Spacing Effect And Mnemonic Strategies: A Theory-Based Approach To E-Learning
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work briefly reviews pertinent research on learning and memorization. Specifically, it has been demonstrated that spaced repetition and targeted mnemonic strategies greatly facilitate the learning process and foster long-term recall. One possibility to apply these principals is their incorporation into specialized e-learning tools such as MemoryLifter, a free educational software, which is introduced. The software features a timed multimedia learning environment based on the Leitner algorithm and incorporates mnemonic elements to enhance the learning experience.

متن کاملEncoding strategy changes and spacing effects in the free recall of unmixed lists
Memory for repeated items often improves when repetitions are separated by other items—a phenomenon called the spacing effect. In two experiments, we explored the complex interaction between study strategies, serial position, and spacing effects. When people studied several unmixed lists, they initially used mainly rote rehearsal, but some people eventually adopted relational encoding strategie...
متن کاملe-Learning Theories with Emphasis on Independence Theory
Introduction: The basis of distance learning rests on the independence of the learner. The independent learning-teaching process is an educational system in which each learner is independent and separated from their teacher by time and place. Hence the present study seeks to examine E-learning Theories in general, but focuses on Independence Theory. Methods: The present study was conducte...
