¿Estás tomando un curso en línea por primera vez? Como miembro del equipo de enseñanza y
aprendizaje de Coursera, he tenido el privilegio de trabajar con cientos de educadores para llevar sus
cursos a más de 48 millones de personas en todo el mundo. Con base en la investigación y las mejores
prácticas de nuestra comunidad, aquí hay ocho consejos de estudio para aprender en línea.
Pregúntese qué espera lograr en su curso cada día. Establecer una meta clara puede ayudarlo a
mantenerse motivado y vencer la procrastinación. El objetivo debe ser específico y fácil de medir,
como "Veré todos los videos en el Módulo 2 y completaré la primera asignación de programación". ¡Y
no olvides recompensarte cuando avances hacia tu meta!

Es más fácil recordar información si está en el mismo lugar donde la aprendió por primera vez, por lo
que tener un espacio dedicado en casa para tomar cursos en línea puede hacer que su aprendizaje sea
más efectivo. Elimina cualquier distracción del espacio y, si es posible, sepáralo de tu cama o sofá.
Una distinción clara entre dónde estudias y dónde tomas descansos puede ayudarte a concentrarte.
Open your calendar and choose a predictable, reliable time that you can dedicate to watching lectures
and completing assignments. This helps ensure that your courses won’t become the last thing on your
to-do list.
Tip: You can add deadlines for a Coursera course to your Google calendar, Apple calendar, or another
calendar app
Tell your friends about the courses you’re taking, post achievements to your social media accounts, or
blog about your homework assignments. Having a community and support network of friends and
family to cheer you on makes a difference.
Taking notes can promote active thinking, boost comprehension, and extend your attention span. It’s
a good strategy to internalize knowledge whether you’re learning online or in the classroom. So, grab
a notebook or find a digital app that works best for you and start synthesizing key points.
Tip: While watching a lecture on Coursera, you can click the “Save Note” button below the video to save
a screenshot to your course notes and add your own comments.
Course discussion forums are a great place to ask questions about assignments, discuss topics, share
resources, and make friends. Our research shows that learners who participate in the discussion
forums are 37% more likely to complete a course. So make a post today!
Multitasking is less productive than focusing on a single task at a time. Researchers from Stanford
University found that “People who are regularly bombarded with several streams of electronic
information cannot pay attention, recall information, or switch from one job to another as well as

those who complete one task at a time.” Stay focused on one thing at a time. You’ll absorb more
information and complete assignments with greater productivity and ease than if you were trying to
do many things at once.
Resting your brain after learning is critical to high performance. If you find yourself working on a
challenging problem without much progress for an hour, take a break. Walking outside, taking a
shower, or talking with a friend can re-energize you and even give you new ideas on how to tackle that
project.
