This course introduced many important concepts and tools like "focus mode vs diffuse mode of thinking", "chunking","illusion of competence"..etc. It may be the very basic knowledge about mental function, neurons, and some sort of neuroscience, but it's like a gate opens a new world for you to know your self learning mode and help you in some extend to more focus on the points that needs to be improved. Very great course!

Learning how to learn has never been easier and more fun! This course is an invaluable aid to learn ANYTHING. It provides 'know-how' and confidence in your ability to master any subject matter. The techniques provided to deal with procrastination have significantly impacted my life. I am grateful to 糖心vlog官网观看 and to instructors Terrence Sejnowsi and especially Barbara Oakley for making learning such a pleasure. Thank you!

The course has provided valuable insights into the cognitive processes of learning. As a teacher, I agree that all the information given in the course is true to my experience. This helps me to understand my learners better and to guide them well while dealing with complex topics in their learning. I suggest every parent, child and teacher must aware of this information while dealing with children and their learning.

This is a great course that teaches not only how to learn but how to work and make the best of the energy and time we put into our endeavours. The teacher麓s very honest and slow passed approach turns out to be very relaxing and enjoyable, to the contrary of most of the modern high passed youtube videos and tutorials out there. Very recommended for EVERYONE looking to learn about the brain and how to make the best of it.

I loved this course! Full of useful and sound recommendations. Based on real science. I'm planning on applying it to my teaching and to the several subjects I'm constantly learning. I personally don't like the several mentions to zombies and alike, for a couple of times it made me question if the course was for teenagers (I'm 40 yo!). But the information is very well presented and valuable, I would definitely recommend.

This is an amazing course and will help all in their pursuit of higher learning, It teaches techniques that are are both practical and easy to implement such as the focused and diffused modes, the use of metaphors and analogy in learning, the importance of rest and repetition (a little bit every day to learn and grow) achieving mastery in your subject area plus overcoming procrastination with the Pomodoro technique etc.

Barbara is a fun professor to listen to. The jokes and analogies can be terribly cheesy but they are memorable! I wish I had taken this course years before starting univeristy studies. It explains how the brain works to process, learn, and memorize information and gives practical tips anyone can implement when trying to learn new material. This is a valuable course that has already enhanced my learning over the 4 weeks.

I expected this to be another cringy middle-school-esque lesson on how to highlight properly and reread information but I was pleasantly surprised to be immersed in a science-based, highly effective course that actually kept my ADHD brain intrigued and invested. The skills you learn here are fact-based, proven methodologies from wo very reliable and fun-to-watch individuals and I would recommend this course to anyone.

I found this course interesting and wish it would have been available when I was in college the first time or even high school. What I enjoyed the most was how learning concepts that I鈥檝e come across through my adult life have been gathered up and organized in easy to follow presentations. I think this material is so important that I鈥檝e asked my teenage daughter entering high school this fall to go through this course.

This was a great course! I followed three years ago, and it is great because it provides not only techniques (this is great!) to improve your learning process but, also, the background/basis for these techniques, and the scientific evidence for this background, as well. This means that it provides you with powerful tools to improve your learning process on your own, (and, in my case, my students' learning process).

It's so helpful for me because now, I can learn how to improve myself and how to learn new skills effectively. This course also help me to recover from my self loath habit (when I failed to make some good result in work). From this course, I learn more about my brain, how to think and learn effectively. I learn so many things and I will recommend many people to take this course. Thank you, Mrs Barbara and Mr Sejnowski.

This course confirm some point of view that I already had and show me new scientific informations and methods to study, memorize and prepare to tests. The interviews are interesting too because enphasize some concepts and aggregate some particular way to lead with circunstances. I think this course is useful to everybody and I intend to restart in in some months to check what I retained and learn again what I forgot.

Though I am a master student, I must say this course helps me much in understanding not only how to study but also myself. The strategies to learn in a more effective way are presented clear, concise, and easy to follow and practice. Moreover, there are lots of additional articles that worth the effort of expanding your understanding about learning approaches. This is a must take course for those seeking the knowledge.

Highly recommend this very useful course. Done accelerated learning techniques in the past but as it turns out these can often create ilusions of competence. The scientific validity of the ideas presented make this an extremely valuable course for anyone serious about improving their learning, memorisation and test taking skill as well as making better use of that wonderful miracle of creation we have between our ears.

This is my very first course on 糖心vlog官网观看. I benefitted from it tremendously. Really appreciate the teaching, the material and design of the course. I have a lot more to say in details but just don't want to waste your time here. Please go ahead and check it out yourself.
I am in my 50s and facing memory loss and shortened focus as few of many other challenges in life. This course is greatly helpful.
Happy learning! :-)

I felt this course gave me practical tools to enhance my studying and increase my learning. I purchased the optional book, and found that reading it after completing the lectures helped to solidify the concepts learned during lectures. Barbara and Terry put together an excellent program. I regret I did not have sufficient time to view all the optional videos, but I'm hoping to go back and view them in the coming weeks.

Fantastic - I love the ease with which the materials are presented, and the way they relate to real-life situations. Barbara's relaxed attitude fills you with confidence as you go through the course and Terry's wealth of knowledge adds so much credibility to the information given. Genuinely a great learning experience that has motivated me to learn more and has opened my mind into how we learn. Thank you both so much.

This course is absolutely crucial to those who wanted to learn new subjects and concepts. Dr Barbara Oaklay and Dr. Terry Sejnowisky are amazing teachers who really know their stuff very well. especially, the interviews of real world heroes and heroines of learning is really motivating. after completing this course, I feel that I am ready to learn new languages and scientific concepts outside of my field of expertise.

The material of the course is great, but I personally was impressed more of how modest, devoted and supportive teachers were. Especially that positive soothing manner of professor Barbara Oakley, i think, makes this course exclusive. Also all that metaphors of zombies, vampires etc., dynamic presentations really helped to keep attention and learn material. I'm so grateful for this opportunity of learning how to learn!

It has been great experience to attend this unique course. A very important topic on which this course is based is going to be helpful to every student. In this course the reasons why some people do not get mastery of subject in spite of spending huge amount of time and energy are elaborately discussed and the techniques to overcome those reasons are also mentioned.
I would recommend every student to take this course .

This course is amazing! It provides a scientifically supported practical toolkit for successful learning. I wish I could learn it before my academic studies because it would definitely make my life easier and my learning experience more effective and relaxed. Fortunately, now I can share it with my children and also use some insights for achieving my career goals and "sharpening the saw". Thanks a lot, Barb and Terry!

This is an excellent course - I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning especially people who believe that they CANNOT learn certain things AFTER a certain age. I am deeply grateful to the two very knowledgeable and learned instructors for the confidence instilled in me for learning newer things effectively.
What one learns with pleasure, one never forgets. This course pretty much satisfies that criterion.
