Memory Techniques Worksheet: Spaced Repetition Schedule
Memory tip (Little and often, then less often): Spaced practice: 15 minutes on 4 days, a little every day, old topics each Sunday, gaps that grow longer. Cramming: 4 hours the night before, all reviews on one day, no review until the test. Growing gaps: learn on day 5, review on days 7, 12, 18 → gaps 2 → 5 → 6. Forgot an item? Review it sooner.
