How to study this course (the neuroscience built in)

Active Recall

Answer the recall questions BEFORE revealing. Trying to remember — even failing — builds memory 3x stronger than rereading.

Spaced Repetition

Completed lessons return for review after 1, 3, 7, 21 and 60 days. Review exactly when you're about to forget.

Chunking

Each module is one small digestible chunk with a one-line memory hook. Finish a chunk fully before starting the next.

Feynman Technique

Every module ends with a teach-it-back prompt. If you can't explain it simply, you haven't learned it yet.

Interleaving

Mixed revision phases deliberately shuffle topics — discrimination between problem types is what exams test.

Dual Coding

Interactive simulators pair visuals with text. Two memory channels beat one — always do the interactives, not just the videos.

Curriculum

Feynman Prompt — teach it back

Explain a webpage load using the letter-delivery analogy — all 7 layers, no notes.
