The forgetting curve

Over 100 years ago, in 1885, scientist Hermann Ebbinghaus first introduced the concept of the forgetting curve as part of his research into the processes of learning and forgetting; it has since been validated by modern neuroscience and is still used today as a way to understand how to embed information into our long-term memory.

In this video, we discuss how to implement learning strategies that you can you use to interrupt your forgetting, and strengthen your neural pathways, so you can improve your overall course performance!
