The Leitner box is an effective tool for learning content. It consists of five compartments that facilitate the learning process by implementing the Leitner method. This method focuses on transferring information from short-term memory to long-term memory.

The Leitner box is based on psychological and educational principles. One principle is the forgetting curve, which suggests that people forget a significant portion of what they learn. After a day, approximately 45% of the information is forgotten, and after a week, about 80% is forgotten. Only 20% of the content enters long-term memory. The Leitner box addresses this by optimizing the repetition of information, ensuring that it is repeated frequently enough to be retained in long-term memory and counteract the effects of forgetfulness.

Another principle employed by the Leitner box is the Skinner learning law. According to this law, providing rewards after each learning operation intensifies the learning process. In the Leitner box, this principle is applied by allowing individuals to progress to the next section only after successfully learning the current one. This rating-like system motivates individuals to continue their learning journey.

By incorporating points and rewards for success, the Leitner box transforms learning into an engaging and enjoyable experience. It turns the tedious act of studying into a delightful game, where learners are motivated to earn points and witness their continuous success.
