Discover the keys to learning effectively in the new episode of INTERVALLE with Emilie Gerbier.

 


How can you learn effectively? How can you organize your revision to commit information to memory for the long term? What role does sleep play in the memorization process?

In this episode, we explore the mechanisms of memory and strategies for long-term learning with Émilie Gerbier, a psychology teacher and researcher at the BCL - Bases, Corpus, Langage laboratory (Université Côte d’Azur, CNRS). 

Why is simply rereading a text a poor learning strategy?
How can spacing out your learning improve the quality of your memory?
Why is testing your knowledge much more powerful than rereading multiple times?

These are some of the key questions addressed in this episode of INTERVALLE, proposed and produced by the Science and Society department of Université Côte d'Azur.
