I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

I've gone through this course twice because it was better than I had hoped. I can see why it is rated as highly as it is. I bought A Mind for Numbers and Learning How to Learn books.

Very refreshing. For someone who is not looking to learn something (for eg: people with stable careers), this course inspires to take up learning AGAIN!! Thanks Dr. Barb and Dr. Terry.

This course is worth every second. I don't care if you're a straight A student and have been one all your life. I was and I still learned great techniques for learning and test taking.

The course has helped pinpoint holes in old study habits that gave me the perception of learning and steered me onto the correct path of correct self testing and recalling information.

Is the first MOOC I finish! And I have been enrolled to quite a few!
I take strategies for studying that I'm already applying.
I can't mark the five stars, although I've clicked on them.

I wish I was exposed to this kind of information in my first year of university. Nonetheless, it's definitely still relevant.
Many thanks to all those involved in preparing this course.

Great course. I put some of the tips to work and it helped me to not follow through with some learning goals but also to feel free from the burden of constantly feeling behind my work.

I have learnt of productive learning ways which make me wish I had known this way back in high school and university studies. It's never too late though, I am a different learner now.
