I haven't done any research on SRS, someone just sent me this video. I have to ask an ignorant question: How would one go about knowing which information is about to "fade to black" (speaking from the simulator) and therefore review the information on the cusp of being forgotten?
@uberscientist If you're using a program, like Anki, the program will take care of that for you. If you're doing it manually, then you keep separate decks of flashcards. When a flashcard is successfully reviewed, it's sent to the next deck. If it is not, it's sent back to the first. Each deck has it's own interval in which it is reviewed. The first every day, the second every three days, etc.
That method is known as the Lietner System. Google it for a more detailed explanation :)
Yes, that is very nice - better than any simple graphs of cramming vs spacing. Better download that in case it ever goes down, I definitely want to link it in my spaced repetition essay.

This is an excellent visual explanation of why SR method learners have their cake and eat it too. Thanks.
