The Masterpiece of the Guide on learning how to learn.

Especially the teacher like Barbara Oakley and Terrence Sejnowski is the best teachers in the course. The course completely overviews the process of learning and helps you learn strategies for your life by changing the perspective of seeing through the tools on learning.

This course provides great tips for becoming a more advanced thinker and learner. I would encourage anyone to take this course who is looking to maximize their potential. This course is aimed at college students but I believe that professionals looking to expand upon their skills will also benefit from learning how to learn.

Great course! THanks for the paced interleaved sessions :)

WIsh there was a continual mechanism we could come back to and build on our learning as time goes on. I think this was a great courses introducing us to important concepts in learning how to learn and not just what to learn. Hopefully can get rid of bad habits myself.

Excellent course! This course should be mandatory for everyone, the content is so good. Even the optional videos are excellent and quite valuable. The content is presented in a simple and easy to digest format. Yet the principles are explained in a powerful fashion. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn better.

Great course! The overall structure is very good and introduces new ideas step by step. The course is easy to follow and really has long-term impact - the learned material can be beneficially used in nearly all areas of life and improve them greatly. In only 4 weeks my studying has revolutionized and my grades have gone up.

Great course! I will recommend it to colleges and students. Anyone should know how to learn. I had the same thoughts about learning, this course helped me to pack and confirm my approaches. I liked a scientific base of all material and its good presentation by teachers. Thanks to the team of authors! I enjoyed the course.

actually, when I first time hared about this course I was so excited because it is on the idea no one tells you about (how to learn) and also a lot od the idea that the course mentioned I already know from youtube but

generally, the course is great it has a lot of useful tips for taking tests and information about the mind.

The course is interesting and practical in approach.

The instructors are highly skilled in their approaches. This course has help me to improve in learning because i now know some of the various techniques of learning that have been proven to be effective through research.

Thank you so much for the course! It approaches the essential information in a simple and perfectly digestable way. The course gave me a whole lot of useful tips for basic life challenges: studying, personal projects and professional growth. I will definitely use techniques and ideas presented in this course on daily basis.

This course helped me re-establish an approach to learning, something I will continually practice throughout the rest of my life. With clear-cut examples backed with scientific studies, the contents of this course and the effective use of metaphors/analogies, my confidence in learning has improved dramatically. Thank you!!!

Before completing this course, I had struggled with my studying because I did not know how to digest all the knowledge and information effectively. But through each session, I gradually get a hold of how to chunk the information, how to link them together and use them in the test effectively. I highly recommend this course.

This course is very practical and the knowledge gained is balanced by plenty of opportunities to work things out and actually use them. I highly recommend this course for everybody! I've passed on a link to this course to my son, if that tells you anything about the degree to which I believe this course is just plain GREAT!

This course is enlightening . I learned things about how my own brain works that I would have never come up with on my own. I imagine tha I will benefit greatly from this course in my further studying.

I recommend this course for anyone who ahs issues with test taking or wants to get even better results on their test taking.

If you've ever struggled in a subject, I highly suggest taking this course. Dr. Oakley helps to guide you into being the best learner you can be. There are also several interviews by professionals who talk about the brain or their own experiences with training their brain in order to learn a difficult subject.

Go Grizzlies!

One of the MOST useful courses I have ever taken. Already using all of the techniques and achieved distinction level grades in my degree in Earth Sciences. Cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Oakley.

If you want to learn anything better, if you want to help your kids succeed in school teach them how learn with this course.

Excelente curso. Cambió mi forma de ver como aprender y conocer algunas formas de mejorar este complejo proceso. Por otra parte, aprendí conceptos nuevos que desconocía, estos me ayudarán a mejorar cada que quiera aprender algo nuevo. Además, los consejos son fantásticos y sin duda los pondré en práctica. ¡Muchas gracias!

Fantastic course, the materials are very well made and the lessons are invaluable! I would definitely recommend this course to anyone from students to adults who have been working, learning new things is essential thus it is vital that we all understand a bit about our brain, our memory and know how to learn something new.

This course was fantastic! The structure made it very easy to follow and to understand the concepts.

Initially, I wanted to understand procrastination, and memory but I learned so much more. I am exicted to keep learning and taking more courses

Thank you Barbara and Dr. Terrence - I really feel likeI personally know you!

This course helped me a lot by getting an insightful idea about different effective techniques and strategies that can help people to learn better and solve issues related to procrastination, memory and stress management. All of these tips were backed with solid scientific work and presented in a friendly professional way.

Found this MOOC, and Mindshift while searching for an intro to computer science MOOC. Couldn't be more happy I took it. Absolutely take this class, everyone. The topics, and lessons are well worth everyone's time and attention. Even if you already think you know how to learn. Much food for thought in this one. Peace.

This is my second review.

This is an amazing course on learning techniques, explained bite-sized.

The course material, the instructors, the sequence of lessons, the clarity of the videos, the supplementary content is worthy of appreciation.

Thanks to everyone in Coursera who made it possible. We owe it to you, one and all.

This course is incredible. It really changed the way I used to think about learning and the mind. The professors (specially Barbara Oakley) are really charismatic and didatic, they can make you pay attention and understand complex concepts in a very simple way. I am very grateful to have had this course, thank you so much!

A lot of thanks to Barbara Oakley and her colleagues! I think this course is essential for everybody. I wish I had known all these technics when I was a student. It helps me to be more effective in my work performance (I can handle procrastination and frustration) and my everyday life. I feel more fulfilled and confident.
