Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we explain the neuroscience behind our RAMP bar study tool -- which we introduced in a recent episode. We discuss the limitation of working memory, which makes it essential to move legal rules into long-term memory through spaced repetition and scaffolding. 

In this episode we discuss:

  • The research and science behind our RAMP bar study tool
  • Scaffolding and why we use three learning tiers
  • Studying through spaced repetition
  • RAMP study mode features and confidence calibration
  • How much information can our working memory hold?
