I specially like the optional interviews. These learning case studies are quite insightful and you might just find a something that you can relate to, which might help in the grand scheme of things :)

I thoroughly enjoyed this courses. The lectures were insightful and well presented. I am currently employing some of the techniques that I have learned. I struggle with procrastination, and the idea of focusing on the process and not the product is helping me to get tasks completed, when I previously procrastinated. I think every student should do this course.

Fantastic course, for me the first one at 糖心vlog官网观看 and it was definitely more valuable than I expected. They not only give you insights of learning and several functions of the brain, they also give you concreet tools to use right away.
I am sure all the things I have learned in this course are applicable for every one, despite age or background.

This is an excellent course. I was having difficulty controlling procrastination and my academic performance was terrible before this course. But now even though I haven't finished yet, I'm able to control procrastination and my productivity soared and it has in turn increased my self-confidence. A million thanks to all those involved in preparing this course!

I must say that at first I did not think this course would be of much help, but I am sooooo happy and proud to say I was wrong. This course should honestly be a mandatory course for High Schoolers and up. Great job by the two professors, you guys really put learning into a new perspective for me & truly assisted in making me a better learner. Thank you again!

Brilliant, both the lecturers were very engaging and teaching the subject with passion. Now I realize that I should have done this course 20 years before. But having said, I am fortunate to come across this material and do the course. I love it and strongly recommend to young learners and of course all levels and age of learners. Keep learning - How to Learn.

Great introduction into getting back into the studying and learning mode. I have been out of school for over 25 years. This course has shown me what steps, skills and methods I need to apply to allow me to start learning again. It corrected alot of my bad habits and showed me what I was doing wrong. I wish I would have had this course in my high school years.

this course has changed my view on "Learning". The tools, the techniques, the methods are given by Professor Terrence Sejnowski and Barbara Oakley are so effective that I could see the difference in my approach to a subject within days of enrolling myself in the course. Now I am able to approach a new subject with a new perspective and think "out of the Box"

I enjoyed the class so much, I purchased Dr. Oakley's book and signed onto the follow-up course! In this course, I discovered key ways the mind works in relation to learning and how to use those aspects to my advantage. I'm no stranger to learning, but it was revealing to discover how to learn in better, more efficient ways than I have in the past. Thank you!

This course should be priority number 1 for everyone, especially those seeking personal development. The content is Basic but important concepts about how we process new information and store it in our memory. Is memorization the same as learning? In addition to learning how to study properly, you will benefit from the knowledge in many other areas of life!

This course has been a boon. It has solved the greatest mystery in a student's life :). We know what to study, our teachers tell us that this will be in the exam, they give us set questions. But no one teaches us how to study, how to read the textbook, how to efficiently use our time studying. How to get up and start studying. How to remember what you learn.
