Subject description

City Futures is a subject concerned with imagining the City from a variety of different lenses and

perspectives. It is about considering the myriad of possible futures for our cities and reflecting on

how different societies and individuals have envisaged wonderful or terrible future outcomes.

This subject critically examines imagined city futures from historical and contemporary perspectives,

incorporating concepts and approaches from utopian literature, critical urban theory, and

philosophy to explore how the ‘city’ is understood as a physical realm, a social realm, and an

imagined realm. In addition, the subject also critically investigates how imagined and real cities are

influenced by popular media and technology, as well as cultural, environmental, economic, social,

and political contexts. Students will be able to speculate upon the future of the polis, and their place

in shaping or being shaped by the urban condition.

Over the course of the semester, the subject will challenge you to consider what is important when

shaping a city and will frequently ask you to challenge status quo assumptions about the way our

communities, cities and countries function.

Subject objectives

At the end of the subject, you will be confident and competent in your critical ability to:

1. Overview historical and contemporary views of cities and civilisations as utopian or

dystopian.

2. Clearly articulate your thoughts about why the future of the city is contested and the

implications for the roles of urban professionals, individuals, communities, and governing

bodies.

3. Understand the forces and factors that influence the way we imagine cities and how these

imaginations are contested, negotiated, and/or feared.

4. Communicate the extent to which real cities are reflective of imagined utopias and the

implications for imaging city futures today.

5. Be familiar with cultural, environmental, economic, social, technological, and political

contexts of urbanism historically, today and in the future city.

6. Imagine the future of the city and your place in it by stating your own defensible position on

key issues confronting cities and city planning, such as: how we should plan for city futures

today.

Time commitment to study

Contact hours will be one two-hour lecture per week, and one one-hour tutorial per week.

However, there will be no tutorial in Week 1, and no lectures or tutorials in the mid-semester

break (a non-teaching week). This means the contact hours for the semester will total no more than

36 hours.

Total time commitment to study for this subject—including contact hours, research, and reading—is

100 hours, or approximately 8.5 hours a week.

Attendance at Class

Students are responsible for obtaining any information given out in class and keeping themselves

informed of the subject requirements.

Students who expect to miss one or more scheduled classes should discuss this with the subject

coordinators and tutor. The Faculty requires a minimum of 75% attendance at all tutorial sessions.

This attendance is a hurdle requirement for passing this subject. That means you MUST attend at

least 8 tutorials to pass this class.

The Faculty and subject coordinators will only permit extended absences where grounds for special

consideration exist, and in these cases, the subject coordinators may advise the student to consider

withdrawal from the subject.

Assignment submission

All assignments must be submitted online through the LMS. Further information on submissions is

provided in this link:

http://edsc.unimelb.edu.au/assignment-submission-and-collection

Requests for extensions or special consideration

Any requests for extensions or special consideration must be submitted to the Environments and

Design Student Centre. Information on how to do this is provided in the links below:

http://edsc.unimelb.edu.au/extensions

http://edsc.unimelb.edu.au/special-consideration

Ensure that you notify your tutor and subject co-ordinators so that you may be assisted

appropriately in obtaining an extension or special consideration. It is recommended that such

requests are communicated prior to the date of assessment submission.

Students in contact with the Student Equity and Disability Support are advised to confer with subject

co-ordinators.

(40%).

Further information outlining the assessment tasks and criteria are located in this subject guide.

Feedback and marks relating to your assessment will be returned within 14 days of submission.

Subject readings

There is no physical reader for this subject. All readings are uploaded to the LMS and labelled with

the relevant week.

Referencing

Students are to choose from a small range of citation styles. Appropriate styles for use in this subject

include Harvard, Chicago and APA. Use of any style outside of those stipulated must be approved by

your tutor.

You are to include a reference list with each assessment, noting the source and author of each text

utilised. Please also note your chosen citation style. Failure to cite or reference as appropriate will

incur the deduction of marks, as per the plagiarism policy below.

