An excellent course in understanding simple techniques to improve the learning process. I use these methods of learning to overcome the innate prorastination I go through on a regular basis. I would like to thank Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski for sharing this wonderful course with the world.

Love love loved this course - read the corresponding book and recommend both to anyone who will listen. I have implemented many of the techniques not just in my own learning and time management efforts - but for my crew at work. The follow up material keeps the learning going - Great stuff!

An excellent course by Dr. Terrence Sejnowski and Dr. Barbara Oakley that provides practical techniques like active recall and spaced repetition. The use of metaphors and analogies makes complex concepts easy to grasp. Highly recommended for anyone looking to improve their learning skills.

I wish I know about this techniques when I was an undergraduate or even a graduate student. But the good thing, my learning has not stopped yet, so, this is an excellent way to learn new things. Thank you, Dr. Barbara Oakley, and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski (That running thing, it works magic!)

It really supported and motivated me with my leanings of Web Development. My greatest takeaway is that learning takes not only place while concentrating on something. But also sports, sleep and giving yourself time on a topic is fundamental to better and faster really understand something.

Excellent MOOC. J'ai énormément appris sur la science de l'apprentissage. Je dispose maintenant de plein d'outils pour aborder le travail et la vie plus sereinement.

Ce cours est à mettre entre toutes les mains.

Merci infiniment aux formateurs, et à tous ceux qui ont travaillé sur le cours.

Very usefull course if you do not know anything about how the learning process works, how your brains works, what are the common problems to tackle when you are trying to study something hard and how to overcome them with easy and different techniques. ln general fulfilled my expectations.

I really liked this course ! I learned so much with it and I can't wait to apply everything I learned- I already started applying some things. I highly recommend following this course. I learned so much about how my brain works and what to do to be more efficient and learn in a better way.

Very helpful to others out there. It will increase your efficiency on learning new subjects and brining more stronger concept or theory of it applying all the materials or tools and methods discussed in the video. Well done especially to the instructors involved. They explained it so well.

Thank you for creating an encouraging class. Learning, facts and science is invaluable, but without encouragement, being pursistant and confident when learning it is very hard to stay productive and learn to the best of the brain's potential. Thank you I look forward to the follwing weeks.

Great course! There are a lot of practical techniques and tools introduced in the course. Also, the professors explained the science behind some common behaviors or feelings. Hopefully I am forming a better learning habit. At least I am handling procrastination according to the videos now!

This course is great! It's very helpful and useful to me. When I use the technique "Pomodoro" , It did help me finished the works I procrastinate for some times. It worked. There are many other techniques in this course are waiting for you to discover. Hope you enjoy learning like I do.

This is by far the best course I have taken on Coursera. It reminds me of the techniques that I have long been abandoned and introduces intriguing part on improving myself. This one is simply brilliant. I will definitely recommend this course to any full-time undergraduate student to take!

This is an absolutely excellent course which should be taught in schools. I have founded a coding school ( https://agileroo.com) where I teach kids how to code - I will introduce a special module called "Learning how to lean", since the material is much needed for all kids and teenagers.

The course is simply Wow! the basic fundamentals techniques to learn this will help full for each and every student and employee who are looking for the career growth. I really felt happy for getting classes from doctorates and researches and sharing their valuable knowledge and thoughts.

Really enjoyed the course and gained helpful insights on how our brains work and how we can use techniques to make learning more effective. The things I have learned through this course will be helpful in whatever things that I go on learning. Thankful for the team for making such course.

I really enjoyed this course Learning How to Learn because it taught me how to learn, memorize, and how to be a better test taker. I also really liked watching all the videos as well. THe professors were excellent as well to learn from. I would definately reccomend this course to others.

The truth is that I love learning, I'm always seeking new opportunities to learn. The quality of content of this course exceeds my expectations, and the lecturer, Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski, was superb. Thank you so much.

This is one the best MOOCs I've ever encountered.

'Learning how to Learn' has been a great course to take before undertaking other online courses. Such a detailed layout of best study habits, how to overcome common memory problems and the latest in learning techniques, makes it a must when getting back into a learning phase in my career.

To summarize,

I can't find the words to describe this incredible and great course, it was very helpful for me and for my classmates too.

Now, we can recognize how our minds work and react so we can use efficient ways and techniques for better learning.

Thanks for teaching us how to learn!

A wonderful course to get you out of a study rut and bust your inefficient study habits. The instructors, Barb & Terry, were sweet, friendly and very reassuring. Loved the course and would recommend it to anyone in the need of some motivation and tips for the next big test they're taking!

This is an inspiring journey. I highly recommend it to anyone who has crises of faith when seeking out new knowledge that is within your reach but just lingering out of your grasp. If it were up to me I'd make it compulsory for everyone who joined the full-time workforce every 12 months.

You can learn a lot about the learning process and how to learn more efficiently. It worths to take this course, the benefits are great if one applies the methods and techniques show through the course. And being aware of how your brain works in the learning process is also very helpful.

I wish i had this information when i was at university. but now that i have it, i will apply several techniques for my everyday learning tasks. Mostly for work. I also want to transmit some of them to my little daughter when she start school, so learning effectively will be a way of life.

This really helped me tackle procrastination and get excited about my work. It helped me improve focus that now helps me focus so much better and get so much out of my day. I no longer have to work longer; instead this has taught me to work smarter and get more done. Very valuable course!
