This is an extremely insightful course. I'm hoping to apply this knowledge one day in my third world home country and improve the cities back home.

Thank you for this course, it lays out the key concepts and goes over an example. It helped me grow more interest and grounding in the topic.

There was useful information in the course and it was mostly well-organized. Some parts were very repetitive; for example, the video titled More Multimodal Considerations in Week 3 almost entirely repeats information from the previous video about biking, congestion fees, and shared vehicles. Also, the quiz questions are badly proofread and some answers are incorrect (for example, the answers to question 14 and 16 of the quiz for week 4 are incorrect).

difficult to follow as concepts are repeated, albeit learned after the quizz, and whatever you type is "correct".

It felt repetitive towards the second half. I learned great concepts overall!

Concepts were simple and should have been delivered in a more compact way.

Presentation accompanying voiceover was not content rich.

No presentation slides to download. Major concepts could be captured in a simple (ideally downloadable) table for use during the tests.

I didn't want to progress with the specialization after taking the first course

I expected something more dynamic and more packed with useful and interesting knowledge. I will try to finish this course but not sure if this is going to happen.

Just small improvements like more dynamic and charismatic lecturer would make this course a great experience ;)

With my 2 stars I am not challenging the content of the course, but the form it is developed - very basic and not engaging at all. The lecturer should try to put in the lectures some more passion and involvement.

this is a very specific course with extremely local cases and information that doesn't actually benefit people globally
