Spaced repetition

At Wranx, we provide cutting-edge software to help you deliver learning opportunities, including what is commonly called spaced repetition training. It’s one of the best ways to learn online and is effective in helping employees to retain information quickly and for longer.

Spaced Repetition is a scientifically proven learning method and the backbone of Wranx’s innovative design. Spaced Repetition is based on the theory that the best way to learn is to be reminded of something right before you are due to forget it. By intelligently adapting the duration between questions, Wranx helps the learner’s brain to move knowledge from their short-term memory into their long-term memory more efficiently!

The forgetting curve

The forgetting curve is a concept in psychology that describes how we forget information over time if we do not actively work to reinforce and retain it. The curve was first developed by German psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus in the late 19th century and is based on his experiments on memory retention. The forgetting curve illustrates how much information we tend to forget over time, with a steep decline in retention shortly after learning, followed by a slower decline over time. This means that if we do not actively reinforce what we have learned, we are likely to forget a significant portion of it relatively quickly. The curve underscores the importance of repetition and reinforcement in learning, and is one of the reasons why spaced repetition techniques, like those used in Wranx, can be so effective in helping individuals and organizations to retain knowledge and improve performance over time.

Bitesize is the right size

Not everyone is primed to work from a textbook or get everything out of a long video lesson or tutorial. People’s attention can drift in and out and there’s no way of really understanding how much they are absorbing. Spaced repetition training has the advantage that it works for practically everyone. Employees go at their own pace and the system will adjust and tailor delivery to that individual’s comprehension. Because the learning sessions are broken down into bite-sized chunks, it’s also easier for people to organise their learning time and fit it into their busy lives.
