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?
