However, following this, that equation is not enough in itself but a 'specific exploration-exploitation sequence' is needed to increase the likelihood of a hot streak.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
