This is an amazing course. I would recommend that you take this course before doing any others in Coursera, it will give you a great foundation to take into any other subjects that you want to learn.

Awesome course. Learning how to learn should be part of middle and high school required curricula. I will have my boys take advantage of Dr Oakley and Dr Sejnowski expertise and have them take this course. Thank you.

I learned a lot about why sometimes we don´t succeed at school and what you can do to understand, learn, and remember the subjects you want to learn. I recommend this course. Also class is easy to understand and fun.

This course has really helped me think about learning and find better ways to learn. The one big take away for me from this course is the Pomodoro which I am using everyday. It's helping me actually get through work.

It was extremely awesome. I actually used these techniques in my daily life before taking this course, but never knew if it was right. This source gave me that I am right and am eager to teach these to whoever I see.

that is really a fantastic and an eye opener course for me. If you really feel difficult to work or learn but you still have urge to learn and then if things seem impossible to you! then this the best course for you.

I have learned excellent tools that I have already begun to implement like the Pomodoro. I have also learned more about the brain, and what good habits to practice in order to make the most of my learning experience.

Some new study techniques and explanations on how your brain and memory work. Great explanations on things you already knew- like WHY procrastination is bad, why we tend to do it, and good tips for stopping it., etc.

An excellent course for learning how to learn. What I particularly liked was the interviews which opened up a pool of inspiration for me. Moreover it gave me other teachers and perspectives for improving my learning.

The course introduced me to various ways and on how approach and not to approach problems. I believe I will be able to apply almost everything that I have learned in this course in my college career and through life.

It helped me to get some mental tools and master my focusing problems with studying. I also learned many new things which as a psychologist major I didn't know until now. Thanks for teaching me learning how to learn!

Невероятно полезный курс, содержащий в себе информацию о полезных вещах -- таких, как прокрастинация, мнемонические приемы и техники и др. И все это очень хорошо структурировано и приятно в изучении. Рекомендую всем.
