Drawing on cutting‑edge findings in cognition and memory research, Make It Stick argues that traditional study practices—such as highlighting, rereading, and cramming—are largely ineffective. The book presents evidence‑based techniques like self‑testing, spaced repetition, deliberate difficulty, and interleaving that foster deeper, more durable learning. Targeted at students, teachers, trainers, and lifelong learners, it challenges common assumptions and offers practical strategies to enhance retention and problem‑solving skills.
