Where's the research on that? I would be tremendously surprised if that result held for learning a variety of interwoven topics that depend on (or are at least related to) each other, e.g. a bunch of CS classes. I'd be similarly surprised if that result held for learning something that you also use regularly as part of your hobby or job (e.g. programming).

Well, what you mention is basically a continuation of learning... That's not what I was talking about.
