<title id="title">Separate the encounters with the material</title>
<desc id="desc">Two illustrative schedules contain four practice encounters each. Massed encounters cluster in one sitting; spaced encounters occur over separate sessions. A lower strip shows attempting recall, checking the answer and adjusting the next review without assigning universal dates or retention percentages.</desc>
