Reinforcement Intervals Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

To take advantage
of the spacing
and testing effects,
researchers
structured
spaced education
as a series of
detailed questions
and explanations
delivered via
mobile device
or computer
over spaced
intervals of time.

Learners receive
a notification
containing a clinical
scenario and a
multiple-choice
question.

Upon submitting
their answers,
participants are
immediately
presented with
the correct answer
and learning points
relevant to the question.

The questions are
then re-presented
over spaced
intervals of time
in a series of
cycled reviews
(interval reinforcements) .

An adaptive engine
customizes these
reinforcement
intervals based
on each learner's
performance.
