Listen "435. USING SPACED REPETITION FOR STUDY SUCCESS"
Episode Synopsis
Conventional wisdom holds that if you don't use it, you lose it, whatever "it" happens to be. But why do we forget information we've learned and how can we better retain it? Amy and Mike invited educational entrepreneur Tyler York to explain how to use spaced repetition for study success. What are five things you will learn in this episode? What is spaced repetition? How does spaced repetition compare to traditional study methods? How does reviewing information you've already learned save time? What are the best use cases for spaced repetition, and what is it not good for? What are the best ways to implement spaced repetition?
