  "title": "Relearn to success on more than one day",
  "summary": "One successful recall is a milestone, not a lifetime membership.",
  "kind": "protocol",
  "body": "Successive relearning returns to the same material in later sessions and rebuilds successful unaided retrieval. Within a session, check mistakes and try again; across sessions, find out what survived. Keep a separate test for understanding and transfer: research on probability problems found much smaller benefits than a universal mastery claim would suggest.",

    "Repeatedly recalling a worked answer is not proof that you can solve a new problem."
