I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

Curso incrível! Gostei demais das explicações sobre como funciona o mecanismo de recompensa do cérebro, e como usar técnicas de concentração em um espaço curto de tempo. Sem dúvidas, foi muito legal ter participado deste curso.

This is the best course ever. Not only has it helped me improve my learning, but my students. I have three undergrads and since I began teaching them the methods shown in this course their performance has improved dramatically.

I thought I know everything, until I learn from this course. I am grateful to Barb and Terry for this amazing course, I really did learn something even though I am already at this age where I think learning new things is hard.

The course is very informative. It has given me many new ideas on how to aproach my students, how to teach and then learn and how to improve my teaching. It has also shown me how to help my own children be successful learners.

I originally took this course in preparation for my kids having a year of guided independent study (thanks, covid). There are tidbits I will definitely use for myself. I especially appreciated the citations to neural science.

Never knew that I needed a course about learning. Prof. Barabara Okley explained each concept really well using various teaching methods such as chunking, using metaphors, etc. I am now a definitely a better version of myself.

This course should be thought in k9-12 . I just can’t believe that this powerful technique of learning how to learn is not available for kids in high school,.. I wish I had access to this type of material earlier in my life.
