Amazing. These were practically things I have learned throughout my successful academic career by trial and error but it was absolutely eye-opening to see that these are actual, recognized techniques. Obviously I did not know all of these techniques, so the course was instructional as well.

This course was one of the most helpful courses I encountered. I really helped me in learning how to learn properly. Techniques like the Pomodoro-Technique are now a great asset to my arsenal! I feel more achieved and I know how to get myself out of a slump and remotivate myself. Thank you!

The field I am in needs constant learning and updates. Before this course i was not confident and a little scared to update myself, but after the techniques learned in this course i am confident about future learning. Thanks to Barb and her team also Coursera bringing us such a good course.

Love love loved this course - read the corresponding book and recommend both to anyone who will listen. I have implemented many of the techniques not just in my own learning and time management efforts - but for my crew at work. The follow up material keeps the learning going - Great stuff!

An excellent course by Dr. Terrence Sejnowski and Dr. Barbara Oakley that provides practical techniques like active recall and spaced repetition. The use of metaphors and analogies makes complex concepts easy to grasp. Highly recommended for anyone looking to improve their learning skills.

I wish I know about this techniques when I was an undergraduate or even a graduate student. But the good thing, my learning has not stopped yet, so, this is an excellent way to learn new things. Thank you, Dr. Barbara Oakley, and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski (That running thing, it works magic!)

It really supported and motivated me with my leanings of Web Development. My greatest takeaway is that learning takes not only place while concentrating on something. But also sports, sleep and giving yourself time on a topic is fundamental to better and faster really understand something.

Very helpful to others out there. It will increase your efficiency on learning new subjects and brining more stronger concept or theory of it applying all the materials or tools and methods discussed in the video. Well done especially to the instructors involved. They explained it so well.

Thank you for creating an encouraging class. Learning, facts and science is invaluable, but without encouragement, being pursistant and confident when learning it is very hard to stay productive and learn to the best of the brain's potential. Thank you I look forward to the follwing weeks.

Great course! There are a lot of practical techniques and tools introduced in the course. Also, the professors explained the science behind some common behaviors or feelings. Hopefully I am forming a better learning habit. At least I am handling procrastination according to the videos now!

This is by far the best course I have taken on Coursera. It reminds me of the techniques that I have long been abandoned and introduces intriguing part on improving myself. This one is simply brilliant. I will definitely recommend this course to any full-time undergraduate student to take!

This is an absolutely excellent course which should be taught in schools. I have founded a coding school ( https://agileroo.com) where I teach kids how to code - I will introduce a special module called "Learning how to lean", since the material is much needed for all kids and teenagers.
