Very interesting course. Learning how to learn is important for us, because homo sapiens due evolution are design to learn in jungle or deserts or country land but as we have live in earth from 200 hundred years ago (and before) and fast changes make that us need to learn diferent to master tecnologies and knowledge.

I can highly recommend this course to learners of all ages. I feel I got a lot out of it and wish that I had taken it many years earlier in my life. I'm now encouraging my kids (one in high school, one in college) to take it. I'm convinced both will benefit from it a lot and become better and more efficient learners.

An absolutely phenomenal course. I will recommend this to all of my students and colleagues. The course design, techniques and delivery were excellent. I appreciate the time and thought put into every detail as well as the humor and personal touches. It was worth every minute and will be useful in many walks of life.

Wow, I'm pretty impressed, I'm doing this course now for a week [2nd approach] and I can see the first results already. I'm confident now to handle a lot more tasks than ever before and yes I'm happy.

If you have some struggle with learning, here you can figure out effective and useful ways to approach it.

Good luck!

Amazing!! It gives tools that are very useful, it's nice to watch, easy, and it also explains many of our behaviours and habits in a very useful way. I love it and I think it can be useful for learners but also for teachers because it gives a new perspective on how we learn and the best ways of approaching knowledge.

This is an Awesome course ! it's a "page -turner".. it is so deep yet easy to understand and incorporate into your daily life..i Just Love it ! I would like to thank the instructors especially Dr Barbara Oakley for her efforts to make this course easy and comprehensive for everyone !

Highly Recommended for Everyone !

Excellent tutors and material.I am 59 years old now and wish I had known this stuff when I was at school and before I decided to go into further education,at the age of 30. I would have even got a better grade than I did for my degree. I think this course should be part of any school's / college curriculum Thank you.

I so thoroughly enjoyed this course Barb Oakley is wonderful and engaged me the whole time. I will be reviewing this course as much as I can over the months to get those "chunks" into my head. Testing always has me concerned but the advise here made a lot of sense, like getting a good sleep the night before!! Thanks

Really useful to anyone who wants to learn or teach a lot but has never had a clue on how to do it in the most optimal way. Having this knowledge has allowed me to understand why I wasn't learning much and how I could improve my note-taking methods and learning habits so what I learn sticks for longer, even forever.

Один из лучших курсов на Coursera. Действительно эффективные методы, которые изменят вашу учебную жизнь к лучшему. Огромная благодарность всем профессионалам и участникам интервью, которые были причастны к созданию данного курса. Это дополнительно мотивировало и создавало условия для достижения личных учебных целей.

So First , a lot of thanks to Coursera and Syrian youth assembly to give me this chance to start online courses and learning new things .

The course was very interesting and useful in all respects, and I learned a lot from him through explanations and examples

thanks to Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski .

That's just wonderful! So many suggestions to improve a process solving difficult problems, learning something new and tricky things. Unlike other sources of the tricks described here, in this course it's explained why these techniques work. That's really very useful. Especially for me, who doesn't believe in magic.

This was the very first I enrolled since joining Coursera. It blew me away. Barb has a way to keep your attention.

Regarding the content: very good stuff. A lot of thinks I did not know. Please don't skip over the optional interviews. These provide great insights of how very successful people deal with this subject.

I'm really glad I took this course. I was able to understand how learning works scientifically. With the concepts I learned, I was able to manage my study time and approach my learning efficiently. The course didn't only taught be about learning, it also inspired me to learn more. I definitely recommend this course.

This course is thought provoking and a game changer. The techniques learned in this curriculum can be grown and developed upon for a lifetime of learning. If you have been out of school for a while or even had some bad experiences, this is a good place to start. Thank you Dr's Barbara Oakley and Terrence Sejnowski.

I want to congratulate Doctors Barbara Oakley and Terry Sejnowski for such a wonderful program. The content of the course is extraordinary. I'm fascinated and much more committed to my teaching-learning processes. Flawless, loving content and excellent research. Thank you very, very much, it has been very valuable.

Even though it didn't cover my specific hang-ups on studying, it changed the way I look at learning for the better. Chalk full of good advice and lovely presenters. I would recommend this to everyone, even if you're great at studying already. Getting a deeper understanding of how your brain functions is invaluable.

I've had learning difficulties ever since I was a child. The information in this course has helped me be effective in my studies for the first time in my life. I've also enjoyed the course greatly and recommended it to friends. It's been fun to do and extremely helpful. I've actually been excited to do my lessons !

Proporciona herramientas sumamente simples y útiles, tanto para aprender a estudiar, fragmentar el conocimiento y permitir acceder a el mas rápido, así como formas de facilitar el proceso de memorizar. Adicionalmente brinda estrategias ante la resolución de exámenes complejos y como salir airosos!!! Muchas gracias!

This was a great course. As someone who is trying to learn coding and doing my MA in English Literature, I desperately needed to learn how to learn and quick. This course helped me by giving me simple and easy techniques that I can work on to study effectively. Thank you SO much to everyone who worked on this MOOC.

I am very impressed by the course material and how overqualified the instructors are, dedicating their time to provide students with a wealth of information at no cost. There is a sincere motive behind their teachings and if one truly engages in the class, they too will uncover hidden potential within their brain.

Cours très intéressant, excessivement accessible même si l'audio n'est qu'en anglais (le sous-titrage aidant sur des termes techniques). Je recommande volontiers ce cours à quiconque serait curieux d'en apprendre davantage sur comment notre cerveau fonctionne et comment l'aider à être performant durant des examens.

I learned many new techniques in this course that I am very excited to turn into habits. This course can help anyone learn more about how their brain works when it comes to learning new ideas and concepts. I gained a true understanding of many ideas that I had heard about previously or even experienced on my own.

Learning How to Learn has given me more insights on how our brain functions. By understanding these basic concepts, I have learnt tips on how to make a difference in studying and mastering new things, retaining information as well as to build confidence in my learning journey. It is a great course for all learners!
