   Retrieval practice produces more learning than elaborative studying with concept mapping.

   Science (New York, N.Y.)·2011125 influential citations

   Educators rely heavily on learning activities that encourage elaborative studying, whereas activities that require students to practice retrieving and reconstructing knowledge are used less frequently. Here, we show that practicing…

   A Cohort Study Assessing the Impact of Anki as a Spaced Repetition Tool on Academic Performance in Medical School.

   Medical science educator·2023·n=13070 influential citations

   Introduction Anki is an application that capitalizes upon the techniques of spaced repetition and is increasingly utilized by medical students for examination preparation. This study examines the impact of Anki usage in a medical school…

3. 03

   A spaced-repetition approach to enhance medical student learning and engagement in medical pharmacology.

   BMC medical education·202265 influential citations

   Background Pharmacology is a cornerstone of medical education as it underlies safe prescribing practices. However, medical students have reported unease regarding their perceived proficiency in medical pharmacology. Despite the significant…

4. 04

   Student-directed retrieval practice is a predictor of medical licensing examination performance.

   Perspectives on medical education·2015·n=7261 influential citations

   Introduction A large body of evidence indicates that retrieval practice (test-enhanced learning) and spaced repetition increase long-term information retention. Implementation of these strategies in medical curricula is unfortunately…

5. 05

   The critical importance of retrieval for learning.

   Science (New York, N.Y.)·200857 influential citations

   Learning is often considered complete when a student can produce the correct answer to a question. In our research, students in one condition learned foreign language vocabulary words in the standard paradigm of repeated study-test trials.…
