Layout changes in the textbook for learning English and their influence on the dyslexic students’ work effectiveness – an eye-tracking analysis

The aim of the following article is to present the results of the second part of an eye-tracking study conducted on Polish secondary school students working with a textbook for learning English. Because of the fact that almost every group of school students consists of both dyslexic and non-dyslexic ones and that all of them use the same textbooks, we wanted to examine if we can adjust the textbook for learning English in such a way as to influence (i.e. improve) the way the students work with it. To check it we used a real-existing layout of a textbook page and its changed version and checked how dyslexic and nondyslexic students worked with them. In the article we present the eye-tracking parameters for so called areas of interest as well as correctness of the answers which is a nonoculomotor parameter.
