Very insightful, credible, and well-researched! The course has helped me realized the wrong things I've been implementing when it comes to my study habits, while simultaneously helping me become a better learner. I have also learned many other concepts regarding neuroscience. I would definitely recommend this course to everyone.

Thanks so much for this wonderful course. I'm a new coursera user so that was the very first course I took and I loved it! There's so much new helpful information I didn't know.Although I think the only problem with this course is it is only four- week course I'd love this course to be longer to get even more tools for learning!

Pienso que este tipo de cursos son muy importantes, si hubieran más cursos como este, mejoraría nuestro aprendizaje diario y la sociedad tendría mejor conocimiento en general del mundo que nos rodea. Pienso que este curso es muy importante para cualquier persona, de cualquier edad, para que mejore su modo de aprendizaje.

Gracias.

I have completed the first week of the course. I am fascinated by these brain facts, and examples of historical figures utilizing and understanding their thought processes! Watching the video lectures by Professors Oakley and Sejnowski is rewarding. They are smart and articulate, and I am powerfully improved by their example.

Extremely easy to understand really love the way that Professor Barbara Oakley teaches , i had a lot of fun and learned so much. Have been able to reignite that spark I once had as a child who used to get straight A , but didn't know how or why and lost it as a young adult , now I understand how that worked. thank you so much.

i thought this can help with my procastination, but actually this gives me a chance to look back and have reflection on my learning years, my method, learning habits, i would really like to take this course ten years ago and it would be of a great help.

as for my procastination, it took me 2 months to finish this course, so.....

Great course! I've always wondered about learning how to learn because in my country schools are not paying attention to how does a brain works or how does a human being understands a new subject efficiently. So, this course has answered a lot of questions that in my mind for a long time. I recommend this course to everyone. :)

This course is well organized with clear explanations of the material. It gives the scientific fundamentals as well as strategies to improve learning ability, in some sense it helps to understand why some "habits" work. Especially liked the optional interview, particularly with Scott Young and Nelson Dellis. Highly recommended.

It was just an amazing course. I went through a rollercoaster ride throughout this course as it helped me figure out where I was exactly going wrong and how I can correct myself now . I would really recommend people to join this course and the mentors are very knowledgeable , sweet and helping. It was worth it.

Thank-you team!

It was a really great course, For all the people who want 100% achievement in their academic goals, and learning new things and mastering it. The tips and tricks mentioned in this course also helps in improving problem solving, strategy making and understating learning human psychology, that can help you in every field of life.

It makes me better. The result is the system how to work on any complicated task. I've tried a lot of different techniques that mentioned in the course, but I had no deep understanding how to really work and why is so important. I've got and understanding of my feelings and some cues what is okay, and what is okay, what is not.

Me gusto mucho este curso, a pesar que mi inglés no es tan bueno me mantuvo muy motivada y aprendiendo palabras nuevas también, trato de repasar las técnicas , gracias a los maestros que hicieron este curso tan interesante y ameno, estoy segura que las enseñanzas que nos han dado seguirán con nosotros en este camino de la vida.

The course is unimaginably useful, simple and entertaining. Barbara Oakley and Terrence Sejnowski have managed, thanks to their intelligence, friendliness and teaching and communication skills, to create a very interesting and useful course for all audiences. It has been a real pleasure to be able to enjoy learning how to learn

It starts from the actual process we try to learn, its loopholes, the brains activity inside, the outcomes, the new techniques to learn effectively.

One more thing is, they have focused on ways to tackle procastination which i know most of us are struggling with and our memory.

The interviews are must watch. I highly recommend

I believe this course should be required for everyone. And I mean everyone on earth. Every single person on earth should take this course. It is life changing. The most important course that I have ever taken. I wish I taken this course when I was younger and still in school. This course should be a requirement in every school!

This course is wonderful and bittersweet. I was the master of procrastination and "Illusions of competence." I will internalize these tools and use them on my journey through the rest of my life. I plan to teach my son, my family and friends as much as they will let me. I believe this can course and the tools can help them too.

This is a great course. Barbara's book - Mindset - originally inspired me to overcome my perceived short-comings in regards to mathematics and programming. This course is in a sense a course made out of this book. I've thoroughly enjoyed both and can recommend others to follow in doing so. Learn how to learn, you can do it too!

It is very well organized and explained course with easy tests just to recall informations (which is actually one of the techniques to better learn). It is nice to listen to Mrs Barbara's calm voice. I learned earlier how to learn but i found new very usefull techniques in this course :)

Thanks to Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski!

It is fun taking this course. I found the stuffs I learned from the course will benefit me for rest of my life. I highly recommend to people who have an open mind and willing to learn. This course required commitment. Just learn a little bit a day for 4 weeks, you will able to complete the course like I did. Happy Learning!

This was a great course that helped me realize why I was already using a lot of important learning techniques while learning new skills. The material was presented very eloquently, not to mention the subject matter is inherently interesting. It was a great pleasure taking this course and I couldn't recommend this course enough!

The course is based off cutting edge research and provides valuable advice on the best way to learn anything. Many of the concepts and ideas discussed by Barbara and Terrence resonate clearly with my experiences. One thing I would like to see in a future course is some tips on how to tackle material that isn't student friendly.

It is fantastic course, helped me learn new and powerful techniques for learning. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise to students like us. Thanks for this MOOC as many would not have the opportunity to meet you guys or study with you in college to learn these techniques. This online course has solved the problem.

Absolutely amazing course. All the material is of high quality and it's clear they've worked really hard on the structure of the course. Once I began this course it was hard for me to turn away from it!

An absolute recommendation for anyone who wish to deepen their understanding of learning in general and of their own learning.

This is one of the best courses i have ever learnt. It is exceptionally good and has provided me with over 10 new techniques and approaches to learning. On the whole, i would say this has shaped up my idea of what learning is. THANK YOU, Mrs. Barbara Oakley and Mr. Terry Sejnowski. THANK YOU Coursera for providing this course.
