| | + | [[Spaced repetition]] is a "learning technique that involves reviewing material at increasing intervals of time to improve long-term memory. Instead of cramming, you review information right before you're likely to forget it, and each review session strengthens your memory of the material. This method is effective for a wide range of subjects and can be implemented with tools like flashcards and quizzes."<ref>[https://www.google.com/search?q=spaced+repetition&oq=spaced+re&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCggAEAAYsQMYgAQyCggAEAAYsQMYgAQyBggBEEUYOTIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIGCAYQRRg9MgYIBxAuGEDSAQgzNTMzajBqMagCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Spaced repetition]</ref> |
