Learner Reviews & Feedback for Mindware: Critical Thinking for the Information Age by University of Michigan

Crisp and fun

very useful! THX!!!

Well structured course and very helpful. It presents the matter of critical thinking in a pretty abstract away allowing to cover a lot of subjects while also presenting the most important aspects. I observed changes in my way of analyzing information in every day life. The course does not provide in depth mathematical / logical concepts but it teaches you when to observe the need to use such a concept and how to search for it which is more valuable in my opinion.

Excellent collection of mistakes we make during decision making and logical reasoning. A valuable companion for the rest of your life.

This is one of the best courses for everyone. It describes very common life situations and give you the right answer on them. The course is built very interesting. First you should answer the questions or make exersices and afterward the professor explain to you your mistakes (if you made them) and describes the logic of conclusions in a very clear way. I definitely recommend this course to all. Thank you!

Hi and thanks for this course.

It inspires me to study deeper statistics, logic and other topics included in the course.

The only issue that I faced with is how should I use that in a real world? Lot of (or even all) information given in this course was new to as an academic subject. And I feel lack of understanding how can I use it in practice. So, my feedback is add some practical assignments (with no review, of course) or give some hint about how start using that. It'll be very handy.

Anyway, thank you for that. That was really great.

P.S. I would be very appreciate if you can give some ideas about my issue. You can text me on sergejshishkin@gmail.com

But of course, it's only by your grace. I've no reasons to expect and insist on it.

Great course. liked the content as it will help in making decision and understand, analyze situations problem in much better light.

I had great time and learned to see in new point of view and think in many ways as it requires.

I really love the course, and I have recommended it to all my friends. The course helped me to think more clearly and avoid cognitive biases.

Really Good Course

Excelente

excellent course!

Great course!

very useful. Critical Thinking.

The course was very informative and paced just right. It was a light introduction to a lot of concepts that all tied together

A very Practical and Real life skiIls course. I found this course very well structured in terms of organising the way to use the thinking tools that I discovered in the course This is a must course for everyday thinking. Also Professor Nisbett brings a very warm and engaging way to his lectures that makes you come back for more.

Terrific! I strongly reccomend for everybody who is eager to think accurately.

Superb. Being able to (begin to) see cognitive biases and errors daily--and realizing that everyone makes many--is enlightening and humbling.

Excellent course, the explanations by Dr. Nisbett were very clear and engaging. Highly recommended!

Excellent! a must-do and mind-blowing course, suggested to anyone!

Great course,! Great instructor! This course is very helpful for everyone all across the board.

Thanks for the course, very illuminating. Our society needs to educate his Mindware to be better, especially now with the environmental crisis in we are.

Hace tiempo que venía buscando un curso sobre pensamiento crítico. Este curso es muy bueno, no sólo porque provee de herramientas para razonar, sino también por las explicaciones y los ejemplos que se dan.

Amazing course, going to purchase audio version of your book to listen while I commute! Thank you.
