With spiral learning, students learn a concept, then the concept is repeatedly revisited as new, related concepts or skills are introduced. Horizons incorporates this effective learning style in all subjects, but particularly within math and language arts learning. Where mastery-based learning focuses on one concept at a time until it is mastered, spiral-based learning focuses on multiple concepts that build upon one another.
