This class really focused on the process of learning. It taught me so much. I even shared ideas with my college and high school student. They were surprised as some concepts were helpful to them also.

Great course, applicable to more things than just 'studying'. Took me 4 days to complete and I have already implemented several things from the course in daily life.

Very good crisp course material with more dramatic presentation of the content; most of the test questions are trivial but still those help to recapture the content.

Wonderful course. We are told some methods about meta-learning at our school days. This course is a collection of all the tips with scientific backing. Worth taking.

Great course, not only for students but for mature professionals. Barbara walks the talk making her short videos quite intertaining and full of visual mind catchers.

I've gained insight into what I should be doing (and obviously what I shouldn't be doing) when I'm learning new information. This course is nothing short of amazing.

It's great to learn how our brain works when it comes to acquiring new knowledge or even when trying to remember the grocery list. It's been a very pleasant journey.
