Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Using too much text on a single card

Reason: Overcrowded flashcards are difficult to memorize and can lead to confusion. The brain struggles to process large chunks of information effectively.
Solution: Break down complex topics into smaller, more manageable pieces of information, using multiple flashcards instead of one.

2. Ignoring spaced repetition

Reason: Reviewing flashcards haphazardly leads to poor retention. The brain forgets information quickly if not revisited at optimal intervals.
Solution: Utilize Grasp's built-in spaced repetition system or a similar algorithm to schedule reviews effectively.

3. Not actively recalling information before flipping the card

Reason: Passively reading the answer reinforces recognition rather than recall, which is crucial for effective learning. You'll be better at recognizing than remembering.
Solution: Try to actively retrieve the answer from memory before flipping the card to enhance the learning process.
