This is my first course at coursera platform and I enjoyed it. I've had the best experience of moocs learning and I loved the recall testing strategy which I found most helpful throughout the course.

It was a wonderful journey of learning how to learn. Simple and effective. Wish i had come across something like this a little early in life. But better late than never. Keep up the good work. Thanks.

It is easy and interesting course about tools that can help us to learn more effective. I found a few new ideas. Learning is more sophisticated thing than I thought before. The knowledge how our brain works defiantly will help me learn better. Thanks!

This course is very helpful, I love turning this on in the morning - as a form of podcast. Little changes they suggest, if implemented, have a profound impact on line. Also, try yoga and meditation - great augmentations to improve cognitive abilities.

Easy to understand, beneficial and practical tips for "learning how to learn."
I will try to use some of these techniques- I am halfway through this course- and I will come back and add more to my review after I have completed this course.
So far, good!

This course is absolutely fantastic. As a 30 year old with a full time time job, this course has changed my approach towards learning and has given me the courage to learn and start new things, even at this age. Thank you Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski!

A class that I think should be a requisite at schools. I had discovered some of this techniques on my own the hard way, after completing a bachelor's degree.Wish I had taken this class before. Although, the tips will still help me through grad school.

Definitely something I will recommend to anyone that even mentions learning. I now suffer from less stress when I get stuck, and don't panic if something doesn't go as I planned. Made my learning and life in general far easier to handle and thrive at.

This is a magnificent course that should be a prerequisite before taking any other course. It helps you understand learning itself and put you in a better position to learn faster and better thus making learning more enjoyable rather than be a burden.

This course should be taught as a requirement at all universities. To all language learners... please learn how to learn, do not waist your time on silly strategies! This is the way I should have been taught all along. Thank you for this opportunity

I wish I had had access to this course years ago. It not only improves the way you learn so you learn more deeply but it reduces the amount of time you would spend studying without necessarily improving your understanding or retention of the material.

This course has definitely helped me and I highly recommend it. You’ll get science-based insights on how your brain works and it debunks familiar fallacies. You’ll get very useful concrete steps you can take to succeed on tests, in class and in life.

I'm constantly recommending this course (and the book "A Mind for Numbers," to new college students, adult learners, really everyone I know. I never learned how to study and it wasn't intuitive for me - none of my previous attempts was successful.

It's a course that has definitely refined the way I learn. I had better understood why some techniques work and some don't. I am excited to try different learning techniques that I picked up in this course and apply them to my learning in the future.

The course was easy to take and provided an overview of the learning process. What I like about the course is it remained committed to focusing more in the process and not in the product. Thank you to the wonderful professors that creates this video!

The information provided in this course is invaluable. The instructors were welcoming, down-to-earth, and jovial. What I'm taking away from this course will be a force multiplier for my continued education and any new endeavor I tackle in the future.

I love this class, helped me a lot. It can tell that professor did devote themselves a lot . cause the final test has 27 items. I learned several online classes from Coursera,this one is the only one to integrate all "key points together. Well done.
