Spaced Repetition: The most powerful study technique

preview_player
Показать описание
The basis of spaced repetition using forgetting curves. (studying how to study part 01). When you study the chapter for the first time, you develop a strong memory. Let’s call this the primary memory. But with time, memory strength fades rapidly. This is the normal forgetting curve.

The key to a strong primary memory is understanding the concepts rather than cramming.
Flow charts are one way to achieve this. There are other techniques like creating tables, mind maps, mnemonics and picmonics. But my favorite technique is creating my own theories.

The second secret to a prolonged memory is spaced repetition

When you review the same chapter on the second day the gradient of the forgetting curve flattens a bit.
When you review it again on the seventh day the slope flattens even further.
This pattern of spaced revision is called spaced repetition. It helps to retain facts in memory for longer time periods.

You can do this manually by reviewing the notes in a planned time table. For an example you can review the notes on the 2nd day, on the 7th day, 14th day, 28th day and then once every 3 months.

Or you can use apps developed specifically for this task. Anki is one such popular app used for spaced repetition.

Thanks For Watching !. :)

Such a pity we focus so much on gaining new knowledge and forget how important it is to revise be recalling.
Thanks for this video!

This is the first and last video of your "studying how to study" series.
That's really sad :( I would have loved more of your content on that topic.
Maybe pick it up again? :)

This is not good enough. Even with Anki, I still had to re-learn different topics like 3-4 times over the last 10 years. On my 5th time now for a certain topic. Anki is not enough.

My all time question is how do you find time to even type a question on anki? 🥺🥺 I can't even finish reading my bulk atleast a one round.

Does this work with online video learning? I am dyslexic so I struggle with books, I learn through video by watching someone demonstrate what I need to know.

The only thing I have to ask is what if I get the topic/study material one week before the test? How would I know the material if I don’t have as much time? I hope this made sense

By any chance did that detailed Anki video ever come out?
Came across this spaced repetition concept today while trying to really master some challenges with work. Kinda looking for every edge I can get.

What are the appropriate intervals for spaced repetition. I cannot use anki Or any other apps. I have to revise my own notes. Say I have an exam in February next year and this is October then what are the appropriate intervals for revision

Genuine question. What's the difference between rote learning and spaced repetition. I know the latter is the best way to study while the former is inefficient. But looking at both of them, I can't seem to pinpoint the difference.
