Optimizing Brain Fitness course. With over 500 trillion synaptic connections, your brain is easily the most powerful machine in the world. These connections are what create your thoughts, guide your emotions, and control your behaviors. Even more incredible: this amazing machine is constantly changing through a process called the brain… Comments from some users:

“This course was rough in my opinion. The first half of the course is a good introduction to how the brain works. It is not overly technical, although it does deal with important neurological concepts. Unfortunately, some of the lectures in the second half of the course are basically a collage of memory hall tricks. To be fair, what I call “parlor tricks” are presented by Dr. Rostak as exercises to “optimize” the brain (hence the course title). How can I memorize a long list of numbers or words? That’s why I bought this course? Although Dr. Rostak had collected important concepts in a neat manner (especially in the first half of the course), these concepts are somewhat undermined by Dr. Rostak’s weak and almost monotonous presentation style. The course guide is below average by TGC standards. It is written in narrative format (as opposed to bullet or outline format). There was only one useful graphic in the course guide, a top-level map of the brain. There were about four pages for each speech, which is a bit low level. There is a bibliography, but most references only list the reference and do not explain what value the reference provides. There is no glossary, which is surprising given the highly technical nature of the subject. I used the video version of the course. While there were useful visual graphics, they weren’t necessary. It was possible to listen to the course in audio-only mode. This course was published in 2011.

“The professor and the material were interesting, but I couldn’t bear to hear the animal studies over and over again. Call me a snowflake, but I find the use of animals in laboratories abhorrent. I know it happens, I just don’t want to hear about it. And yes, I am vegan.”

“One of the best courses I’ve ever taken. I just think that our brain improves itself by moving and learning and practicing it. As long as we follow it and practice it, it actually grows. he does! And it changes with training, as I read and follow the exercises, I feel the change in myself, memory, etc. I’m so glad I bought it.”

“I really enjoyed this course. Well put together is organized. A lot of simple brain exercises, several explanations and informational points that I found very interesting. wonderful course”

“I enjoy this course and recommend it to anyone interested in learning the ‘brain basics’. The material is well organized and supported by numerous photographs and useful examples from brain research. Professor Rostak provides clear and interesting instructions that are well suited to an academic topic. Other reviews suggest that she is boring, but I didn’t find that to be true. I found the course interesting, educational and well presented. And if you do the exercises, it’s fun!”
