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.

With this course I learned the do's and don't of studying. I remembered how I think of myself as a dumb person way back in college when the truth is I just did a lot of wrongdoings in learning.

I now gave great importance to sleep and exercise as part of learning.

Thanks for the LHTL team. :)

it actually confirmed some of my opinion when I was a student. Like I always doing something at night before sleep and find it help after one night sleep, just no theory at that time and I acutally did some "trick" this course teached. It feel really good, my our practice get confirmed here.

The course delivers what the title tells.

Concise, well structured modules with a good mix of science (e.g. how the brain works 101 on memory and learning), learning techniques and tips (e.g. battle procrastination, how to prepare for tests).

Overall an enjoyable experience and worth the time.
