Forgetting is a natural process that happens to our memories. When learning, we need to interrupt forgetting to help remember. Find out how you can use retrieval practice, an evidence-informed strategy, to help you learn.

Actually, the likelihood is that you probably don’t remember. At least not well enough to be able to explain it to people. Even if you do remember the topic area, it might be a struggle to recall and you probably remember few of the details.
