Taking the Learning How to Learn class was one of the best decisions Ive made in the past ten years regarding maintaining my skills current and relevant to my professional life in high tech. I used to fall prey to a sense of being perennially behind regarding the amount of technical knowledge I need to master for my work. Since my University days, my modus operandi used to be: repetition and brute force, i.e., more or less, cramming.After this class, I now have a set of tools I can actually relate to. I can use them proficiently to learn smarter, retain information better, and foremost, understand what my particular cues are if procrastination gets in my way again. I cannot thank Drs Oakley and Sejnowski enough for the deliberate pace of this course: they carefully pared down its content, with luminously clear explanations often delivered with a down-to-earth approach sprinkled with humor.I sincerely hope that this small message of gratitude will encourage whomever is on the fence to register for the course. By the way, by requesting a Certificate of Completion, I felt that I hadskin in the game,I had a deadline to honor. Whether tired, or pressed for time, knowing that I had paid the modest sum for my Certificate encouraged me to make time for myself to go through each lesson carefully and learn the special vocabulary associated with these new tools.Very best wishes to all, you will be so happy you took the time to go through the class!Sincerely,Catherine von DennefeldNapa, CA
