Contextually appraise different urban environments towards identifying planning issues/factors that underlie observed urban problems/success. 2. Produce legible visual notes that may include freehand sketches, perspective drawings, conceptual diagrams, mental maps and appropriate annotations. 3. Confidently express judgements about potentials, constraints, opportunities, problems and/or needs of a place using basic urban design vocabularies.
