[摘要] :
本產學研究案蒐集英文閱讀教科書之內容進行可讀性之研究，結果顯示約三分之一的課程未能做由簡到難的規劃，僅就主題來區分內容。研究建議出版社可做最經濟的改變：以可讀性做閱讀內容順序之調度，若前後章節差異數值過大，建議可做適度的可讀性調整。若能接受如上建議，達成閱讀者感受閱讀內容漸進式的難度挑戰之功能，亦能提升本教科書內容設計之評價，並進而增加市場接受度。
[英文摘要] :
This paper reports on the study in relation to the readability of reading texts retrieved from an assigned course book used in a high-beginning level language course in a language university located in southern Taiwan. The purposes of this study were to investigate the reading ease as well as the grade level of the reading texts. Findings show that generally the texts were properly arranged in terms of reading ease and grade level; nevertheless, some advice and amendment could be considered to meet the student readers’ needs. Results of this study may raise the essence of readability measurement before teachers make the final decision in selecting textbooks.
