"New research studies support the idea that when learning difficult concepts, we'll learn more if forced to go through some mental hurdles, so to speak.
If a piece of information is very easy to process (e.g., in large Arial font), we may be over-confident in how well we've retained that information—and more likely to skim it—, while information that's presented in a more challenging fashion (e.g., small Comic Sans MS font) forces us to read more carefully and think more deeply about the material.
If you have editable documents presenting new material for you to learn, try switching the font style to one that's less familiar to see if this works for you."
