Below are factors to consider with respect to the reader and task:
Potential Challenges this Text Poses:
The layout of this particular text could propose potential
challenges to younger readers. The format is set up similar to a
textbook, which often increases the difficulty of comprehension,
as students see it as individual concepts instead of a cohesive set
of information about one topic.
Also, the content heavy vocabulary can also cause potential
difficulty for readers. The vocabulary used within this text includes
the names of places and people, as well as geographic terms that
are unfamiliar to most students. If students have a strong
geography background, it would be very beneficial for this
particular text.
