This week’s study

Spaced repetition, Daily queue, 1885

Thursday evening: at the desk, write only 1885 and 96 for Spaced repetition on the card. Put “Daily queue” under Spaced repetition. At the timer, count 96 once. Do not write a diagnosis beside Spaced repetition. Leave 1885 and Daily queue at the desk.

Spaced repetition is “Daily queue” in 1885, and the figure kept beside it is 96. This week, use one method only, and do not blur the time by mixing another method. Do not read a count of misses as a person’s ability. Keep only the figure on the card. Dunlosky's reviews rank practice testing and distributed practice as high-utility techniques — SRS operationalises both. At the desk, open Spaced repetition so the card shows 1885 first, 96 next, and “Daily queue” beside them.

This week, before you start the timer, write the method’s name, the year, and the figure on the desk card, and study once only for that many minutes. When the timer rings, close the card and do not run a second round the same day. The order is Spaced repetition, 1885, 96, then “Daily queue”. When the timer is done, look again only at 1885 for Spaced repetition and leave 96 on the card.

Do not judge the method by a rank of scores, and do not write a diagnosis on the card. Check that the method on the card and the timer you started today are the same study, and if not, turn the timer off and only read the card. Do not read a count of misses as a person’s ability. Keep only the figure on the card. Match Daily queue with 96 at the desk before you close 1885 for Spaced repetition. Spaced repetition is “Daily queue” in 1885, and the figure kept beside it is 96.

This week, before you start the timer, write the method’s name, the year, and the figure on the desk card, and study once only for that many minutes. Spaced repetition is “Daily queue” in 1885, and the figure kept beside it is 96.1885
