Large-scale randomized experiments reveals that machine learning-based instruction helps people memorize more effectively

Abstract We perform a large-scale randomized controlled trial to evaluate the potential of machine learning-based instruction sequencing to improve memorization while allowing the learners the freedom to choose their review times. After controlling for the length and frequency of study, we find that...
