ASSIGNMENTS. ASSIGNMENTS GUIDE 2018 As a participant in the Planning the Cycling City 2018, you are expected to participate in a number of ways throughout the programme. A full list of what is expected can be found in the programme syllabus. Here, we detail the assignments that should be completed before and during the course by each student. A major part of this programme is team work and participation: please ensure that you come to class prepared – having done the readings and the ‘to do’ assignments) – and arrive in Amsterdam with the pre-arrival assignment completed. If you have any questions, please email your Academic Directors.
INDIVIDUAL (AUTO)ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY Before your arrival in Amsterdam, as well as during your stay, we ask you to consciously reflect on your mobility practices. You will use (auto)ethnographic techniques and report your findings in a report. The (auto)ethnographic method is highly subjective and uses deep self-reflection while writing to explore and connect personal experience to wider cultural, political, and social meanings and understandings. You are encouraged to use visual support, media, drawings, and anything else to supplement your assignments. Additionally, this method asks you to be aware of your own baggage (ie, assumptions, stereotypes, etc) as a researcher who has a particular idea of what Dutch cycling is. At its most basic level, this method requires keeping a diary (written or audio/visual, or both). 1. Observations of mobility practices and behaviors of others: »»
Who is doing what? Where are they doing what? How if mobility functioning?
»»
What emotions in others are you sensing?
»»
What interactions do you observe?
2. Observations of the tangible environment: urban design, traffic, audible and visual sensations »»
What do you hear, see, smell?
»»
How are people interacting with their environment?
3. Observations and reflections of the intangible:your own bodily sensations, thoughts, experiences, interactions with others.
10
»»
What do you feel in your body?
»»
How is your mind working, is it wandering or focusing on something?
»»
Who is interacting, who are you interacting with?
#PCCAMS18
INDIVIDUAL WRITTEN REPORT 1. ASSIGNMENT 1: PRE-ARRIVAL ASSIGNMENT (IN YOUR HOME CITY)
Choose a minimum of two modes of transport and consciously observe and reflect on your mobility practice in your home context. During a minimum of 2 trips per mode, take scrupulous notes (i.e.: also called “thick description�, usually in a diary) and answer the above questions in your own words and using your own reflections and observations. Compare your notes from both modes. If possible, relate your findings to literature (reading list provided). u Deadline 11 June, Email: brommelstroet@uva.nl 2. ASSIGNMENTS 2 AND 3: IN-AMSTERDAM ASSIGNMENTS
Choose a minimum of two modes of transport (cycling and 1 other) and consciously observe and reflect on your mobility practices. Over the course of the programme, your diary should contain as many entries as possible (minimum of 3 entries per week) answering the questions above. Use this diary to create the source material for your Amsterdam report. Write a short reflection on what changed in comparison with Assignment 1.
u Deadline 25 June, Email: brommelstroet@uva.nl 3. ASSIGNMENT: REPEAT ASSIGNMENT 2 AND 3
Repeat the 25th June assignment one last time for each mode you chose. In this final assignment, please also reflect on the overall learning process of the programme, your conclusions, and connect to the (for you relevant) literature from the programme. How did your mobility practices change? How did that relate to your thought process and the learning from the course? What do you take back home? u Deadline 4 July, Email: brommelstroet@uva.nl

THE RULES OF THE ROAD u You’ve now been a temporary Amsterdammer for a week or so. You’ve probably noticed some interesting behaviors on (or off) the road. Make a list of all the rules of the road - surely some are formal laws, but there are many unwritten rules as well. Use language to carefully describe what you are noticing.

Pick a good spot to observe 2. Draw the physical space you see (in plan perspective, or bird’s eye), noting as many details of the infrastructure, pavement markings, and building block as possible. 3. Trace the movements or pathways of as many users of the space as possible, distinguishing between pedestrians, cyclists, motorists. When one pathway is used more than once, keep adding thickness to that line. You should trace at least 100 movements. 4. Now take a look at all the lines you drew. How do those lines correspond to the infrastructure? Are users of the space using the infrastructure as it is intended? Why or why not? Are there conflicts between or among users? 5. Interview several people using the space. What do they think of it? How could it be improved? 6. Bring to class

Scavenger Hunt - on your own / in your groups
SCAVENGER HUNT score points on a range of missions in the city of Amsterdam. We will distribute a more comprehensive list of missions. Examples include: u Go to a supermarket and find as many products as possible that use cycling in their marketing. Take pictures, or bring products to class. u Ask at least 3 customers how they arrived at the supermarket and how often they go there. u Find a shop or business that uses a bicycle in the streetscape or their shop window to attract attention (bonus points: conduct 2-3 intercept interviews with people about reasons for doing so, or how successful it is) u Interview people on the street and ask them how their bicycle reflects their lifestyle or personality. (bonus points: Make a video of the interviews) u Hitchhike (dink, or double) on a regular bike. (Bonus points: in a cargo bike) u Interview 2-3 tourists on a bicycle. How does cycling in NL compare to their home city? How they would want their home city to accommodate more bicycles and what role they want to play in making that change?]

The content of this course was made possible by the Urban Cycling Institute, hosted at the University of Amsterdam Graduate School of Social Sciences Summer School and the Center for Urban Studies. Creative production of this playbook was directed by James Ranson & Meredith Glaser. We also want to thank all the speakers for contributing their time and expertise to the course. Without them these three weeks would not have been possible.
