I found this course to be incredibly helpful. I am 33 and wish that I would have been taught a more efficient way of learning many years ago. There are definitely some great takeaways from this class.

This class feels basic, but it hold deep truths about how to be a better learner and it provides great research you can go deeper into on your own. Excellent instruction, you get out what you put in.

非常好的课程,让我用新的眼光重新审视了我自己的学习方法,也学到了新技能。
这门课介绍了一些基础的大脑科学,在这样的基础上,对学习方法的理解也更加深刻。
课程的课时安排很合理,视频都分割的比较短小,保证了注意力的集中,老师讲的也很好,很多比喻都生动形象,加上合适的retrieval practice让知识停留的更加深刻了。

Excellent course well thought. Especially useful to High School and College Studies but also useful to adults like myself since learning is a lifetime process.

Really useful introduction to memory techniques and how to use them
Would like to see a 'part 2' with a bit more practical exercises and more on brain functions

As often mentioned, the academic system doesn't teach you how to learn.
This course does, in a brilliant way, focusing on the process rather than the product.

Exceptionally well-crafted and a must-do course for everyone at all ages and in all disciplines. Learning is so intrinsic to us that we need it all the times.
