๐Ÿ“ˆSpaced Skill Compounding

Make It StickAdult Learners ยท Skill Sprint ยท WeeklyMedium

for the lifelong learners who want skills to compound across a week

Goal

Re-touch one target sub-skill on an expanding 1/2/4/7-day cadence so it consolidates by week's end.

Source principle

Spaced repetition: spreading sub-skill practice across the week cements it far better than massed same-day drilling. : from Make It Stick by Brown, Roediger & McDaniel.

The plan

  1. ๐Ÿท๏ธ
    Mon
    First touch on this week's target sub-skill. Tag it + a one-line summary.
  2. ๐Ÿ”„
    Tue
    Quick recall: 5-min drill on the sub-skill. Mark 'easy' / 'fuzzy' / 'blank'.
  3. โฑ๏ธ
    Wed
    5-min queue check. Fire any due drill. Keep it short.
  4. ๐Ÿ”€
    Thu
    Mixed recall: shuffle drills from this week + last week. Random order.
  5. ๐ŸŽฏ
    Fri
    Re-drill ONLY the 'fuzzy' pile. Skip the easy ones today.
  6. ๐ŸŽฒ
    Sat
    Mixed drill across all sub-skills. Performance speed.
  7. ๐ŸŽฌ
    Sun
    Final test: perform the sub-skill cold. Record yourself. Watch back.
  8. ๐Ÿ”
    Sun
    Self-assess: where did it stick? Where is it still fuzzy?
  9. ๐Ÿ“Œ
    Sun
    Pick next week's target sub-skill. Plan the cadence.
