Overall I liked the course, it provided a general understanding of SUMP and its structural elements and stages. It was nice to learn about the cases of particular cities. Sometimes I felt like the messages and ideas were a bit repetitive, but it was not too bad. I also appreciate that there were links to supplementary materials and web-resources, which I found quite interesting.

I really enjoyed this course, and it helped me understand more deeply what a SUMP is, how it got "created" and what it's main actions and achievements are. I hope it will help me with my university work and maybe someday help me become an active person in this change.
