Learning acquisition is only effective when it is combined with comprehension. However, retaining new information becomes difficult if it is not consolidated. Therefore, spaced repetition is an important method that increases retention and ensures learning fidelity. Neuroplasticity helps our brain assimilate new information, but to delineate the natural tendency of forgetting, intermittent repetition is needed. Through gradual incremental learning, we can decipher information more deeply and it becomes subliminally embedded.
By using an effective mnemonic technique, the pace of learning can be expedited and it helps in brain proliferation. Therefore, by using spaced repetition, information does not become ephemeral and disappear, but rather gets reinforcement, which strengthens our knowledge in the long term.
