Pilot Lecture: Myths of Learning and Memory
Remember when they said doing brain puzzles would help you fight off Alzheimer's? Neither do we, because it turns out it wasn't true. See what science says DOES help.

Cool pilot!
Interesting pilot to understand how memory works! I do like the structure of the lecture, it is engaging and interesting as a pilot. Thanks for this and hope to see more from this professor soon.

Myths of Learning and Memory
Great topic and a good review of current science that addresses this subject.
I also am hoping that future episodes will be available soon that expand upon this topic and offers even more developed techniques.

Excellent concept of class
I would love to have more information on this with learning strategies and memory techniques. The pilot was exceptionally interesting, and I would love to know more.

Great Pilot - Where is the rest of the series??
I really enjoyed watching this pilot. The lecturer was very engaging and had a very pleasant style. He makes multiple references to the "other lectures of this series". I am disappointed that I do not see the rest of the series, even though the pilot was from 2019. I would really love for The Great Courses / Wondrium to complete the series on this topic with this lecturer.

Where's the rest... or at least an update?
Seems quite annoying for Wondrium to produce this FIRST lecture and then never release the rest... and some of these reviews are 2 years old...! Please allow the fans of this pilot (and perhaps other pilots) to view some type of update on if and when the full course will be released... or else we are forced to go to other sources for the promised content.
I personally found this professor to be very likeable, believable, and professional, if slightly nervous (I'd be a WRECK, so I think he did GREAT)... I am VERY interested in seeing the rest of HIS course. Would appreciate an update. Thanks and happy learning!
