dc.description.abstract | Using examples from leveled readers as reference, Font Size and Styles in Educational Materials (Gosnell & Schles, 2023), helps explain how font size naturally decreases as students progress through grade levels and how font style can influence readability. This handout can be distributed to classroom teachers, families, instructional coaches, or curriculum creators to explain the impact font size and style has on readability. With this in mind, both learning media decisions and overall accessibility of day-to-day educational materials may be improved by the consideration and choice of font sizes and styles. By increasing readability, we can play a part in improving educational equity as all students, not just students with visual impairments, benefit from accessibility. | en_US |
