3. the methodology , which details your research plan. You can introduce your overall aim and objectives here, instead of the introduction (more frequent in qualitative research). Here you introduce your methodological framework and justify its rationale. You detail how you have implemented the different methods in order to generate and collect data that are used to address the research questions.

 

4. a results chapter, outlining the findings of research undertaken (e.g. review of policy and technical documents, interviews with key actors, questionnaire-based surveys, or analysis of data collected from secondary sources such as the Census). (In some cases it may be more appropriate to collapse this chapter with the subsequent one. Your supervisor will advise you on this).

。

 

5. an analysis and evaluation chapter, exploring the significance of the results, relating them to the ‘bigger picture’ issues outlined in your literature review and highlighting the implications in light of the research questions or hypotheses. This chapter can be combined with the results chapter.

 

6. a concluding chapter, where you demonstrate how you have met your overall aim and the research objectives, discussing the main findings presented in the previous chapters, and highlighting the implications of your work for policies, practices, theories or techniques, and setting out the ways in which your research has advanced or reinforced knowledge of your chosen subject area.

 

7. a full reference list, covering all works cited in the main text.

 

8. any other relevant reference materials, which may be presented in the appendices。

3． The theme and the research plan and method adopted

 

1．Title：

Can the construction of sponge cityies be the framework for the development of sustainable urban drainage systems? Case study: One or two cities in China

2． The aim of this research is:

Aim: To study whether the construction system of China’s sponge cities can promote the development of sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS), thereby solving various “water issues” in cities (urban floods, waterlogging, etc.)

 

3．The objectives of this research are：

1）:

2）:

3）.

4）.

；

 

4. The general idea of Intro and literature review:

background introduction (for example: due to the increase of extreme rainfall and weather due to climate change, various water problems in cities, especially urban floods and waterlogging); causes of urban water problems (invalidation of traditional urban drainage systems) Even paralyzed); China’s traditional drainage system (deficiencies, defects); sustainable drainage system (concept, function (solving urban water crisis, flood disaster), importance); China’s existing (common) sustainable drainage system and development Current status, shortcomings; sponge city (definition; characteristics; advantages and usefulness); new direction: the development of urban sustainable drainage system in the construction of SC system (considering the special characteristics and functions of SC can be used to promote the development and development of sustainable drainage system Participate in the construction of a sustainable drainage system; current authors’ research status and deficiencies in this new direction).

 

5．Proposed Methodology

1）Document analysis

Through documents, literature, reports, books and urban planning documents related to specific research topics, the feasibility, development status (results), research progress, deficiencies and challenges of developing sustainable urban drainage systems under the construction concept of sponge cities are obtained , Improvement, new development trends and research directions, etc. This information includes: definitions, data, charts, The core content of specific research, etc. Analyze and review the documents related to the research theme, and finally use it to evaluate the theme and draw conclusions.

2）Secondary data analysis

All secondary data from network datasets (literatures, documents, reports, papers). The analysis and research of Secondary data can draw the status quo of the development of the drainage system in the sponge city and under the concept of sponge city, how to improve the deficiencies and shortcomings of the development of urban drainage systems, so as to better promote the development of sustainable drainage systems and ecological cities.

 

3）Case studies technique

Through the analysis of typical cases of “sponge cities” (one or two cases) that have developed better sustainable drainage systems in China, studying their impact on sustainable drainage systems and the development of ecological cities. Understand the urban water problems (waterlogging, water shortage, black and odorous water bodies, destruction of natural landscapes and ecosystems) that occurred under the traditional urban drainage system in the past. Today’s achievements in the development of sustainable urban drainage systems include whether the pressure on urban drainage systems has been basically eased and controlled, whether urban flood and waterlogging have been basically resolved, whether water resources can be recycled, whether urban natural landscapes have been restored, etc.

In addition, through the study of the sustainable drainage data of these sponge cities, the advantages and disadvantages of the sustainable drainage systems of these cities are evaluated and compared, and improvements and suggestions are made to the shortcomings and shortcomings. Finally, based on the concept of sponge city construction, after adopting a reasonable and correct innovative research plan to improve the sustainable urban drainage system, predict the possibility of water problems in the city in the future (waterlogging, water pollution, water shortage, lack of groundwater level, etc).
