評分項目	配分比例	說明
Context and Relevance	10	How well do you define your specific challenge/problem?
Biomimicry Process	20	How well do you demonstrate (rapid prototyping) and document an understanding of function and biological strategies?
Urban Design Process	20	How well do you demonstrate (translate) and document an understanding of biological strategies into urban design strategies?
Creativity	10	How novel is the design innovation and/or biological inspiration for future earth or interplanetary inhabitations?
Feasibility	10	Does your design concept represent a promising future design or technology advancement in design, and/or design solutions to defined problems for future earth? (i.e. show evidence of DFTs and future design applications))

教育目標

This module aims to synergise innovative design thematics by introducing a definitive Biomimicry Urbanism to adapt and establish "i-Sites" design conditions conducive to life. Such conditions form the core learning value in effects to future challenges on design professions. Students are expected to consider urban resilience system challenges and leverage points for adaptability, recovery and even future survival simulations in urban and architectural designing. The learning outcome calls for future design concepts addressing any aspect of climate change, SDGs, ESG, problems of Anthropocene, visions from mars mission projects, quantum technology breakthroughs and future applications, AI applications and implications on cities, and in any sector of the new social and economy model for designing towards life friendly cities of the future. Students will learn to demonstrate active learning and excellent problem solving skills. Design learnings is inclusive, to define concrete, well researched design thematic focus apply to core concepts and i-Sites for own Biomimicry Urbanism studies. The method will couple with latest science, technology break-through, and humanity creativity and inspirations in developing future design with tested design solutions. Thematic design projects should go beyond familiar approaches and make a substantial improvement in learning from the first semester of READ Lab’s Studio Culture. Students are expected to identify unique leverage points for design changes, removing barriers to the adoption and spread of better solutions, and/or clearly demonstrating how Biomimicry Urbanism can lead to new, novel, or more effective design solutions. Test and proof of design concepts (the DFTs) are necessary to be incorporated in the final presentation of the learning outcome.
