<title id="title">Practice retrieval across sessions</title>
<desc id="desc">A conceptual timeline shows initial study followed by recall and checking, a later session beginning with retrieval before rereading, and another return to retrieve or use the concept and check errors. An error log guides subsequent practice. Spacing is schematic and does not represent an optimal interval or measured gain.</desc>
