Abstract

A learning technique known as “interleaving” has helpfully started to make its way into the study tips that law students receive. This essay, however, suggests that interleaving has an additional application as well. Just as the technique can make study sessions more productive, it can also make editing sessions more productive.

Keywords: editing, cognition, advocacy, persuasion, writing

JEL Classification: K1
