# Alternating learning and practice

Learners alternate between consuming learning content and completing AI roleplay exercises. Each round of content introduces or develops skills that are then put into practice, creating an ongoing cycle of learning and application.

-   [Step by step](https://www.getskylar.com/learning-journeys?filter=structured-sequence)

## How it flows

1.  ### 1\. Content
    
    A short block of content introduces a skill or idea.
    
2.  ### 2\. Practice
    
    Learners put that skill straight into an AI role-play.
    
3.  ### 3\. Content
    
    The next block of content develops the skill further or adds a new one.
    
4.  Repeat
    
    ### 4\. Practice
    
    Another role-play applies it, and the cycle continues.
    
    The cycle repeats
    

## Good for

-   Courses split into modules
-   Methods where skills build on each other

## In Skylar

1.  1 Build each module as content plus a role-play on the skill it teaches.
2.  2 Track scores for each learner and cohort, module by module.
