I found the Water Sensitive Urban Design course to be a valuable learning experience. As an Indian architect, I was looking to enhance my understanding of sustainable urban design principles, and the course provided a comprehensive overview of the subject. The instructor was knowledgeable, and the course materials were well-structured and easy to follow. I appreciated the focus on case studies and the opportunity to analyze real-world examples of water sensitive urban design. The course also covered the importance of community engagement and participation in the design process, which I found particularly useful. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more region-specific examples and case studies, as the course was somewhat biased towards Western contexts. Nevertheless, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to anyone interested in water sensitive urban design.
