- Interleaving
Mixing different topics or problem types within a study session — feels harder but produces better long-term learning than blocked practice.
- Study Methods
A map of evidence-based study techniques — ranked roughly by research support and practical ROI.
- Active Recall
Testing yourself on material — rather than re-reading it — is one of the most powerful learning strategies known to cognitive science.
- Spaced Repetition
The most evidence-backed study technique — reviewing material at increasing intervals to exploit the spacing effect and beat the forgetting curve.
- Make It Stick — Brown, Roediger, McDaniel
Notes from the best popular book on learning science — summarises decades of cognitive psychology research on what actually works.
