Uncommon Sense Teaching Part 2 is a very informative course. Thorough study of the course will give you a more understanding at what is really going on in the brain while we learn. Supported by scientific research, which is also included in the course and also in depth books, scientific articles and a lot of supporting material for a deeper understanding of the subject is available. Excellent learning experience for all diversity of students.

Such valuable scientific researched information presented in methods that will become part of my procedural thinking. Aplications to everyday teaching provided continuously. Popular teaching methods debunked and successful additions introduced with rationale. So much to think about and immediately apply.

Like part I of the Uncommon Sense Teaching, the contents are enlightening but not overwhelming. Beth, Barb, and Terry's teaching styles are lively. Terry has made complex concepts in neurology simple enough to understand and to be applied in our uncommon sense teaching practices.

I believe this course is a must attend for inspiring educators to gain fruitful insights on making their lessons more engaging for their students; coupled with the essential skills taught that help diverse learning styles of students learn more effectively.

Kudos to Profs Barb, Beth, and Terry for making this training insightful and informative for learners worldwide who are able to access the training. I am intrigued by the scientific studies and outcomes made available as part of the resources that reinforced why Uncommon Sense Teaching is relevant and credible for learning and implementation.

Not forgetting to give credits to Coursera for making this training make available for all who inspired to be a life-long learners in their personal and professional life.

El contenido del curso es trasmitido de una forma clara, las referencias y las citas de libros son de serias y valiosas.

No es facil decir qué nos trasmitió el curso porque, como todo conocimiento, debe sufrir un proceso de decantamiento, de "digestión", de procesamiento ,cunado se aplica en los diversos campos profesionales en lo cuales se puede aplicar.

Y lo aprendido en este curso es dable de aplicar en el ambito de varias profesiones en las cuales tengamos que interactuar con el "otro" como sujeto de cambio.

This second part is as interesting and motivating to keep on learning as the firt part of the course. Cannot wait to have the next part available. Congratulations for this excellent and illustrating course and thank you very much to all that made possible for us to have access to this very important and practical information in such a entertaining way, particularly to Barb, Beth and Terry.

Thank you, Barb, Tery and Beth. You taught me how to teach, and helped me to love my profession even more. My mum, who also was a teacher, once told me; a teacher who thinks they have nothing to improve because they already know everything, should leave the teaching profession. I am willing to learn - for the sake of my students, who I am obliged to guide so that they reach their best.

This course is exceptional! I've learn many new fresh techniques and reflections to improve my teaching practice- plus the videos are visually pleasant and the speakers are funny yet authoritative. A real must for teachers looking for a way to upgrade their game.
