Science says…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Science has affirmed that after we learn something, we forget it over time if there is no attempt to retain it. The <\/span>forgetting curve<\/a><\/strong> represents that we tend to halve our memory of newly learned information in a matter of days unless we consciously review the learned material again.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typical Forgetting Curve for Newly Learned Information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spaced repetition<\/b><\/a> is a learning technique that incorporates increasing intervals of time between subsequent reviews of previously learned material to exploit the psychological spacing effect.<\/span> The <\/span>spacing effect<\/b><\/a> is the phenomenon whereby learning is greater when studying is spread out over time, as opposed to studying the same amount of time in a single session.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your voice\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
