Space revision across several days instead of one long session
Same total hours, remembered for weeks instead of days. Fewer than five independent reports so far, so it is still unverified — try it and file one.
Why it works
Spaced repetition — revisiting material after a gap instead of repeating it immediately — forces the brain to retrieve rather than just re-recognise it, which is what builds durable memory. A single long cram session feels productive but the retrieval practice that makes it stick barely happens.
Did it work for you?
One report per person. This is the only thing that moves the badge — there is no like button.