If you require assistance, ensure that you speak with your tutor or subject co-ordinators, and visit

the Academic Skills unit:

http://services.unimelb.edu.au/academicskills

Plagiarism and collusion

Plagiarism is serious and readily detectable: all submissions for City Futures are to be uploaded to

Turnitin. Plagiarism includes duplication of another author's work (whether in entirety or used in

segments throughout a submission); submission of one's own prior academic work (both within and

outside of the University of Melbourne); and 'close' paraphrasing (with minor changes to sentence

structure or vocabulary, but fundamentally identical in terms of meaning, structure, key terms, and

logic). Collusion—collaboration with other students on individual tasks—is also a form of academic

misconduct, which can be readily identified.

Plagiarism and collusion are not tolerated and will incur a mark of zero for the relevant assessment

task.

Penalties for the late submission of work

Standard penalties apply for late submission of work for undergraduate subjects. The Faculty of

Architecture, Building and Planning’s position in regard to penalties for late work is as follows:

• In-class tasks: 100% of the mark.

• All other assessment: 10% of the total possible marks for the task for each day that it is late,

including weekends and holidays.

This means that, after three days, a student originally awarded 75% will be awarded 45%. After five

days the work will not be accepted for marking and students will receive no marks.

University Policy additionally considers this on the basis of calendar days. A late submission for a

portion of a day will be counted as one day late; a submission made the day following the

assignment due date will be considered two days late, and so forth.

Penalties for breach word limits

Standard penalties apply for breach of word limits for undergraduate subjects. The Faculty of

Architecture, Building and Planning’s position in regard to penalties for breach of word limits is as

follows:

• Assignments of more than 1000 words: for assignments that exceed the word limit by more

than 10%, inclusive of footnotes, attract a marking penalty of 10% of the marks that would

otherwise have been awarded.

• Assignments of less than 1000 words: assignments which exceed the word limit by 10% will

be capped to a maximum grade of H2B.

• Any assignments that exceed the word limit by 25% will be capped to a maximum grade of

H2B.

For example, an assignment with a limit of 2000 words will be marked down by 10% if there are

more than 2200 words. If there are 2500 words or more, the maximum result that may be awarded

is a H2B.

Assessment

Assessment Task 1: Class paper

This assessment is a formally written piece, to be written and submitted individually. Your class

paper should not exceed 500 words. This includes in-text citations, but does not include your

reference list.

This task is worth 15% of the subject’s total assessment. You are to utilise a minimum of five

academic references, selected from both the core readings and your own research.

The class paper is due 5 pm, August 25, and is to be submitted to the LMS via Turnitin.

Learning objectives and generic skills

The key activities in this assignment are to:

• Identify an existing example of a utopia in media or literature;

• Utilise a range of academic literature in critically analysing the chosen utopia;

• Situate these utopias within a real-world context, justified with appropriate research.

Assessment task

You are required to submit a class paper of 500 words in response to the following prompt:

Utopias respond to perceived issues or crises: they are imagined spaces where these

problems have been resolved. These envisioned worlds have been frequently depicted in

texts—film, media, and the written word—over the past century, but also deeper in our

collective history. Selecting one utopia from a specified source, analyse its key elements in

light of the era in which it was produced, understanding the social, political, and economic

characteristics of that time.

Your class paper must include citations and a reference list within the parameters of your chosen

referencing style. A minimum of five academic references are to be utilised.

You may wish to focus on a utopia from any of the following sources:

• Film or documentary

• Television

• Literature

• Video games

• Music

It is recommended that you discuss your choice of utopia with your tutor. Opportunities will be

provided to workshop ideas prior to submission. A sample paper will also be uploaded to the LMS in

Week 2.

Assessment criteria

The assessment criteria for the major essay is outlined below.

Reference list

A list of references is required for any visual or written material that you may reproduce in this

assignment or for any ideas and concepts that you have received from other sources.

Ensure that your work is paraphrased where necessary. Direct quotes not cited or stylised in

accordance with the chosen style guide will be considered plagiarism.

