Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I drilled this recognition skill hard a while back and felt sharp at it, and now when I come back to it cold my eye has gone dull again
- I watch someone who’s genuinely good at this glance at the same thing I’m staring at and instantly catch something I can’t see at all
- I score great on the examples I practiced on and feel like I’ve really got it, but I’m secretly worried I’ve just memorized those specific ones
- When I look at an example, my eye gets grabbed by the obvious surface stuff
- Given enough time I can reason my way to the right call, slowly working it out

Philip Kellman’s research shows it can be induced rapidly with well-designed training software and produces durable, transfer-ready expertise that complements conceptual instruction. - Spaced perceptual review
Revisit previously trained perceptual categories at expanding intervals to prevent decay.
Perceptual Learning: Training Your Eye Before Your Mind - Expert-comparison study
Watch or listen to an expert perform and articulate what they are attending to that you are not.
