| Abstract | When creating or selecting texts for instruction, textbook writers frequently rely on their judgment about the difficulty of a text. For a more objective measure of text difficulty, text analysis tools are available. This paper briefly describes one such tool, Coh-Metrix, which can identify linguistic and psycholinguistic features of texts. The text analysis tool was used to analyze the texts in four textbook series that are used in Classes 1-4. The results on four parameters are displayed, allowing a comparison between textbook series and across grades. |
