This class is amazing, simply put. If you're looking to tackle subjects you find difficult, I recommend jumping right in. Not only is it packed with useful tips and practical how-to's, Dr. Oakley is encouraging, even when the going gets tough.

Excellent class. Well planned and executed. I wish material like this had been available when I was in high school decades ago. However, I still plan on learning new stuff before I die, so the skills learned in this class will definitely help.

presented really well. great insight into learning and jam packed with ideas to tackle procrastination. enjoyed learning about the importance of exercise to learning. barbara does a great job as well as sejnowski. take this course. enjoy!

Learning how to learn is a really great and fun course that gives you and insight on how your brain works and how you could use several aspects on your favor whenever you are learning new things or taking tests on a sport, on your carrer, etc.

This MOOC is the most useful one I've taken. These learning skills are so valuable for anything I will be doing. This course, combined with the Mindshift MOOC I just completed should be incorporated into the earliest level of higher education.

Excellent, it provides awesome tools and strong foundations in order to get the most when learning, and indeed it's funny to experience how some of the concepts are included in this course and content is so well 'sticked' in the brain. A must!

IF you want to LEARN 'How To Learn'. I highly recommend this course as it is very useful for every individual. Do not try to memorise the information they provide, instead try to learn it with spaced repetition and test yourself. Good luck :)

I was surprised by how much value I got from this course! This stuff should be taught to all undergraduates - and anyone who wants to learn or study anything.

It's all well backed by research, and summarised in a memorable way by Prof Oakley.

Thanks so much for all your presentation. I am so excitted that i can experience such an interesting course by entirely different from my past learning method. I can't wait to introduce this course to my students and friends. Thank you again.

I learnt a lot learning techniques from this course, and improved my English skills(cause I'm not a native speaker). I thought it's too late for me to start learning French, but now I can see it's never too late. Thank this course. Au revoir!

Refreshing insights into learning techniques, such as a good night sleep and start on hard questions before the easy ones on test tips, most interesting and will adopt is the interleaving technique. Thank you very much for this great course.

Barbara Oakley, Terry Sejnowski, and the Learning How to Learn Team.......

Thank you for a wonderful course, that helped me learn about the working of the fascinating "brain"! I hope to apply some of these techniques to learn difficult things.

The skill of being able to effectively learning is maybe the most valuable skill for a majority, if not all, of people. This course is the best way to learn that skill that I have ever seen which makes me strongly recommengint it to everyone.

Very useful, practical and easy to apply methods of effective learning, especially, for the more challenging subjects like math, science, engineering etc....It helps make learning fun again! I wish if I had taken such a course before college.

This course is a blessing. I really express my gratitude to Dr. Barbabra Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski and all the others for cumulating all the resources , designing it to perfection and coming up with this course. Thank you, once again.

This course was a breath of fresh air. It made me realize that I was not being very efficient in the way I was learning new subjects. It taught me techniques and how to apply them to become a better learner. Would totally recommend to anyone

Amazing course. It has really helped me understand what it is to actually learn. The concept about 'illusion of competence' really shook me and made me think about what I actually know and how do I go from here to become better. Thanks a lot!

Huge thanks to Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski!

All of the material was extremely helpful not only from the theoretical but from the practical point of view.

Learned a long and really enjoyed the process of learning about learning

Excellent Course for really Learning how to Learn. A course like this should be included in the curriculam of every education system. Thanks Coursera for putting forth this module with such brilliant concepts explained in a simplified manner.

This course was really great and taught me a lot of things how to think to solve problems. I loved every technique of you guys, I'm really excited to try these techniques on my daily routine, already started tho and I can tell the difference.

A very interesting look at the common problems you face when you start learning something new.

It's quite easy to grasp the concepts, and also I found it awesome how well they explain the common pitfalls we find when we are studying something.

Quick Mooc. Interesting concept to learn. Quizz adapted to the lesson and in accordance to what the mooc explain about learning. Lots of ressource links. I recommand to read in parallel "A mind for numbers", which will make you learn better !

The title of the course is self-explanatory. The techniques involved are simple and easy to adopt. I would highly recommend that everybody take this course, whether you're an academic or just somebody who is interested in learning new things.

It is an excellent course that really teaches learning in a very holistic manner. It is beyond effective in its dedications to constantly engage, drill and deliver learnings to the learners. Overall, a brilliant course that I am grateful for!

Un curso imprescindible para todo estudiantes, lector o amante del arte de aprender. Los profesores/instructores del curso son unos excelentes profesionales que destacan por la claridad y sencillez con las que explican el contenido del curso.
