This is from a report on the effect on student learning of remote teaching during Covid.
I have strong feeling that there is a specific term in English but dictionary search has failed so far.

: Overlearning has a negitive connotation to it. I still feel 'repition' is more neutral.

quantity training/learning
Also used in sports to emphasise the volume of training.
Quantity – Have your children read a wide variety of good books from children books, chapter books, fiction, historical fiction, cultural, biographies etc. Let them choose what they want to read, but read everyday.

Discussion
Very familiar with the term from pedagogy/foreign language teaching (repetitive drills).
But I was hoping that someone on ProZ would say - yeah, that is of course "xxx".
You don't actually say what it means in Swedish although I suspect you have a good idea. Can you tell us what it means to you as a native Swede?
Thanks
