Learn about Text Formats
in the
Readability Explorer
Developed by DARPA engineers with a long history of digital tutor development, Exquisitive’s tutoring modules, offer individualized, immersive learning for unrivaled results.
Engage with Exquisitive’s Readability Explorer to learn about your best text format for reading. The tutor will walk you through selections, allowing you to experience the difference a change to font, character width, and character spacing can make for you.
Readability Matters appreciates the partnership of the team at Exquisitive. They have deep expertise in creating effective learning modules combined with a platform carefully architected for data analysis. The team had already observed the difference a change to font could make for their users as they had offered font choice and seen it used to improve outcomes for learners. Together, we can explore new ways of assessing personalized reading formats in a naturalistic environment. Assessment is a necessary first step for educational use.
Future Plans
This first release of the Readability Explorer demonstrates the possibility of delivering text format personalization assessment in an interactive tool. It explores reader preferences related to character width and spacing. Future enhancements will add additional readability features (size and line spacing, for example), additional grade levels, and assess reading speed and comprehension to refine and deliver text format personalization recommendations. When complete, the Readability Explorer will be added to other Exquisitive Tutor modules.
Watch for updates as Readability Matters and Exquisitive continue to evolve the tool, helping everyone become the best reader they can be.
