Read the passage below.
"Students often prepare for exams by studying a topic intensively in one long session. Research on memory suggests a different approach. When the same total study time is divided into several shorter sessions spread over days or weeks, learners typically remember more of the material long after the test. Psychologists call this the spacing effect. One explanation is that returning to material after a delay requires effort to recall it, and that effort strengthens memory. The finding has led some teachers to revisit earlier units periodically rather than leaving them behind."
