With her online course 'Learning How to Learn' (and companion book 'A Mind for Numbers'), Barbara Oakley, distinguished professor in engineering, reached many of us who - like myself - wanted to improve the way we learn, adopt new technologies or get into complex subject areas. 
Many researchers, PhD students, post-docs teach themselves how to program while trying to get their thesis or work done. But how do you go about it. 

I hope this interview gives some food for thought on how to get better with learning (and teaching).
