About the Course

This course will include the evaluation of best practices in parking strategies for sustainable cities. Some of the examples include downtown parking policy, understanding the high cost of free parking, the development of parking sheds, managing neighborhood parking, hiding parking lots and other parking strategies and practices. There will also be a case study of the Victoria Canada parking management approach that investigates problems with current work on parking planning and discusses the cost of parking facilities and potential savings from improved management. There will also be an introduction to the use of form-based codes for application to sustainable cities. A variety of building forms such as mid-rise and high-rise buildings, apartment houses, live/work buildings, single-family homes, and row houses will be assessed. A particular emphasis will be on vacant property strategies for equitable and healthy communities. Vacant property strategies for reclamation will be evaluated with an analysis of the revitalization cycle. Green building construction principles will be evaluated in consideration for natural light and ventilation, solar orientation, use of sustainable building materials, energy efficient design and on-site energy generation as well as other considerations. Building architectural design will leverage climate, construction materials, and the culture and history of the area. Architecture choices should have a consistent appearance within the community and provide residential privacy. Other considerations include protection and preservation of historic buildings, use of universal design concepts, careful placement of civic buildings and the appropriate use of subsidized housing. By the end of this course, you will be able to: 1. Survey and evaluate a variety of parking policies that support sustainable cities and environmental quality. 2. Compare different parking options such as parking sheds, neighborhood parking, parking lot access, permeable parking spaces, and a variety of ways to hide parking lots. 3. Describe the approach that the state of Minnesota used in developing a greenhouse gas reduction plan for their transportation sector. 4. Examine issues of implementing climate 鈥 friendly transportation pricing and the concept of 鈥渇ix it first鈥 transportation policy. 5. Evaluate the concept of form-based codes and their benefits for creating sustainable cities. 6. Assess smart green construction practices such as use of sustainable building materials, on site energy generation, proper solar orientation, and the use of green building standards. Target Audience 鈥 Government Officials involved planning, designing, monitoring, enforcement, and assessment of sustainable project developments at the local, state, and federal level. 鈥 Private sector companies in the transportation and municipal design and construction business 鈥 Architects interested in advancing sustainable concepts for cities and communities 鈥 Foundations, associations, and other NGOs that support smart growth strategies 鈥 Academic faculty and students studying and researching community sustainability and resilience 鈥 Private citizens interested in improving their communities and living conditions...

The course is designed for beginners without prior knowledge of sustainable design and consists of short videos. However, those interested in the topic could find more comprehensive information online.

