Didactique efficace et agréable.
Permet de savoir pourquoi certaines méthodes empiriques fonctionnent et pourquoi certaines méthodes d'apprentissage ou de motivation sont inefficaces.

Helps a lot with remembering things, especially so after damage to the brain and memories took away some of those naturally used methods making learning almost completely uneffective

It's an excellent course with great student material (videos, lectures). Also, both teachers have great expertise in the subject that they share with all the students in an easy way.
