| Abstract | Prompting people to estimate climate change numbers before showing them the true value can shift learners' attitudes and conceptions. Yet, interventions created for such a learning experience are not easily accessible to the general public. The purpose of this preregistered study was to address this research gap by developing and testing an openly accessible online intervention that presents participants with novel numbers about climate change after they estimate those numbers. An experimental online study design was used to investigate the impact of the intervention on undergraduate students' climate change understanding and plausibility perceptions. Findings revealed that posttest climate change knowledge was higher among those randomly assigned to use the app compared with those assigned to a control condition, and that supplementing this experience with numeracy instruction was linked with more robust gains.
