boolean responseNo;

response = console.readLine("Do you understand while loops?");
responseNo.equalsIgnoreCase("No");

responseNo.equalsIgnoreCase("No");
What you probably intended to do was to assign the boolean using the result of the comparison:
responseNo = response.equalsIgnoreCase("No");
And then in the "while" you only need the boolean:
while (responseNo);
