The Leitner box: review what you forget, skip what you know. Learning on autopilot.
The problem it solves
Rereading feels like studying and produces almost nothing. Retrieval practice works, but without a system it is random.
What it is
A box with five compartments or dividers for index cards. Cards move forward when answered correctly and back to the first slot when missed, so difficult material comes up more often.
Who it is for
Students, language learners, professionals studying for certifications, and anyone who must remember facts.
How to use it so it sticks
Ten new cards a day. Review slot one daily, slot two every other day, slot three weekly and so on. Fifteen minutes total.
Who should skip it
If you already use a spaced-repetition app consistently, you have this digitally.
Verdict
The analog version of the most evidence-backed learning method there is.
