  • Interleaving: Interleaving is the practice of mixing different but related topics or problem types within a single study session, instead of blocking practice on one type at a time.
  • Massed Practice: Massed practice is single-minded, rapid-fire repetition of something in a single session: the classic 'practice-practice-practice' approach.
  • Spaced Repetition: Spaced repetition is the practice of reviewing material at increasing intervals so that each review happens just as the memory is about to fade.
  • Varied Practice: Varied practice means practising the same underlying skill across a range of contexts and conditions, so the skill transfers beyond the examples used during study.
