Corrections Policy | Classroom Games

Last updated: October 7, 2026

Classroom Games aims to publish understandable educational content and games that behave as described. If you find an error, we welcome a specific report. This Corrections Policy explains how to send one and how we consider updates.

What counts as a correction

A correction may be needed when a factual statement is wrong, an answer key produces an incorrect result, a game instruction omits an important step, or a link points to an unrelated or outdated resource. Corrections can also include clarifying information that readers are likely to misunderstand.

Some reports concern technical defects rather than editorial mistakes, such as a broken button, timer problem, unresponsive mobile layout, or printable page that is cut off. We treat these as product issues and review them with the same aim of making the site more useful.

How to report an issue

Email contact@classroomgames.org with the subject “Correction request” and the direct URL of the page. State the exact sentence, answer, button, or behavior you believe needs attention. Explain the expected result, the actual result, and, where possible, include a reliable source or concise reproduction steps.

If the issue concerns keyboard access or screen reader output, describe the barrier without sharing students’ medical details or private records. The Accessibility Statement has additional accessibility guidance.

How we review a report

We identify the page, version, and specific claim or functionality at issue.
We compare factual claims with appropriate sources or verify a reported behavior with relevant tests.
We assess the significance of the problem, especially any risk to children’s privacy, safety, or understanding of a subject.
Where a correction is justified, we update the wording, answer key, configuration, or game code and check the affected behavior.
If an issue cannot be confirmed, we may seek clarification or document the limitation rather than invent a solution.

Prioritizing serious issues

We give higher priority to claims affecting children’s privacy, disclosures that may be misleading, safety concerns, serious educational inaccuracies, and failures that prevent a game from working at all. Spelling and formatting issues matter too, but they may have a lower immediate impact.

We do not promise a fixed response or completion time. Some problems depend on browser compatibility, third-party services, hosting changes, or information that requires additional verification.

Visible corrections and revision dates

Small spelling or formatting fixes may be made without a separate public note. For a substantive correction that changes the meaning of guidance or a critical game answer, a note or updated explanation may be appropriate so readers understand the change.

We aim not to misrepresent a page’s freshness. A changed publication date should reflect meaningful editorial work rather than an attempt to make unchanged content appear recently researched.

Feedback we cannot process fully

We may be unable to act on a report that does not identify any page, supplies unverifiable claims without enough detail, or asks us to alter a factual explanation in a way that conflicts with credible evidence. We also may need more information about unusual browser or device combinations.

A difference of teaching preference does not necessarily mean a factual error. We may revise language to acknowledge reasonable alternatives while keeping a demonstrably correct answer intact.

Privacy, copyright, and other requests

Requests about personal information or a child’s privacy should be sent using the procedures in Privacy Policy and Children’s Privacy. Copyright notices belong under the Copyright and DMCA Policy.

If you simply want to suggest a better activity, you can also use our Contact page. Reports about factual reliability are handled with reference to our Fact-Checking Policy.

Our commitment to improvement

Educational activities are most useful when teachers can understand, question, and adapt them. We view corrections and feedback as part of maintaining that quality over time, not as evidence that every possible error has already been found.

Thanks for helping keep the games useful and clear. For the latest available activities, see the Games directory and Teacher Resources.
