This course accumulates a clear and valuable set of thoughts that structure knowledge about learning principles and tactics. Also, it was interesting to know some new things about how the brain works.

Easy to understand and well formulated content as well as interesting.
Keeps me curious and holds my attention.
Especially like that every video is short, so there is time to ponder and contemplate after each session.

Excelente! .. aunque tengo limitaciones por no dominar el inglés, me resultaba más practico apagar el audio y leer el subtítulo.
Muchas gracias a Coursera y a la Universidad de California, en especial a Barb y al Dr.

I really liked this course, it was fast and easy to do in a good way. It helped me to understand many things about learning in a really efficient way; i would have preferred a more deep explanation on mnemotechnics.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. I think this should be a general course taught to all that are interested in maximising and optimising their learning abilities. Applies especially to students and those learning new material.

Simplesmente excepcional. Não apenas pelo que você aprende a fazer, mas também pelo que você aprende a interromper ou deixar de fazer. Além disso, a didática é excelente e os exemplos são muito práticos e atrativos.

This course was a lot of fun, very interesting to me as a teacher, because I'm always trying to get my students to understand concepts, and this helps me to help them learn how to build concepts in their own minds!

This has actually helped put me more at ease with my stress of having issues learning at my elder age. It has shown me how to control my learning stress and again properly function as a 'student' to my environment.
