As a concept, spaced repetition has been around for decades. Yet in many organisations, learning is seen in terms of one-off interventions, delivered through a classroom or an LMS.

In this week's episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross D and Gemma are joined by Sarah Mercier, CEO of Learning Ninjas, to discuss:

  • what spaced learning is, and how to design for it
  • what good spaced practice looks like
  • the technological boundaries to implementing spaced learning
