I wanted to do some blog posts on topics that have particularly begun to interest me recently - those around medical education. Over recent months, partly through my postgraduate medical education course, I have steadily realised that I have gone through well over a decade of higher education without ever being properly taught how to learn. This is quite a situation to be in with a training program as long as ours, and with a career of lifelong learning still to come. I therefore though I would start by looking at a topic that has really revolutionised my own learning over the past few months. The topic is that of ‘spaced repetition’ and I really don’t think I can understate the impact that it has had on my own retention of certain information.
