Very valuable course I think people should take before they go to college or even high school. There are some very interesting concepts, such as diffuse thinking mode and chunking. I appreciate the two professors' kind demeanors. I feel very encouraged taking this course.

this course very helpful and it has very good improtant info, as well as it has great additional resources interviews with experienced people, links to useful articles .. I recommend anyone to take it and add this info to their culture basket with applying these advice.

This course seemed like something excellent to me, something that helps and tells people how to better organize each component and behavior of our mind and body to carry out some activity. I recommend this course and thank you for your time of explanation, I have loved it.

The course introduced me to a lot of information about process of learning and how our brain works that I didn't know before. Some of the tips for learning I was already doing myself but didn't understand why. And others I will include in my routine from now on. Thank you!

There were so many things I did not know about learning and sleeping and now I know that in order to be an effective learner I have to sleep to remove the metabolic toxin in my brain, not try and learn with a tired brain. Thank you for this course, I am very glad I did it.

Brilliant course! Very well structured and easy to follow. The mini quizzes are also very helpful in retaining the material. Barb is practical teacher giving us tips on how to apply research in daily tasks while Terrence gives us insights on behind the scenes neuroscience.

Im a better learner now, with an important update about how to learn. With this course I have acquired multiple new tools and methods that helps me to improve my learning. Thank you Coursera for made this course possible, Thank you Barbara & Terrence! Happy learning! :)

Excellent course! Every body should take it. I wish I had read this when I was in college. I seem to have been using only my focus mode all along. I am looking forward to using the the tools that I learnt from this course! Thanks Dr Barbara Oakley and the other professors!

The techniques and explanations learned in this course are helping my learning to have a better flow. The Pomodoro and the recall technique already helped me to overcome the procrastination barrier of a subject that I had to study and it actually worked! I recommend it!

This course is fantastic, I am at the beginning of this journey and the way I think and learn has changed and is changing a lot because of this course, I am sure that the content of this course will take the one that applies all content to success in various areas of life.

This Course is just what I needed for helping mw with my procrastination. The tools and ideas given are amazing, and Barbara is incredible in her deliverance. Very happy i am taking this course. Looking forward to my final year of my degree to put everything into practice.

i recommend this course to everyone who is serious at studies. only "effort" is not enough for success, you should know how to better utilize the effort and this is exactly what this course addresses. i am glad i was among thousands others who learned "learn how to learn".

Highly recommend this course. This is by far one of the most valuable course that I have learnt. Not only do you enhance your knowledge about human brain but you can also practice all these techniques in every aspect of your life. Please give it a try, you will love this.

Best course completed all the video lectures, quizzes, and assignments in the course's first iteration. In the Next iteration, I'll try to complete the optional honorary assignments after that I'll re-watch the video lecture to solidify my understanding of the assignment.

This is a mindset changing course. It impacted my life for sure. I have learned and used its learning strategies in my daily life. I even tought my family members and firends about what I have learnt. I'm planning to implement it in my future teaching and training events.

In terms of content and the value of what they're teaching you this is a 10/10 easily. Just wish I had learned all this when I was younger. The only negative is the video and editing quality, but that's really nitpicking and not really relevant anyway. Worth every minute.

Although I've previously earned a BA from a 4 year university, since high-school I've felt a bit lost in my learning direction. This course helped restore my confidence in my ability to learn new subjects, and provided the tools that I hope to use for the rest of my life.

The lessons I learned here gave me motivation to tackle harder subjects and even learn new things despite my age. The tone of the instructor is more cordial and rather motivational. It didn't sound like a lecture, which is rather refreshing and effective at the same time.

Türkçe altyazı seçeneğinin olması büyük bir nimet. Dersin içeriği çok dolu ve sıkılmadan, not tutarak dinliyor ve izliyorsunuz. Öğrenme şekileri üzerine yeni bilgiler elde ettim ve yaptığım hataları gördüm. Kesinlikle herkesin alması gereken bir ders olduğunu düşünüyorum.

Really good course to teach us how to learn effectively, especially how to overcome illusion of competence and procrastination, which are help me a lot. Will apply the theory to my daily learning processes. Hopefully I can learn more effectively and happily from now on :)

Great course for those who search for people who want to learn more about how our brains work and what techniques can we use to increase productivity during learning. Enjoyed the course, additional interviews with interesting people is another good thing about the course.

I learned a lot about our brain structure and learning process. And I received specific techniques for effective training, which I will try to use in the future and tell about them to my students.

Many thanks to the teachers of the course, Barbara Oakley, Terry Sejnowski!

This is definitely one of the best online courses I've ever completed. I really loved the way it was taught. The course material was backed with Scientific research papers and a lot of insights about human brain. It was a really great experience learning "How to learn" :)

This a worthwhile course that can be applied by everybody, I'm using it to set me up for further study and feel much more capable of doing so with it. The course structure has a way of getting the information to stick with you as well, which is what it's all about really.

This course may help eliminate the dogmas or wrong belief in your mind about learning, which would help build your confidence again. It also provides very useful tips and techniques to help you learn more easily and better. This is a course that might influence your life.
