This course was easy to follow and included short lessons packed with valuable information. It encouraged me to think beyond the surface and consider the nuances of sustainablity in relation to product, the environment and humanity within the fashion system. The resources were exactly what I needed to continue researching as I lay the foundation for my own fashion brand.

Rather boring. Faculty members reading stuff. No visuals, very little illustration. No recommended reading. Very unhappy, particularly compared to other Coursera stuff.

The course was very interesting and I learned a lot!

My only problem was the week 4 videos were very confusing.. I believe the teacher is trying to read her script, but it's not fluid or natural. It was very hard for me to follow the idea and had to read it. This slowed me down

The course title and description should be more specific since the content is all about sustainability, environmentally as well as ethically.

It would be beneficial if beyond the videos there were more facts available, as well as diagrams and probably illustrations of the various process and products being discussed.

It was highly relevant, informative & a strong foundation to anyone within in the fashion industry. It is a great way to get introduced to sustainable systems within the fashion industry & I hope to carry forward these skills throughout my career.

I would highly recommend this course for fashion enthusiasts. It was interesting and informative in the larger social and culture phenomenon. It embraces the art and craft aside from business of fashion and consumption.
