Massed practice refers to cramming or intensively repeating a task or study material in a short time. It is more effective for short-term learning, but it doesn't allow the brain to consolidate and store the information in long-term memory effectively. Distributed practice, on the other hand, involves spreading out the learning sessions over time with intervals of rest in between. This approach allows for the consolidation of information, retrieval practice, and a better chance of long-term recall. Therefore, massed practice is to short-term learning while distributed practice is to long-term recall.
