@Adam Lina: Just a shot in the dark here but if you're using Internet Explorer, try Google Chrome instead? I've had trouble on here with IE.

As you say - one could then use perspective grids and reference to check that the "recall" was correct.

10 Jun 00:31

Artloader

Well couldn't you invoke the "recall" process by attempting a sketch from memory and then checking that it is correct?

10 Jun 00:19

Yeah, not everything i this article will apply to art, this is mostly for academic learning, whereas a large part of what we do is internalising tacit knowledge

I think there's also a "recall" element to the Self Test strategy as well though - so a student might use a flash card which asks them to remember something and they try to recall it?

You self test with art with perspective grids and reference, and use them as an answer sheet.

10 Jun 00:09

OtherMuzz

--

Yep, from all the studies i've read that's my advice as well

10 Jun 00:08

Artloader

So that article is saying that Self Testing and Distributed Practice are the best 2 strategies?
