The exact change

Before

Article mischaracterized a real research team's actual methodology and cited a fabricated composite study with wrong year, journal, scope, and finding.

After

Corrected the Brydges citation to accurately describe their real self-guided-practice research design; replaced the fabricated Steenbergen-Hu citation with the real 2013/2014 Journal of Educational Psychology papers and their actual mixed findings.

Suggested change

See before/after.

Why this is better

The Sweller, Ayres, and Kalyuga 2011 meta-analysis citation and the MOOC/Learning at Scale 2014 citation in the same article verified as accurately described.

How this record is verified

  • The contribution is tied to a real, identified contributor, not an anonymous byline.
  • It counts only because the publisher, When Notes Fly, accepted it. Self-claimed work earns nothing.
  • It is recorded against a specific page and cannot be bought or edited after the fact.
