Abstract: Accelerated learning approaches require effective instructional methodology to ensure the necessary quality of the learning outcomes. Educational and psychological research determined there should be a sufficient number of repetitions of the same material in the learning process to provide for understanding and retention. Simple repetition, however, is insufficient; it takes several spaced cycles to achieve the desired result. An Iterative Instructional Model was developed to explain the process of effective learning based on spaced repetitions and implemented in teaching an accelerated General Physics unit. Theoretical foundations, research and practical implications of cyclic, iterative learning are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
