An examination of reading material used in year 11 with special attention to social science textsNewton, V. P., n/a January 1982 (has links)
This study examines the readability of text books
used by Year 11 students at a Secondary College
in the A.C.T. Twenty-seven texts are examined
with the majority being taken from the area of
Social Science. The texts are examined using the
following measures, The Fry Readability Index,
The SMOG Formula, The Cloze Measure, The number
of Words per T-Unit and the level of Abstraction
of the text.
According to these indices between 60% and 84%
of the texts are too difficult for students
commencing Year 11.
This study also examined the interrelationship
between the indices.
A feature of this study is that it introduces
into readability measures a consideration of the
number of words per T-Unit and level of Abstraction

Ett utökat urval av litteratur till elever med lässvårigheter : Kan elever med lässvårigheter läsa icke lättläst barnlitteratur? / An expanded selection of literature for pupils with reading difficulties : Can pupils with reading difficulties read other than easy-to-read children’s literature?Fagerström, Emelie, Karlsson, Lizette January 2015 (has links)
The aim of this study is to analyse how children’s literature for ages 6 – 8 is adapted to pupils with reading difficulties. The material used for analysis in this study is six children’s books, examining some of the criteria by which a text is classified as easy-to-read. The result of the analysis shows that there is a possibility for pupils with reading difficulties to read something other than easy-to-read literature if it is carefully selected. The result also shows that the different criteria for an easy-to-read text cannot alone indicate whether a book as a whole is easy-to-read or not.
