PROPERTIES
Design Design should be simple .
It should be age appropriate.
Text Screen text should be minimal in
Interface and most instances. However, when texts
Information are required, consider the following
points:
Design for 1.Text instruction within the AIRs
Digital AIRs should be limited to single sentences,
dot points or short paragraphs.
2.Texts in the body of the AIRs should
be restricted to information required
for completing the activities.
Sound and atmospheric effects
consistent with the context for
learning (an authentic voice and
literacy and language support)
Consideration of the amount of
Interface and audio required to ensure engaged
Audio and effective learning needs to be
Information balanced. Where audio is required,
Design for it must be possible for the user to
Digital AIRs directly control the audio, that is,
they can turn it on or off and can
replay it.
Complete synchronization of the
audio and visuals must be
observed.
Graphics Navigation in digital LRs should use
and intuitive graphics rather than text
Animation whatever possible. Interface and
information design should focus on the
Interface and use of space and movement to enhance
visual learning.
Information Graphics should be supported by texts (or
Design for numbers)
Graphics should be age-appropriate.
Digital AIRs Animations require user control – start,
stop, replay.
Animations should be used to illustrate
processes rather than simply replace text.
Clear color should be used in graphics.

3. Use the Summary of Findings template to identify the specific parts that
need to be corrected/revised by indicating specific pages and line numbers.
Guide in the Content Evaluation of AIRs
Instructions:
Carefully read ASs page by page to evaluate its compliance to
standards indicated in the criterion items under the six (6)
factors indicated.
Put a check mark (a) in the appropriate column beside each
criterion item. If your answer is NO, cite specific pages,
briefly indicate the errors found, and give your
recommendations in the attached Summary of Findings form.

Guide for the Language Review
Evaluate the assigned AS one at a time. Carefully read the AS page by page to
identify language errors using the following guidelines in making your marginal
notes:
Coherence and Clarity of Thought
Do the statements / phrases in the AS make sense?
Do the sentences in the paragraph contribute to one idea?
Are the thoughts / ideas logically sequenced?
Are conjunctions and transitional phrases used to link sentences or paragraphs?
Is the choice of words / expressions appropriate?
Are the sentences too long or complex?
Is the language appropriate for the target readers?
Guide for the Language Review
Consistency in Style
Where alternative spellings are permitted, was a choice made and used
consistently throughout the material?
Write your comments and findings on the margins of the AS while examining
them. Highlight the portion that needs to be improved / revised or where the
error is found. Specify comments, findings, and recommendations beside the
highlighted portion to guide the development team in revising the AS.
Re-read your written marginal notes and validate / confirm your comments /
findings. Make changes, if needed, to make your review as consistent and
thorough as possible.
Guide for the Language Review
Based on your marginal notes, prepare a summary of findings report to indicate the
errors found in the module/s and the recommended revisions. Use the Summary of
Findings template.
After individual evaluation of each AS, immediately submit with marginal comments
and the duly accomplished summary report on a staggered basis until all assigned ASs
have been evaluated.
Guide for the Language Review
If deemed necessary, discuss your report with the development team or focal persons to
clarify findings and agree on the revisions and improvements to be made in the AS
evaluated.
Guide for the Layout and Design Evaluation
Instructions:
1. Carefully read the AS page by page to evaluate the AS for compliance to standards
indicated in the criterion items under the four (4) factors below.
2. Put a check mark () in the appropriate column beside each criterion item. If your
answer is NO, cite specific pages, briefly indicate the errors found, and give your
recommendations in the attached Summary of Findings Form.
3. Write Not Applicable (NA) for criterion items that do not apply in the AS
evaluated.
4. Based on the number of criterion items marked “YES” under each factor, mark the
appropriate column to indicate if the LR complied or not to the standards.
5. For factors with items marked Not Applicable, count the total applicable criterion
items and multiply this with 70% to determine the cut off for compliance.
Guide for the Layout and Design Evaluation
