Lowering+the+Literacy+Burden+in+QA

Add your epxertise here on ways to reduce the literacy burden for less capable readers.
Here are some message from teachers in the the Quest Atlantis Teachers Facebook group where supporting poor readers was discussed...

[|Janis Watson] Helen, we do have a function in place for students with reading difficulties; unfortunately making the changes is a time-consuming effort so most of our content hasn't been converted yet. You might check out the Commission Missions (titled like "Unlocking... Social Responsibility"), though. So far those are the only content set up for easy reader formats.

Oh... and to access the easy-reader format, you should go to your My Questers tab in your Teacher Toolkit, click on a student who has reading difficulty, and at the bottom of their info window, select "easy reader" as their Language Version Preference. Students who don't have that marked will see the standard version of the mission, while those marked easy reader will get a version with lower readability scores.

[|Steven Caldwell] Mine too, though some do disengage if the frustration level is too high. As I mentioned before, editing quest goals is the key to success. Plus, creating a class avatar is one way to guide everyone through the narrative.
