Interleaving is the strategy of alternating between concepts during learning instead of practicing one skill at a time. Studies have shown that interleaving content rather than presenting information in separate sections throughout a class promotes retention (Richland et al., 2005; Rohrer, 2012). This Magna Online Seminar introduces the concept of interleaving and how best to incorporate it into your courses.
