SpacedEd | Addictive Learning That Sticks
SpacedEd is a platform designed to allow learners and teachers to harness the educational benefits of spaced education. Spaced education is a novel method of online education developed and rigorously investigated by Dr. B. Price Kerfoot (Associate Professor, Harvard Medical School).
It is based upon two core psychology research findings: the spacing effect and the testing effect. In more than 10 randomized trials completed to date, spaced education has been found to:
* Improve knowledge acquisition,
* Increase long-term knowledge retention (out to 2 years),
* Change behavior,
* Boost learners’ abilities to accurately self-assess their knowledge.
In addition, spaced education is extremely well-accepted by learners.
