Me gusto el curso, te enseña aspectos que no son del dominio publico.
Ya lo termine y no se como saber si quedo algo pendiente, creo que conteste todos los examens con excelente calificación, como hago para recibir mi certificado.

This course brought new concepts in the way people learn, and made me re-evaluate my way of thinking. There are a lot of benefits by taking this course, but you should have an open mind and learn how to learn with other methods.

Didn't know how memory or our brain work till I finished this course. Coursera users are interested in learning / improving ourselves, why not starting from this course to apply those techniques you've acquired on your learning!

An amazing journey inside the brain and how its inner cogs and gears can be used to our advantage, especially when one needs to learn new things, break harmful habits and make the best out of his studying. Absolutely recommended.
