Switch between different modes to practice various questions and skills


Switch between different modes to practice various questions and skills
Discuss in your team
What are the different types of skills to be practiced?
How do you currently present them to learners?
How could you have learner practice these skills in an interleaved fashion?
How would you structure learning through blocking versus interleaving?
Principle Definition
Mix different topics or skills during practice, instead of focusing on a single topic. Interleaving will balance the speed (reduced time cost of practice) advantage of recency with the long-term learning advantage of spaced practice. It will lead to better long-term retention in general.
