About the Course

This course gives you easy access to the invaluable learning techniques used by experts in art, music, literature, math, science, sports, and many other disciplines. We’ll learn about how the brain uses two very different learning modes and how it encapsulates (“chunks”) information. We’ll also cover illusions of learning, memory techniques, dealing with procrastination, and best practices shown by research to be most effective in helping you master tough subjects. Using these approaches, no matter what your skill levels in topics you would like to master, you can change your thinking and change your life. If you’re already an expert, this peep under the mental hood will give you ideas for turbocharging successful learning, including counter-intuitive test-taking tips and insights that will help you make the best use of your time on homework and problem sets. If you’re struggling, you’ll see a structured treasure trove of practical techniques that walk you through what you need to do to get on track. If you’ve ever wanted to become better at anything, this course will help serve as your guide. This course can be taken independent of, concurrent with, or prior to, its companion course, Mindshift. (Learning How to Learn is more learning-focused, and Mindshift is more career-focused.) A related course by the same instructors is Uncommon Sense Teaching.

I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

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!

Everyone should first study this course then something else because this course guides you on how to learn things and the instructors have explained most of the principles of the learning process.

Очень качественный и увлекательный курс. Каждое короткое видео составлено так, чтобы слушатель вынес максимум информации. Авторы стараются увлечь слушателя и заинтересовать его в получении знаний.

I have found learning how to learn a very interesting course. I've learned in this course about topics that I've never heard before and I found them very useful while applying them to this course.

If you want to learn more efficiently (and thereby making it more fun imo) this course is for you. For me spaced learning, the pomodoro technique, recalling and interleaving were real eye openers.

A well-designed, well-delivered course. I strongly recommend it to any student who wants to improve their study skills and/or any faculty member interested in learning how to help their students.

Both instructors gave a unique perspective on learning process. So far i focused on outcome of learning not as much about the process. First time i feel that i have many tools to learn new things.

Well done, straight to the point, I couldn't imagine better course on the subject. I actually read a lot about this subject in different books, this is by far the best and more concise one. Cheers

I have always struggled with procrastinating MOOCs, and finally, I may say that Learning How to Learn was the cure.

This is the first MOOC that I have completed, looking forward to finish others.

Absolutely loved this course with a very engaging presenter. I wish I had learned these techniques years ago as I am sure I would have taken a lot more in my memory and done better with my degree.

Its amazing how some otherwise simple techniques can improve your learning experience. I learnt new techniques on how to learn. I also appreciated the techniques I have been using sub consciously.

This course clears all my mental blocks regarding the process of learning. If you think that this is not a professional level course I would say this course will make learning as your profession.
