Further Reading
Something something shoulders of giants. Here are the reads that made Spaced Repetition a part of my daily life:
- đŦ Fluent Forever by Gabriel Wyner convinced me to finally (re)start learning French, and adopt a Leitner Box.
- đ¤ Augmenting Long-Term Memory by Michael Nielsen showed me I could use Spaced Repetition to deeply learn almost anything, not just languages.
- đ 20 Rules for Cards by Piotr Wozniak taught me how to squeeze the most out of Spaced Repetition. (Note: the author also invented the algorithm used by Anki!)
- đŠâđ Why Don't Students Like School? by Daniel Willingham proved to me that "mere memorization" is actually necessary for creativity & critical thinking.
- âī¸ What Works, What Doesn't [PDF] by Dunlosky et al summarizes 200+ studies on various learning methods. In sum: common techniques like re-reading & highlighting don't work, less-common techniques like spacing & self-testing do. (Link to original paper)
