Quantitative Measures – Readability and other scores of text complexity often best measured by computer software. Qualitative Measures – Levels of meaning, structure, language conventionality and clarity, and knowledge demands often best measured by an attentive human reader. Reader and Task Considerations – Background knowledge of reader, motivation, interests, and complexity generated by tasks assigned often best made by educators employing their professional judgment. Overview of Text Complexity
Lexile levels are based on a readability formula that examines word frequency & sentence length. • Scores range from below 200L to above 1600L for advanced readers • CCSS require higher Lexile scores than ever before. For example in Grades 4-5 from 645-845 to 770-980 Increase in Required Lexile Levels
