Best course completed all the video lectures, quizzes, and assignments in the course's first iteration. In the Next iteration, I'll try to complete the optional honorary assignments after that I'll re-watch the video lecture to solidify my understanding of the assignment.

This is a mindset changing course. It impacted my life for sure. I have learned and used its learning strategies in my daily life. I even tought my family members and firends about what I have learnt. I'm planning to implement it in my future teaching and training events.

In terms of content and the value of what they're teaching you this is a 10/10 easily. Just wish I had learned all this when I was younger. The only negative is the video and editing quality, but that's really nitpicking and not really relevant anyway. Worth every minute.

Although I've previously earned a BA from a 4 year university, since high-school I've felt a bit lost in my learning direction. This course helped restore my confidence in my ability to learn new subjects, and provided the tools that I hope to use for the rest of my life.

The lessons I learned here gave me motivation to tackle harder subjects and even learn new things despite my age. The tone of the instructor is more cordial and rather motivational. It didn't sound like a lecture, which is rather refreshing and effective at the same time.

Türkçe altyazı seçeneğinin olması büyük bir nimet. Dersin içeriği çok dolu ve sıkılmadan, not tutarak dinliyor ve izliyorsunuz. Öğrenme şekileri üzerine yeni bilgiler elde ettim ve yaptığım hataları gördüm. Kesinlikle herkesin alması gereken bir ders olduğunu düşünüyorum.

Really good course to teach us how to learn effectively, especially how to overcome illusion of competence and procrastination, which are help me a lot. Will apply the theory to my daily learning processes. Hopefully I can learn more effectively and happily from now on :)

Great course for those who search for people who want to learn more about how our brains work and what techniques can we use to increase productivity during learning. Enjoyed the course, additional interviews with interesting people is another good thing about the course.

I learned a lot about our brain structure and learning process. And I received specific techniques for effective training, which I will try to use in the future and tell about them to my students.

Many thanks to the teachers of the course, Barbara Oakley, Terry Sejnowski!

This is definitely one of the best online courses I've ever completed. I really loved the way it was taught. The course material was backed with Scientific research papers and a lot of insights about human brain. It was a really great experience learning "How to learn" :)

This a worthwhile course that can be applied by everybody, I'm using it to set me up for further study and feel much more capable of doing so with it. The course structure has a way of getting the information to stick with you as well, which is what it's all about really.

This course may help eliminate the dogmas or wrong belief in your mind about learning, which would help build your confidence again. It also provides very useful tips and techniques to help you learn more easily and better. This is a course that might influence your life.

This is a great course -- short but with well-presented material.

Although I was familiar with most of the mental models and techniques presented, it was extremely useful for me to see which study techniques in particular have been shown to be the most effective.

Thank you!

I found this course very useful, well structured and with plenty of surprising information about how the brain works. I will certainly apply some particularly techniques to better understand, learn and retain new subjects and arguments. Learning is a never ending process.

After this cousre, I was motivated, confident, Plan learning effectively easily, Avoid procastination, Manage work tasks well, Deal with difficult work/subjects with process approach, Speedup learning, Teach my child ways to learn and Understand brain facts. Thank you :-)

I was very pleased to take the courses "learning how to learn", hoping that it will be useful for me the rest of my life to learn to tackle subjects that seemed to me quite complex. I thank Dr. Oklay and all those who contributed To render these courses acceccible to all.

Many thanks for this course. Some ideas was really new to me and I learn a lot. More important, this isn't another "tips and tricks" course, It is the system which smart people can use to improve themselves.

Keep up the good work. It was a pleasure getting to know you.. :)

Excellent course. Completely changed my perspective and approach to learning. The learning materials are very clear and cover topics from learning methods, tackling procrastination and psychological biases that limit your ability to learn new things. 100% would recommend.

It was great to LEARN How To Learn. . .

Though I'm still looking gonna come back frequently to watch all the optional interviews & assignments.

Though it took me about 6 months to complete this, but I had fun & learned a lot.

I'm gonna apply all of this into my daily life.

I really enjoyed the opportunity to better understand how best to learn. Though I've always said that I am a "life-long learner", I don't think I ever fully knew how to be a life-long learner until now.

I'm excited to employ these strategies into my day-to-day experiences.

Absolutely amazing course. I recommend it to every person that finds learning difficult ! Why they didn't teach me that in school ... ? Now I am really learning - first time in my life ( and I'm 29 years old). I love you Barb and Terry for doing it for us and THANK YOU X

This course is a must for anyone regardless of their work disciplines.It has been crafted well to suit audience of all ages.This course help us understand the common pitfalls in the way we try to learn and provides simple and effective guidelines to maximize our learning.

This course helped me to realize some of my bad habits of studying. Even thought I started it very recently, I can already see some improvements in my learning. I recommend it for everyone who is interested in some tips on how to be more effective when studying a subject.

In the beginning, I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this wonderful work. I think this course is one of the best courses I have attended in my life. It helped me a lot in overcoming many problems. Thank you Coursera and thank you, Professor Barbara Oakley.

Truly a great insight into the human brain. I have/will impart the techniques and skills I have learned from this course into future tests, future projects and even everyday life, I cannot thank the proffers enough for making this course available to the masses.

Thank you