Les transports durables, les b芒timents durables et la construction 茅cologique sont des domaines interconnect茅s qui visent 脿 r茅duire l'impact environnemental tout en am茅liorant la qualit茅 de vie. Voici un aper莽u de chacun de ces aspects et de leur importance dans le cadre de la transition vers des soci茅t茅s plus durables : 1. Transports Durables Les transports durables visent 脿 r茅duire les 茅missions de gaz 脿 effet de serre (GES) et la consommation d'茅nergie tout en favorisant des solutions plus 茅cologiques et efficaces pour se d茅placer. Cela inclut : Transports publics : L'augmentation des r茅seaux de transports en commun (trains, tramways, bus 茅lectriques) permet de r茅duire la d茅pendance aux v茅hicules individuels polluants. Mobilit茅 active : Encourager la marche et le v茅lo en am茅nageant des infrastructures adapt茅es comme des pistes cyclables et des trottoirs. V茅hicules 茅lectriques : L'adoption des v茅hicules 茅lectriques, hybrides ou 脿 hydrog猫ne, est essentielle pour r茅duire les 茅missions de CO2 du secteur des transports. Solutions partag茅es : Le covoiturage et les services de transport 脿 la demande (type "car-sharing") sont des alternatives 茅cologiques aux v茅hicules priv茅s. 2. B芒timents Durables Les b芒timents durables sont con莽us pour r茅duire leur impact environnemental tout au long de leur cycle de vie, de la construction 脿 la d茅molition. Les caract茅ristiques incluent : Efficacit茅 茅nerg茅tique : L'utilisation d'isolants de haute qualit茅, de fen锚tres 脿 double vitrage, et de syst猫mes de chauffage et de refroidissement 脿 faible consommation 茅nerg茅tique. 脡nergies renouvelables : L'int茅gration de panneaux solaires, de turbines 茅oliennes ou de syst猫mes g茅othermiques pour fournir une partie de l'茅nergie n茅cessaire 脿 l'茅difice. Mat茅riaux 茅cologiques : Utilisation de mat茅riaux recycl茅s, locaux et durables, comme le bois certifi茅 ou le b茅ton bas carbone. Design bioclimatique : Conception des b芒timents en fonction du climat local pour maximiser l'efficacit茅 茅nerg茅tique en utilisant des principes comme l'orientation du b芒timent, les auvents et les puits de lumi猫re naturels. 3. Construction 脡cologique La construction 茅cologique englobe un ensemble de pratiques qui visent 脿 minimiser l'impact 茅cologique de l'ensemble du processus de construction, du choix des mat茅riaux 脿 la gestion des d茅chets. Cela inclut : Minimisation des d茅chets : R茅duction des d茅chets sur le chantier et r茅utilisation des mat茅riaux. Des techniques comme la construction modulaire ou l'utilisation de mat茅riaux recycl茅s jouent un r么le cl茅. R茅duction de l鈥檈mpreinte carbone : L'utilisation de mat茅riaux 脿 faible empreinte carbone (comme les briques de terre comprim茅e, ou le bois) et la r茅duction de l'茅nergie n茅cessaire 脿 la fabrication des mat茅riaux de construction. R茅cup茅ration de l鈥檈au de pluie : Int茅grer des syst猫mes de collecte et de r茅utilisation de l'eau de pluie pour des usages comme l'irrigation ou les toilettes. Normes 茅cologiques : Respect des normes internationales comme la certification LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) ou la norme BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method). Les B茅n茅fices R茅duction des 茅missions de gaz 脿 effet de serre : En privil茅giant les 茅nergies renouvelables et les mat茅riaux 脿 faible empreinte carbone, ces pratiques contribuent 脿 lutter contre le r茅chauffement climatique. 脡conomie d'茅nergie et d'eau : L'efficacit茅 茅nerg茅tique et la gestion responsable des ressources permettent de r茅duire les co没ts 脿 long terme pour les usagers et les entreprises. Am茅lioration de la qualit茅 de vie : Les b芒timents durables offrent un meilleur confort thermique, une meilleure qualit茅 de l'air int茅rieur, et une lumi猫re naturelle accrue, ce qui contribue 脿 la sant茅 et au bien-锚tre des occupants. Pr茅servation de la biodiversit茅 : Une conception respectueuse de l'environnement permet de pr茅server les espaces verts, d'int茅grer la v茅g茅tation en milieu urbain et de respecter les 茅cosyst猫mes locaux. Conclusion Les transports durables, les b芒timents durables et la construction 茅cologique sont des 茅l茅ments cl茅s de la transition vers des villes et soci茅t茅s plus respectueuses de l'environnement. Ces pratiques permettent de lutter contre les changements climatiques tout en favorisant des modes de vie plus sains et plus durables. Adopter ces solutions 脿 grande 茅chelle pourrait 锚tre une des r茅ponses les plus efficaces pour un avenir plus vert et plus 茅quitable.

The course structure is suitable for beginners and offers clear, understandable content. However, it could be improved by incorporating quizzes and mini-projects. While the lectures and readings provided a good theoretical understanding of the subject, hands-on practice through quizzes and mini-projects would not only reinforce the learning but also make the course more enjoyable. Practical exercises help learners apply what they've learned, fostering a deeper understanding and retention of the material.

Very good course. Indeed it helps me to understand sustainability in built environment holistically. However I still need to complete another 2 courses in this specialization course; Sustainable Neighbourhoods and Sustainable Transportation Networks and Streetscapes which are not included for free enrolment in the specialization. I wonder why?

It's a very easy but clear course. I found very easy to follow even as a non-native english speaker. It was also super interesting even if it's more focused on the US method of building, in Europe some of those strategies are already in use but i guess it all depends on where and how you look at things. Btw Super approved!
