Mindshift was well laid out and very easy to follow. Barbara Oakley is very accessible and explains things well. I love the idea that any of us can learn anything at any age with time and practice. I look forward to trying these techniques as I take more courses.

I couldn't be more thankful to the professors who created this useful and motivating online class. I enrolled this class as the first MOCC and it was really good to start with Mindshift class. If you are new to MOCC, this is the best recommended class to start with.

This course has broaden my dimensions of thinking and vision about learning. Instead of conventional approaches we should revisit our potentials and we will find under-rated skills which are playing an important role in our success so far. Thanks for this mindshift!

The course was very good, I had many new perspectives and thought more about my way of thinking. I really like the metaphor of a double-ended yellow pencil as if you need to expand your passion, challenge a lot, and learn more about your forte. Thank you ~ everyone

Wonderful course! very interesting and useful. I enjoyed a lot because the teachers were excellent. It is a pity it is short.... I think this kind of course should be available for all the students at the Secondary School, because it helps you to open your mind.

I think this is a great MOOC to get you into MOOCing and therefore getting the necessary skills to do a real mindshift.
On the other hand many of the ideas here are not new, but are presented under a different light therefore making it more interesting.
Really good!!
