We're enhancing our mastery system to boost long-term retention, improve study habits, and deepen learning insights. This update benefits long-term learning by encouraging well-timed study intervals, sustaining motivation, and supporting mastery.

Our research shows that some problems are forgotten faster, highlighting the need for adaptive learning. Partnering with @noordhoff , we tested Tafeltrainer with 500+ students, finding it effectively improves times table mastery.

Last week we had another fun team activity! We hit the courts to play some Padel at Peakz Padel. It was exiting to see everyone bringing their A-game and cheering each other on! After all the action, we had some well deserved dinner. Here's to more memorable moments!

In this blog post Myrthe Braam will delve into our comparative analysis of the Model Based Mastery (MBM) algorithm versus our traditional Optimal Spacing (OS) algorithm, showing that the MBM algorithm helps students master lessons faster.

"In order to learn optimally one should strive to spend as much of their learning time in the zone of proximal development. That is, making memory retrieval difficult, but not too difficult. https://t.co/V5cmhfVdfH

The prospect of a high-stakes test can reduce the positive effects of retrieval practice on long-term retention. This weeks research commentary by our senior researcher @mavdvelde.
