Excellent course. The analogies used motivates one to build upon them and get creative in linking what we already know with what we are learning. I wish that I would have stumbled over this course a long time ago.

An excellent course on learning how to learn. Effective for all groups of people who fail to repeat or recall things despite putting a lot of hard work. Get to know the science how the neurons in the brains work!

A valuable short course that can teach you different ways to approach learning. Teaches you new ways to think about your own learning and explains how to form strong long term memories and the best ways to do it.

Lot's of good material and learned some good ways to learn better. Recall, testing earlier and more often, and tackling hard problems first then switching to easy when stuck are just a few good methods discussed.

All the information that you gain in this course is something I would describe as "Clean" and neatly presented to Us as Students in each video and lecture. Notes and you're understanding is all that is necessary.

Really enjoyed the useful, relevant and well presented material. Barb is true to her values and I particularly respected her one interview where she defended her "Start hard - jump easy" approach.

Great information for those who do not know how to actually study and how things really work in the brain. I give my students the tip of not studying more than 30 to 40 minutes at a time and it really helps them.
