• 525 – Variability of Practice & Education of Attention
    Jan 28 2025

    Does adding more variability to practice conditions aid the process of education of attention? Can we predict the trajectory through informational space that occurs during learning?

  • 522 – Variability of Practice – A Deeper Dive
    Jan 7 2025
    Variability of practice helps motor learning. That is an undeniable fact. But let’s consider some of the subtleties: what are the different ways we can create variability in practice? How do the benefits of variability depend on the initial variability of the learner? Why exactly does variability have its effect? When should it be introduced? Articles:
    How Variability Shapes Learning And Generalization
    Changing Up the Routine Intervention-Induced Variability in Motor Learning
