Power Of Distributed Practice
- Distributed practice (spacing study over time) improves long-term retention compared with massed cramming.
- You can apply spacing after intensive workshops by reviewing in short, regular sessions.
Use Self-Testing, Not Rereading
- Self-test by quizzing yourself to see if you truly know material rather than just rereading notes.
- Use flashcards or quiz questions and focus on recalling answers in your own words.
Focus On Weak Spots
- Prioritize study time on items you don't know and reduce review of material you already master.
- Cycle weaker items more frequently and review mastered items infrequently to save time.
