Coursera : Q&A with Dr. Barbara Oakley on teaching and learning tips

In increasingly diverse and often online learning environments, teachers are grappling with how to bring out the best in all their students, channel their abilities, and keep students engaged. I truly believe that teaching online can help match the outcomes possible in a traditional classroom, and indeed, even surpass it! Way back in 2014, I started creating online courses about learning because of my own experience. I wasn't a natural at math or science, so I had to rewire my own brain as an adult to learn them!At that time, I remember wondering why had no one written a book or taught a course about learning effectively based on what we know from science on how the brain learns. Once I saw how many learners' online courses could reach - over 3.8 million people have taken my course Learning How to Learn - I knew I needed to share similar tips on how teachers could instill these lessons in their students around the world.
