The Retrieval Architect

Tired of the “factory reset” blank stares at the start of a lesson? In this video, we’re using the science of memory to beat the Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve.

The Summary: I’ll show you how to build the Retrieval Architect, a custom Gemini Gem that generates high-impact “3-2-1” starters for any subject. This isn’t just a quiz generator; it’s an engineered pedagogical tool that targets recent recall, interleaved learning, and schema-building connections.

What’s inside:

  • The Theory: Why students forget and how Spaced Repetition fixes it.
  • The Logic: Breaking down the 3-2-1 retrieval method.
  • The Build: A look “under the bonnet” at the master instruction.
  • The Demo: Watch the Gem process complex GCSE Music material in seconds.
