| This
course is designed to provide students with an understanding
of planning principles, policies, processes and tools related
to sustainable recreation. Specifically, the course, 1) investigates
the relationships between the ecological, economic, and social
environments in land use recreation planning, 2) provides examples
and case studies of planning across the U.S., and 3) facilitates
discussion of recreation and other land use issues in light
of land use policies, planning principles, and community needs.
Students will explore current planning “hot topics,”
such as sprawl, social justice, sense of place, and restoration.
Students also will have a hands-on opportunity to put their
knowledge and skills to work in a land-use planning project.
