Breaking down the lesson into smaller parts helps to reduce the impact of the serial-position effect by allowing students to better retain information presented in the middle and end of a lesson. This is because each smaller part receives its own initial and recency effect, rather than one initial effect at the beginning and one recency effect at the end.
