This course reinforced many of the concepts presented in Barb's "Learning how to learn" MOOC and clicked with me on a personal and professional level. This course presented complex topics in a very effective manner and it is definitely time to start working with Direct Instruction across all grade levels and disciplines.

Well organized and takes highly complex material and breaks it down to where the material can be easily applied in a practical manner. I am not a full time early childhood educator but as a pediatric physical therapist, this is directly applicable to the teaching we do with our clients, both children and adults.

I have learned so much from this course. i hope to store my learning in my long-term memory through practice and reflection. And build strong teaching skills to pass on knowledge effectively. Thank you so much to you wonderful lecturers. My grateful thanks for bringing this knowledge to me free of charge.

This is one of my best courses here. I am really fortunate that I had this opportunity to embrace the learning of how learning works and how neuroscience in teaching can help educators have this view and reflection in teaching our learners. I would love to learn more like this courses. Thank you so much.

Learning how to learn. I have never really thought of that before. Now I understand why some people including me has a hard time learning things even though we thought we are really studying hard enough to learn them. Thank you, Coursera for this free course. It was indeed very helful for everyone. ^ ^

Thank you so much Deep Teaching Solutions and specially the outstanding instructors for designing such an important course in such an effective way. The resources shared are of immense importance because these will keep our procedural system active. Highly recommended for all levels of teachers.

This course was fantastic. It has given me some great insight into how our brains work and how kids learn. I am feeling very inspired heading back to school. I had not read the book but during this course I did purchase it as I was so impressed with what I was learning! Thanks everyone!

This course really helped me rethink the structure of my teaching and how to make it work better for all my students. There are some really great ideas and practical tips to get you started too. Highly recommended if you are serious about developing your teaching (and learning) skills!

This course has really broaden my understanding of how students learn and how to accomodate different categories of learners in my class ( both hikers and car racers). It heightened my belef that with constant practice, one can cross hurdles especially in the area of learning.

this course is really helpful for me. it really gave me a lot more insights and strategies how to engage my students in my lessons. i really recommend teachers taking this course even for those seasoned ones already because this will surely refresh your craft as a teacher.

This is a unique class on education, examining not only didactic technique but the biological rationale for understanding varying teaching methods. Moreover, I really enjoyed the instructors, who are quirky and charismatic. It's my favorite education class that I've taken.

Another brilliant inspirational and motivational course by Barbara Oakley and her team aimed especially at educators. If you struggle with students who do not perform well on tests, are unwilling to learn/ study, and tend to cramp for exams with low results, sign up!

This is a wonderful course to teach Teaching and Learning Skills. I suggest that every teacher-trainee, teacher, and student in the world must learn this course. This course provides scientific evidence to enhance our teaching and learning experiences.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Barbara Oakley, Beth Rogowsky & Dr. Terrence Sejnowski, and Coursera for brainstorming during these very informative 3 courses of Specialization 🧶Uncommon Sense Teaching by Deep Teaching Solutions.

This was a great course to supplement the material in the Uncommon Sense Teaching book! I highly recommend doing both! I completed both in preparation for a book study I'm holding for our school district and I'm excited to share the information.

I really enjoyed this course. The information was plain, simple, and insightful. It confirmed of theories I thought I knew and informed me of ones that I did not. I believe I will be a better teacher because of the information I received.

It was such a great course! I enjoyed every second of it. I´m currently teaching public university future elementary school teachers to be and the information given in this course will help me as well as them with their children. Thank you!

Uncommon Sense Teaching is such an amazing and very important course as it established the fact that linking different disciplines such as education and neuroscience will give a positive growth in the lives of students .

It is the best course I have taken on Coursera and many other face-to-face ones. The instructional design is wonderful. They take you by the hand at every step with appropriate techniques and excellent quality content.

Its too good a course

I have been a hard core techie with a love for soft skills training but never found a way to get into it

This course encouraged me for exploring the soft skills domain.

thanks so much for it.

This course changes not only the way I teach but also the way I learn. Using what I've learned from the course, I've managed to get 100% in a final quiz for the first time!

So excited to start the next course!

A very usefull curse, I'm not a teacher, but this curse help me to understand all my student life. Thans important beacuse now I know how to improve my own learning in my work and in my personal life.

Thanks!

I like this course very much, and I love all three professors so much. they are so genuine that they are trying to create a wonderful way for most students to be successful. I just cannot admire them enough.

This course is designed to help teachers under how the brain really learns. This should be a must for all teachers as it is both practical and enlightening to the teaching profession.
