The Gunning Fog index is one such test. Once you have written a draft it will probably need to be edited . Design and layout Design and layout is about the use of spaces, different typefaces, headings, illustrations, and colour to make the words on the page have more meaning and interest. It makes an important contribution to the impact and clarity of a resource. Visually striking or humorous pictures can often capture attention and attract the interest of readers.
Illustrations are also an effective way to reinforce written messages.
They do not have to be very expensive. Effective educational materials can be developed with simple line drawings or sketches. They also provide examples of illustrations and lettering that can be enlarged and adapted. At the end of this stage, you should have developed and designed a draft of the resource, including text and illustrations based on your research and understanding of the audience. You have checked that the information is technically and factually correct.