Assessment Two: In-class Tutorial Presentation

This task is a presentation of 10 minutes to be conducted within a tutorial session from Week 3

onwards, and is worth 20% of the total subject mark. You are to present on a selected core

reading.

This task has a rolling due date. You must present in your allocated tutorial. A module in the LMS will

be utilised, allowing students to self-allocate themselves to a reading. A maximum of two students

will present per tutorial unless otherwise negotiated with the tutor.

Learning objectives and generic skills

You will develop and apply analytical, critical thinking, writing, and oral presentation skills, having

chosen a core reading to discuss.

The key activities in this assignment are:

• Identifying and defining the focus of your chosen text;

• Relating the chosen text to a specified theme or topic;

• Communicating the key elements of the work clearly;

• Critically assessing the value and validity of the chosen text.

Assessment task

Select a core reading from a particular week. You are to present on this core reading in your tutorial.

You may choose to utilise images or slides, a YouTube video of your own making, or a creative work.

You should provide a background of the author, summarise the reading, and critically analyse it for

its validity and relevance to the topic for that week. Ensure that you clearly address the primary key

tenets or ideas of the text.

Due date

This task has a rolling due date. Sign-up sheets will be placed on the LMS at a time specified within

the first lecture.

Assessment Task 3: Annotated bibliography

This assessment task is an annotated bibliography that will help to prepare you for Assessment Four,

the final essay. Focusing on this essay, you will select and annotate a set of relevant texts. This

assessment task should not exceed 1,000 words in total. This task is worth 25% of the subject’s

total assessment.

The assessment is due 5 pm, September 22, to the LMS.

Learning objectives and generic skills

You will develop and apply analytical, critical thinking, and writing skills in framing and developing

your annotated bibliography.

The key activities in this assignment are:

• Identifying and defining the focus of your annotated bibliography and essay;

• Locating and citing high-quality academic texts, including journals and books;

• Frame analyses with an introductory and concluding paragraph, defining key terms;

• Critically assessing the value and validity of chosen texts.

Assessment task

Select a topic from a list of essay questions to be provided in Week 4. Identify four key terms, and

locate an academic text relevant to each chosen term, culminating in the analysis of four texts. You

may utilise books, edited books, and peer-reviewed journal articles. Only one of these texts may

be a core reading. Your key terms should be stated prior to the introduction, along with your

chosen referencing style.

An introduction and conclusion should frame your annotated paragraphs, which introduce your

topic, and briefly outline your findings. For each text, include an accurate bibliographic citation,

followed by an analysis of approximately 200 words, for a total of four texts overall. Only one core

reading may be discussed. Your citation list is not included in the word count.

Assessment criteria

This assignment is worth 25% of the total mark for the subject.

Reference list

A list of references is required for any visual or written material that you may reproduce in this

assignment or for any ideas and concepts that you have received from other sources. Ensure that

your work is paraphrased where necessary. Direct quotes not cited or stylised in accordance with the

chosen style guide will be considered plagiarism.

Submission

You must submit the written piece online through the LMS, using Turnitin. Further information on

submissions is provided in this link:

http://edsc.unimelb.edu.au/assignment-submission-and-collection

Assessment 4: Major essay

The third component of your assessment is an essay of 1,500 words.

Choosing one topic, write an academic essay in a formal written style. Your work is expected to

include an introduction, body, and conclusion: your structure and argument should be clear, and

your essay should critically analyse ideas relevant to the topic, rather than restating them. You are

expected to draw upon a large number of diverse and high-quality academic sources, with a

minimum of ten references, citing no more than three core readings.

Harvard, APA and Chicago citation styles are acceptable unless otherwise approved.

Students are not to extrapolate upon ideas or topics utilised in prior assessment, with exception of

the annotated bibliography.

Essay writing resources will be available through the LMS. In addition to this, workshops will run

during tutorials. Further assistance will be available through individual tutors or the subject co-

ordinators during consultation hours.

This assessment is due at 5 pm, on November 10 to the LMS, and is worth 40% of the total

mark.
