— from ❐ How to do free recall (AKA active recall) - Language learning demonstration

• learning-method, #language-learning-strategy

• study what you want to learn with a textbook etc, e.g. ◊ vocabulary

• take a break for like 10 minutes
• come back, don't open your textbook, get a blank paper, write down everything you remember
• open textbook, and correct if needed
• do something else for a couple hours
• repeat

• ...can now make bigger intervals, as you would in SR

• sounds boring and tedious, though
