    This study aims to clarify how urban renewal policies have regenerated or transformed Leipzig, grand city of former GDR (German Democratic Republic), by observing the decrepit neighborhoods near its town center.  The decrepit housing areas originate from the numerous working class apartments built before WWI, as they were abandoned during the socialist era after WWII, as well as the period of suburbanization after the unification of Germany. Being deserted for a long period of time, the buildings are in poor condition, generating an area with problems of vacant houses and other socio-economic issues. Thus, there is a bad impression towards this area with a large decline of inhabitants (especially Germans) can be observed. The low rent and the proximity from the town center has attracted a remarkable number of foreign populations in the recent years, creating an ethnic appearance.  To improve this situation, urban renewal policies are carried out in Eastern Leipzig with aid from federal government, state and the EU. These measures include reconstructing empty buildings, developing parks and parking lots as well as living, language, and employment support to its inhabitants, and a certain amount of success has been achieved.  However, there is a difference in progress of regeneration among the urban development districts. Furthermore, outside of these districts, hardly any renewal has been taken place, and many dilapidated buildings remain. This situation reveals that the renewal of the decrepit housing areas depends on public investment of urban renewal policies. Attractive areas like the town center draw private investment, but not in run-down neighborhoods. Therefore, urban renewal is carried out only in districts where public capital is intensively injected.  In other words, urban renewal in Leipzig is selectively realized in town centers, suburbs, and the decrepit housing areas by investment from federal governments, states, EU, and private enterprises. This selective investment generates an apparent contrast in the progress of urban renewal among Leipzig’s districts.

    The purpose of this paper is to explain the development process of the environmental perception of third and fourth graders in Japanese elementary schools. About 24 children participated in this study, which used a sketch map survey. Inagi City’s Ohmaru area, in the suburbs of Tokyo, Japan was selected for the area to be covered in this study.  Over the course of the study, the point of view from which children drew sketch maps shifted from the horizontal to the vertical through the third grade. Additionally, the method of drawing architecture changed from the three-dimensional type to the position type. From the third to fourth grades, the number of elements on sketch maps increased and sketch maps changed from route maps to survey maps as the children became older.  Field research on geographic learning plays an important role in the third-grade geography curriculum. At the beginning of the third-grade in social studies children usually learn to read and draw maps of neighboring area. Children can develop their environmental perception and cognitive abilities through field research, which can provide them with the opportunity to read and draw maps of neighboring areas.  On weekdays, after school, children often play in the park and on school playgrounds. This experience of outdoor spaces also influences their development of environmental perception.
