Very useful. Explained how the brain - mind and memory - works, and showed techniques for learning more effectively. Wish I'd known about this stuff while I actually went to high-school and college!

Great, thank you for this awsome MOOC with lots of useful tips! I recall that after a good night's sleep I'd better focus soon and start deliberately practicing or the metabolic vampires will come out. And repeat - fear the vampires.

This should be a mandatory course for first-year high school students and then a refresher in college or university. I believe it would have made a major difference in my education, career, and life if I had this course 30 years ago.
