Report

There are several spelling mistakes which makes your quiz not as effective. In addition to this with the question "

"true or false that schemas improve EWT's?"

It's both true and false because schemas do help improve EWT but at the same time they allow you to recall inaccurate information which was proven to be true in the study by Treyen and Brewer, apart from that it's an OK quiz.

its ok; but the spelling mistakes let the quiz down and make it seem unreliable.
