Lesson 06: The Compression Algorithm

🧠 Lesson 06: The Compression Algorithm Your brain doesn't learn from reading — it learns from getting things wrong. When you generate an answer from memory and compare it to reality, the mismatch creates a targeted error signal. That signal tells your brain EXACTLY where to update. No error signal? No update. No learning. Roediger & Karpicke (2006) found that students who tested themselves retained ~50% more than those who re-read the same material. Same content. Same time. Radically different results. The test isn't the assessment — it's the learning event itself. In this lesson, we explore: • The Generation Effect — why producing output beats passive review (Slamecka & Graf, 1978) • The Testing Effect — how retrieval creates dramatically better long-term retention • The Error Loop — Predict → Compare → Error → Update • Why "Desirable Difficulty" means struggle is the feature, not the bug (Bjork, 1994) • The direct parallel to AI loss functions and backpropagation • Practical strategies for building error correction into any learning workflow 📚 RESOURCES & REFERENCES Original Research: • Slamecka, N.
