Editing Redundancy Principle (section)

== '''Challenges''' ==
Redundancy may not always be detrimental to learning. In fact, whether verbal redundancy poses negative effects may vary along with learners’ abilities and experiences with a topic. Learners with high experience may not always be negatively impacted by redundant text because they may have free cognitive capacity available to process and organize redundant information<ref name=":0" />, preventing them from getting cognitively overloaded by the redundancy. Redundant text in multimedia may also be beneficial for non-native speakers of a language or for those with hearing difficulties<ref name=":0" />. Thus, the redundancy principle is not one-size-fits all; learning content should be specifically tailored to learners’ backgrounds and expertise<ref name=":2" />.
