This course did a good job of laying out the most important ideologies in the field of Circular Economy, and provided plenty of examples, references, links, and potential ideas where these ideologies and practices are implemented. For this I am most grateful to the creators of the course. I do feel that the ordering is slightly off: some of the videos from Week 5 (the ones about social changes) should've been front and center in Week 1, in my opinion. Also, Week 1 was full of 1-2 minute videos, which were incredibly uninformative due to how a good 30-20% of the time was taken up by the outro sequence.

I really enjoyed this course! It taught me how to incorporate circularity into business practices and clarified key terms like "narrowing loops" vs. "closing loops." The course also provided valuable information on reducing environmental impact and making businesses more sustainable, with a focus mainly on European countries. However, I would have liked to see more information on policy and regulation and sustainable business practice on a global scale. Overall, I now feel more equipped to implement these ideas. Highly recommend it for anyone interested in sustainable material management!

Very nice and attractive course to dive in deep about circula economy and how to approach and step in. Some interesting food for thought and very nice intervetion from the associate and some of people with post doctorate to show case studies and some tricks. At the end of this journey a good enhance of awarness about circula economy and which future we will face with.

This course provides a good introduction to the circular economy with interesting case companies, but the content is becoming a bit dated now that we're headed into 2023. Additionally, some of the assignment prompts are not the clearest. Having a fair amount of circular economy general knowledge coming into this course, it was only somewhat helpful.

I found that the course efficiently provided a very good overview of the concepts. Much appreciated!
My one suggestion, which may be a reflection of this entire field, would be to try to create a glossary of terms and, if possible, some kind of graphic (perhaps one for each weekly section) to show how the various concepts relate to one and other.

A very intense course with lots of topics. Perhaps too many. Partially, it was explained in a way that made it difficult to practice, e.g. the very helpful table to assess the circularity of a company, but more examples would have been helpful to get, and perhaps at a slightly slower pace. But all in all, a very informative, inspirational course.

Excellent content and reading material provided. The exercises and tests were all well-thought and challenging in a good way. The only reason I rated it one point less was because the flow of information was not very good in a couple of chapters and I felt a bit lost. But this did not detract from overall learning and performance, so thank you!

The content is clear, precise, the dynamic of shared tasks is very nourishing. I understand that the circular approach is going towards high-value waste such as minerals, rare earths and metals; however, I would have liked to see examples of circular economy in other sectors, such as human food or livestock. Overall a well structured course.

Great input! Extensive knowledge, from very technical to systemic and societal approaches in the context of circular economy. Really enjoyed learning with this course, yet I would wish to include more examples from other industries than almost only mobile phones, also in the first chapters of the course (e.g. textile production/resources).

The course was great in giving a framework with which to continue to learn, take in information from the news and other publications, and to envision the ways to contribute towards a circular economy. The presentation could have been a little better (higher resolution images, more accurate transcription of the videos).

The course is really reach, entertaining and with a lot of valuable information and easy to grasp pedagogy. My only concern is about online learning in general, which deprive learners from the importance of direct eye to eye contact and also the importance of real-life practice learning.

Very informative course focusing on Europe's current policies on sustainable material management. Overall, I enjoyed the course. I got an idea of how material circularity works and what can be done to improve it. Thansk presenters for giving insight into material circularity.

the course is very beneficial and has a lot of mind opening ideas that would enhance the principle of materials usage and disposal. the course may better to include more examples and case studies from different countries like Asia or US or Middle east if possible

LOVED THE WAY THE COURSE WAS DESIGNED, FROM THE BASIC LEVEL OF HOW THE MATERIALS ARE EXTRACTED AND TAKEN OUT TO THE BUSINESS MODELS, ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT TO POLICIES.
IT WAS A BRIEF TASTE OF EVERYTHING RELATED TO SUSTAINABILITY. MY FAV PART WAS THE MODULE 2 :)

This course gives you an in depth understanding of circular economy and empowers you with tools to assess and implement circular economy in the work you are looking to do. Am grateful to all the universities involved for putting together a fantastic course.

It is very informative and educating course with hand of practical and case study. This has a lot of fact, technical and research based information to provide better understanding on circular economy to support environment, business and social structure.

This is a great course about circular economy and how to apply it in developed countries, but there is little mentioned on how to embark upon the task of using these techniques in non developed countries (particularly South America, Africa and Asia).

The course touches various aspects of circular economy & most importantly shares a lot of resources to study that help during & even after the course. Clear, crisp & vivid presentation of the content kept me engaged. Definitely worth the time.

A very broad-ranging course, covering topics from responsible mining to consumer use of electronics. I found all the lectures to be clear and well delivered, and the case studies (follow your phone) particularly useful.

Nice course with quizzes and assignments. Some parts could have been more into depth, but overall interesting and well spent time. Still trying to find out how to access the certificate after completion of the course.

El curso nos ayuda a percibir de cerca y con ejemplos la forma en que muchas empresas están tratando de reemplazar sus materiales para utilizar los que fueran más sustentables y los beneficios que obtienen.

As an introduction for the Circular Economy concept this course is very good, you can take a very comprenhensive approach to the topics.
I'm really intereseted in having a deeper knowledge now I finished it.
