About the Course

This course gives you easy access to the invaluable learning techniques used by experts in art, music, literature, math, science, sports, and many other disciplines. We’ll learn about how the brain uses two very different learning modes and how it encapsulates (“chunks”) information. We’ll also cover illusions of learning, memory techniques, dealing with procrastination, and best practices shown by research to be most effective in helping you master tough subjects. Using these approaches, no matter what your skill levels in topics you would like to master, you can change your thinking and change your life. If you’re already an expert, this peep under the mental hood will give you ideas for turbocharging successful learning, including counter-intuitive test-taking tips and insights that will help you make the best use of your time on homework and problem sets. If you’re struggling, you’ll see a structured treasure trove of practical techniques that walk you through what you need to do to get on track. If you’ve ever wanted to become better at anything, this course will help serve as your guide. This course can be taken independent of, concurrent with, or prior to, its companion course, Mindshift. (Learning How to Learn is more learning-focused, and Mindshift is more career-focused.) A related course by the same instructors is Uncommon Sense Teaching.

Considero que los presentadores están bien preparados para impartir y simplificar las ideas que dieron. Los videos podrían mejorar significativamente invirtiendo en elementos visuales, pero me agradó bastante en general :)

Really great course. I was totally surprised by how much I did not know about learning. Recall and quizzes were always annoying to me and now I know why! They challenge your brain in ways rereading do not! Thanks so much!

Barbara Oakley does a good job of presenting course material in the videos. I find her relatable. The course has helped me review and learn some new things about studying that I hadn't made a really aware connection to.

This course is great even for audit learning like me. Just a tip to fully benefit from this course is to also watch the optional videos on the interviews. There a plenty of gems in there, which I do apply and them helped.
