hmmm...
From: www.supermemo.com/articles/sleep.htm
This website says that sleep learning:
A. Disturbs the quality of sleep, because brain circuts are more tuned into sensing danger than processing information.
B. Only really work during the 10 minutes of REM sleep out of every 90 min sleep cycle.
and from britannica.com:
"When EEG criteria of sleep are employed, it appears that "sleep learning" of verbal material takes place only to the degree that the person being tested is partially awake during the presentation of the stimuli."
I'm still very much interested though... Considering we spend one third of our lives sleeping, it would be exciting to be able to use that time for learning.
