And the meme, according to dictionary.com, is... And our simple example today is...

Captain James Cook's Panglossian faith in science and navigation led him to believe that careful measurement, reason and discipline could overcome any danger the unknown Pacific might present.

Now on to our memory tip.

For our memory tip today, we will be talking about spaced repetition.

Spaced repetition is not a mnemonic itself, but a method of practice to review information at increasing intervals to strengthen long-term retention.

Rather than cramming information at the last moment, which is likely to be forgotten, space repetition revisits the material before it is likely to be forgotten.

This method is based on the forgetting curve, which is unique to each individual and is widely used in flashcard systems, language learning and exam preparation.

This practice makes the learning process more efficient and significantly improves long-term retention.

See you next week.

That doesn't make sense.
