I took the Barrier-Free Built Environment Design course to learn more about designing spaces that are accessible to everyone. The course was pretty cool, with some really interesting topics like universal design and accessible transportation systems. I liked that the instructors provided lots of examples and case studies, which made it easier to understand the concepts. The course materials were also pretty good, although some of the readings were a bit dry at times. Overall, I'm glad I took the course and I think it's helped me become a better designer. One thing that would be cool is if they added more interactive elements, like quizzes or games, to make the course more engaging.
