> [!tldr]
> In Part 3 of the Readwise series, the author explains how to use advanced workflows for two types of reading: practical and theoretical. Practical reading aims for action, while theoretical reading focuses on gaining knowledge, and Readwise helps users capture and review key insights for both. By utilizing features like Inline Tagging and spaced repetition, readers can turn their reading into meaningful actions and lasting insights.
## Highlights
"Theoretical books teach you that something is the case. Practical books teach you how to do something you want to do or think you should do." [View Highlight](https://read.readwise.io/read/01j6mxk0qxsc1ge4ebcrabg7n8))
When you read something practical, you are seeking some sort of action — to *do*. When you read something theoretical, you are seeking some sort of knowledge — to *know*. [View Highlight](https://read.readwise.io/read/01j6mxkgms2x7rkwt6qqaaq144))

For example, we might make it so highlights tagged `.i` for inbox, like above, are accelerated into your daily reviews until you do something about them. [View Highlight](https://read.readwise.io/read/01j6my11vve93ecp1hwdrd5n9n))

to meaningfully understand a new concept, you need to ponder it repeatedly — in different moods and in different contexts, and from different perspectives. [View Highlight](https://read.readwise.io/read/01j6my5fjqcss9a8zb68vqerw4))

> Spaced repetition: A learning technique that involves increasing intervals of review for information to enhance long-term retention and mastery. By leveraging the psychological spacing effect, spaced repetition optimizes the timing of study sessions based on how well the learner knows the material, promoting efficient memory consolidation and reducing the forgetting curve. This method is commonly used in educational software and flashcard systems to facilitate language learning, exam preparation, and skill acquisition.

> [!note]
> Active recall: A learning technique that involves actively stimulating memory during the learning process, typically by testing oneself on the material to be remembered. This method contrasts with passive review strategies, such as rereading or highlighting, by emphasizing retrieval practice, which has been shown to enhance long-term retention and understanding. Active recall can take various forms, including flashcards, quizzes, and self-questioning, and is widely used in educational settings to improve learning outcomes.
