No syllabus, no problem: Let’s co-create a world of food, agriculture, and society
The intimate relation people have with food provides unique opportunities for teaching. In this field report, I will describe and reflect upon the method of student-centred learning I use in a first-year university course entitled Food, Agriculture & Society. The aim of the course is to provide students with a broad understanding of how food and agriculture have shaped society and can contribute to a more sustainable future. Consistent with food …

Evaluating the Strength of Local Legislative Frameworks to Protect Farmland: City of Richmond and Metro Vancouver, British Columbia
In this exploratory paper, we introduce a new method of plan quality evaluation to measure strength of policy focus. We demonstrate how the method can be applied to evaluate the strength of farmland protection policy in two local governments in the Province of British Columbia, Canada: the City of Richmond and Metro Vancouver Regional District. The method aims to not only describe strengths and weaknesses but also measure aspects of quality that …
Better Than Good: Three Dimensions of Plan Quality
The literature suggests that plan quality should be distinguished as a type of plan evaluation not only for its focus on content but also for its communicative ends. This distinction is important for expanding the scope of plan quality evaluation, but it also highlights ambiguity about what we mean by "quality." As a way to address this ambiguity we propose three dimensions of plan quality: documentation (comprehensiveness), policy focus (strengt…
Old-Growth Forest Values: A Case Study of the Ancient Cedars of British Columbia
The Inland Temperate Rainforest of British Columbia is a globally unique ecosystem containing areas of high biodiversity and stands of ancient cedars. The ancient cedars, which are estimated to be 1000–2000 years old, are located in a region historically focused on the economic values of timber. Yet recent scientific discoveries and new recreational uses of the forest have changed people's interest in and perceptions of this old-growth forest. Th…
