Study Skills Worksheet: Spaced Repetition
Study tip (Little and often, gaps growing): Review a topic 1, 3, 7 and 14 days after you learn it: review day = learning day + gap. Doubling gaps work too: 1, then 2, then 4, then 8 days. Forgot part of it at a review? Shorten the gap and review again soon. Spread study over days; avoid one long cram.
