This course is really hard to pass especially for the evaluation on ONLY PEER-REVIEW assignment. My challenges are there is nobody will give a grade and it is too take a long time after we submitted. I think your course can modify the methods of assessment, because waiting for a long time to be graded it is very boring.
Thank you

A very good introductory course on the circular economy of metals for students a researchers. With ever-increasing job opportunities that relate to this field, it is a great opportunity to take the course and expand the chances of employment and career development. The course can help researchers get lots of ideas for research proposal writing on the sustainable development of materials, an area that is of interest to many funding agencies. It provides a general overview of how a circular economy of metals can result in sustainable development, the knowledge all of us need.

This course explored and elaborated my understanding of circular economy in the context of metals. supply and demand flow. The course content has a multidisciplinary approach; it can be understood both from a scientific, social and economic perspective. The course is relevant and up-to-date exploring a dynamics of related themes and concepts such as the sustainable development goals, climate change, environmental impact, demand and supply, material criticality. The facilitators are also experienced and apt for the course being members of the International Resource Panel.
