Source:
idsa.org

Okala provides an introduction to ecological and sustainable design for
practicing and beginning designers. Okala means "life sustaining
energy" in indigenous Hopi language. It envisions a future where we
recognize the value of global ecology and work to insure its
protection. The Okala guide revised in 2007 with emphasis on usability
to practicing designers and design students. Key attributes of this
revised edition include:
- Updated Lifecycle Impact Assessment methods that include use the
newest environmental impact characterization methods and normalization
data from the US EPA, as well as the newest weighting values from the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
- Okala impact factors (incorporating the aforementioned methods) for
240 materials and processes which enable estimation of the ecological
performance of any product or system
- Global climate change values (in CO2 equivalents) for the same 240 materials and processes
- State of the art design guidelines for disassembly and recycling
- Expanded explorations in environmental ethics, bio-mimicry, and design to stop climate change
- Additional references to socio-economic relationships
- New Green Marketing data and Product Life Cycle costing analysis
Okala was co-developed by Philip White, Louise St. Pierre and Steve
Belletire. Eastman Chemical, Whirlpool and the IDSA/EPA Partnership
supported its development. The course modules were designed to be easy
to integrate into existing classes. Over 60 design schools in North
America requested the Okala materials.
For self paced learning or even for enhanced supplement material
web design tutorials are easily available at number of sites for wide range of audience. In different institutes
web development degree might be the better option for professional people. Nevertheless it is all about producing better and efficient
website design in the world of World Wide Web.
