View learning outline
The concepts of guidelines and environmental standards. Relationship between guidelines and
standards. The guideline value as the maximum permissible concentration that guarantees an
acceptable health condition or environmental quality. Types of guidelines. Actors and
organizations for the establishment of guidelines: International) panels of experts, Governmental
organizations, World Health Organization (WHO) and other international organizations.
Components of Environmental Standards: (a) application in near – ground level outdoor locations
where a person might reasonably be expected to be exposed over the relevant average period;
(b) protection of human health and the environment; (c) contribution to sustainable development.
Main targets of environmental standards.: avoiding adverse health effects from high pollution
levels, protecting the environment and contributing to sustainable development. The law and
environmental standards: regulatory bodies, documents, consequences/penalties. Review of
descriptive and basic inferential techniques in handling environmental data for policy making.

At the end of the course, students should be able to: 1. understand the nature of the new media; 2. appreciate its theoretical foregrounding; 3. thematic on its peculiarities; and 4. engage practice in the genre.
View learning outline
The fatigue that modernist artists expressed about the conventions in painting and sculpture
and incorporating ready-mades and genre objects within the art field forms the background to
this course. From its postmodern perspective, the course evaluates the new media from the
multimedia context. It evaluates the interactive contexts in which the new media are
appropriated in the visual arts. It thermalizes performance-driven genres such as the
performance art in multimedia and studio performances - the gallery/studio informal/stage -
conceptual trends and the spectacle they endear. Studio assignments feature texts for
performance on personal narratives, memories, collective histories, and enactments in video
documentations of not more than three minutes.
