This SIGCSE paper studies a retrieval-based teaching design in computer science education. It connects the mechanics of assessment and practice to spaced behavior and course outcomes. The paper links a concrete teaching method to the broader adaptive-learning program: the learning system should shape when and how learners retrieve knowledge, not simply deliver pages or videos.
