Great course! This is a lot more general than Learning about Learning but is also useful nonetheless. I like the focus on keeping positive and being confident in your potential despite our weaknesses.

I enjoyed this course very much. I am 64-years-old and this course taught me that you can learn anything new no matter what age you are. I am now broadening my passions and learning is a lot more fun.

This course teaches about having a growth mindset and personal development. The instructors spoke clearly and communicated their ideas in an accessible, engaging and easy-to-understand format. However, I thought this course was only average. The syllabus seems disjointed and incohesive. I didn't understand the rationale for the themes for different weeks. I was also disappointed with the assessments. The answers were either very obvious or required to know word-for-word what the instructor said- in that sense, you didn't apply the knowledge that was taught to you and ironically, is counter-intuitive to the ideas that was being taught in Mindshift.

It was an entertaining course but the title is misleading. Only the first part regarding breaking through obstacles to learn was true. "Discover your hidden potential" is a big claim and unfortunately the course material didn't deliver as promised. It felt like the the same old "selling shovels in the gold rush" tactic. Maybe a title like that provides some confidence and hope to people that have not been able to focus in their studies but I think promising to "discover a hidden potential" is too uncertain to declare.

OK, felt like Learning to Learn (btw excellent course) rehash. I felt this course was a bit muddled, was trying to ascertain what their focus was, career prep? paradigm shifts? epiphanies? learning and studying habits? neurology? Some good points, like the value of being open to learning skills that are completely out of your area of supposed expertise and having a growth mindset, but I felt the presentation lacked focus and didn't translate their background reference material (which was great to read in my own time)

A fairly good primer for anyone who wants to get started with MOOCs and online courses. I assume that the materials and videos are recorded in 2016, but there are some of the stuff taught that may have been outdated such as the Pomodoro Technique.
My grips with this course is that a lot of the lectures and explanations are too shallow and vague for the students who expected in-depth learning. I feel like this is more of a motivational courses akin to reading a self-help book if anything.

Pretty good, although not awesome. I took the previous course, Learning How to Learn, which covered a lot of the same material and with more depth than this Mindshift course. However, this course did have some additional info I found helpful and although they didn't have as many interviews, the ones they included tended to be more beneficial and interesting in my opinion.Also, the editing and video style and animations were much more advanced and modern than Learning How to Learn.

Overall the course itself was good. However I do have a problem with the assignments/discussions obligating you to be personal with a bunch of strangers. I understand that it helps, but not everyone likes talking or discussing their personal goals, values, life, plans, past, etc. I found it very difficult to partake in those assignments/discussions. However that is just my personality (which is why I gave it a lower rating). Sorry.

The first two weeks had great information, but then weeks 3 and 4 go into areas that didn't seem to match the content from the first two weeks. I also did the Learning How To Learn course, which did a much better job teaching the skills I was looking for.
Also - the videos are tediously short. When I'm sitting down to focus, the frequent interruptions to advance to the next short video were distracting,

Learning how to learn is and excellent course. This course doesn't provide what i was hoping for. I really don't care how MOOCs are made and how you can buy green screen online. It is unneceseary long, covers everything and covers nothing at the same time. However, advices from people in Optional Bonus Videos helped me a lot.
