Cognitive Load Just KILLED Active Recall (How I Used ENCODING At Medical School)

So if you search YouTube for evidence-based study techniques you'll be presented with loads and loads of videos on #activerecall and #spacedrepetition from students and experts and it makes it seem as though these are the only learning techniques that you need and if you use them you'll definitely ace your exams or learn effectively.
The problem is that the sheer volume of videos and opinions means it can be super confusing to actually know how to apply these learning techniques to your own studies and to actually understand when to use them.

I dive into why #encoding and cognitive load theory (CLT) are as important if not more important to efficient learning than active recall and spacing and how you can apply these less-hyped learning theories to study smarter, not harder, get better grades and make learning stick.
