1️⃣Passive Learning = Poor Retention - Deepstash

1️⃣Passive Learning = Poor Retention

🔹 Teachers using platform-generated exercises often follow a rigid structure, making students passive listeners rather than active learners.

🔹 Research shows that passive learning (watching, clicking, repeating) leads to weak memory retention.

🔹 For ADHD learners, passivity = boredom = zero learning.

💡 What works instead? Active recall, spontaneous discussions, and real-world speaking practice—not just clicking through lessons.
