Key Insights from Make it Stick

  • The most effective learning occurs when it is challenging and requires effort, a concept known as 'desirable difficulties.' This means embracing practices like spaced repetition and retrieval practice to enhance long-term retention of information.
  • Relying solely on passive study techniques, such as rereading and highlighting, can lead to a false sense of mastery. Instead, engaging with the material through active recall and self-testing promotes deeper understanding and memory retention.
  • Interleaving different topics or types of problems during study sessions is more beneficial than focusing on one area at a time. This approach helps learners better differentiate between concepts and improves their ability to apply knowledge in varied contexts.
