This is a life-changing course. I struggled with learning techniques all my life, not even knowing, what i lacked? Now, i feel like i have the tools that can make study fun for me, as it should be. Thank you Dr. Sejnovski and Dr Oakley. Lots of love.

Really insightful material and points about learning. Everyone should take this course to enhance their study habits, internalize their learning subjects and essentially change their view of learning as a whole (at least this is what happened to me).

This course was very fun to take, I enjoyed watching the optional interviews they had at the end of each module. And the main concepts were always brought up in a review so there were no surprises during the tests. I would recommend this to a friend.

If you want to know what is the right way to learn this is the course. It will explain to you what is going on in your brain while studying/learning. It also points out the misconceptions regarding the methods of learning. Recommend for all learners.

I have learned powerful techniques that are sure to help me in the future when I pursue my second bachelor's degree. I can now see the many errors I made with my studies during my pursuit of my engineering degree. Thank you for putting this together.

Great lesson! I've got a lot of useful information and handy techniques about how to learn. It's the kind of things that I can use myself and apply to teaching. I've also improved my self-confidence through great assignment comments by my Mooc mates.

Очень познавательный и полезный курс. Проблема лишь в интернациональности. Из-за того, что все тестовые задания написаны на английском языке, я не смог проверить свои знания. Однако качество и полезность материалов самого курса это никак не убавляет.

The content of the course and structure of learning are just great! Visual side - not so good. It's not beautiful. It's quite the opposite.. BUT I still think it's a great course. It would have been even greater if it would be beautifully "packed"

I'm pretty good at math without consciously knowing why (I used to assume it a math talent). Now I realize the core function behind learning. And I become more confident to conquer other fields of hard science such as statistics and computer science.

Como profesor universitario encuentro este curso muy útil, tanto para reflexionar sobre cómo mejorar el aprendizaje de los estudiantes en las materias que impartimos, así como en reflexionar sobre nuestras propias ideas de cómo aprendemos a aprender.

Excellent Course! I consider it a portal that would enable one achieve more and better, and most importantly understand and master tough and challenging subjects. It's the tool that would enroll at more courses in Coursera and earn more certificates.

I truly enjoyed this class! I really felt like I was having a difficult time not only remembering things, but learning new things, too. This class helped me to understand more about the way the brain works, to process information you want to retain.

I found the course very informative. I now have a full toolbox of learning techniques. The information about procrastination made me take a hard look in the mirror. I started using the techniques to overcome procrastination before the course end.

This course contains many pieces of information that you might already know, but with an explanation of neuroscientific and psychological basis. I am sure that it was really helpful for me and boosted my desire to study as well. Thank you very much!
