This thread is for learners participating in the Foundations of ESD Founding Pilot.
Thank you for being part of the first public version of the course.
As you move through the pilot, I’d genuinely like to know what is working, what is unclear, and what would make the course more useful. You do not need to write a formal review or respond to every prompt. A sentence or two about something you noticed is plenty.
Some particularly helpful things to share:
- Clear: What made sense immediately?
- Confusing: Where did you hesitate, reread, or feel unsure what I meant?
- Useful: What explanation, example, activity, or resource helped most?
- Missing: What would have helped you understand or apply an idea?
- Too much: Was anything repetitive, overly detailed, or harder than it needed to be?
- Technical: Did you find a broken link, formatting problem, unclear download, or other issue?
When possible, begin your comment with the module or lesson you were working on.
For example:
Module 1 — What Is ESD?
The heat example made the distinction much more concrete, but I would have liked an example like that earlier.
Or even:
Module 1.3 — I had to reread the explanation of ___ before it clicked.
Short and specific is perfect.

Your feedback is optional. You do not need to comment in order to participate in or complete the pilot.
I may use pilot feedback to revise explanations, examples, activities, resources, navigation, or other parts of the learner experience as the remaining modules are released.
I will not use your name or feedback as a public testimonial or promotional quote without asking your permission separately.
Thank you for helping me make the course clearer, more practical, and more useful for future learners.
