Text Simplification for Websites

Text simplification invites learners to customize the presentation of material in a way that makes it easier for that individual to access by reducing the amount of visual clutter and allowing for the use of customized fonts, spacing, colors and more! Read&Write for Google Chrome is an extension available in the Chrome browser for anyone in LCPS to use. The Simplify Page tool removes visual clutter from web pages and places the simplified text into a new tab. The amount of text displayed can be adjusted using the + and – icons. Visual contrast can also be customized (black on white, white on black, blue on yellow, and yellow on blue). Different fonts can also be selected.
