课程名称：进步的理解与探讨（Making Progress Teach-Out） 概述：什么是“进步”？我们如何判断自己是在向前迈进而不是倒退？如何在公共记忆场所周围探讨进步的理念？本次Teach-Out旨在邀请您思考进步的意义，探索您所在城市、社区或邻里的进步，与此同时，反思您对所生活地方的看法。 我们社区的建成环境变化本身是人类行动和意图的结果，例如城市规划、商业活动或社区自我改造空间的努力。换句话说，在我们的城市中，我们可以看到计划实施的结果——我们创造和塑造未来的尝试。邻里、政治团体、企业、政府、学校和其他组织都在塑造社区，留下的痕迹让我们可以看到它们如何改变了我们的生活方向。 本次Teach-Out将探讨以下问题： - 影响并改变我们居住地的力量是什么？ - 现代城市中，人们如何与地点连接？ - 地方是否会进步？ - 我们如何测量是否存在“进步”？ 我们将采访一系列在乔治亚州亚特兰大工作的人员，但这些问题和我们所看到的地方在全球许多地方都具有相似的意义。本次Teach-Out将教您如何在任何社区找到公共空间的历史，并反思进步的概念。最后，您还可以参与讨论，交流在个人及社区内探索、发现和可能转变的内容。 Teach-Out是： - 一次活动——在固定的短时间内进行 - 一个机会——向全球所有人免费开放参与 - 一个社区——汇聚了大量多样化的个人 - 一次对话——提供给与人交流思想和信息的机会 这一社区学习活动邀请全球参与者与埃默里大学校园社区（包括教授专家）共同探讨。此次Teach-Out是埃默里大学致力于让地方与全球社区共同探索和理解对我们社会最重要的问题、事件和现象的一部分。 Teach-Out源于密歇根大学的Teach-Out.org，旨在围绕某一特定的当前议题提供短期学习体验。参与者将在几天内汇聚一堂，不仅学习关于某一主题或事件的知识，还获得有关技能。Teach-Out向全世界开放，旨在汇集不同视角的人们进行深度和尊重的对话。这些活动为多元学习者和众多专家提供了相聚、相互提问和探索全球社区紧迫问题新解决方案的机会。欢迎加入讨论！

Description:
What is “progress”? How do we decide when we’re moving forward and not taking steps backward? And how do we explore the idea of progress around public sites of memory? This Teach-Out is an invitation to think about what progress means, and how you can look for it wherever you are—in your city, community, or neighborhood—and reflect upon your own ideas about the place you live in. Changes in the built environment of our communities are themselves the result of human actions and intentions, such as municipal planning, commercial enterprises, or communities transforming their own space. In other words, in our cities we can see the results of our plans—our attempts to create and shape the future. Neighbors, political groups, corporations, governments, schools, and other organizations, they all shape the community, leaving traces that allow us to see in what directions they transformed our lives. This Teach-Out will ask the following questions: • What are the forces that shape and change the places we inhabit? • How do people connect with places in our modern cities? • Do places progress? • How can we measure in them whether there is any “progress”? We will interview a number of people who work in Atlanta, Georgia, but the questions and places we will see here are comparable to many of other places in the world on what it means to progress. In this Teach-Out you will learn how to find the history of public spaces in any community and how to reflect upon the idea of progress. Finally, you can join a conversation to discuss what has been explored, uncovered, and possibly transformed both within ourselves and our communities. A Teach-Out is: – an event – it takes place over a fixed, short period of time – an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world – a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals – a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people This community learning event invites participants from around the world to come together in conversation with the Emory campus community, including faculty experts. This Teach-Out is part of Emory’s commitment to engage the local and global community in exploring and understanding problems, events, and phenomena most important to our society. Originating from University of Michigan (Teach-Out.org), Teach-Outs are short learning experiences focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come, join the conversation!
