This validating sample is a part of Unit 2- Easy-to-understand language
Element 3- Processes.
This video includes a sample of validation
of an Easy language or Easy-to-read text.
This is not an example
of the interaction process between facilitators and validators
but rather an example of how a text is developed in the creation process
based on the input from validation.
This is an example of a text in Slovene Easy language
in its first stage of development.
Validating draft 1.
As seen in the image,
the facilitator added the validators’ notes.
They said the term ‘’strokovna pomoč’’ or ‘’professional help’’ in English
should be explained right away, within the text.
They also noted
that examples of what the professional help could be
should be added.
The image from Validating draft 2
shows the corrections by the author
based on the feedback from the first validation.
The term ‘’Professional help’’ is explained.
Also, this version already includes a drawing
as a complementary information
to the text.
This is the final, third Validating draft.
It was done by the designer,
which is visible from the pink title, for example.
We can see that the text and the image
were kept the same as in Validating draft 2,
nevertheless, the final version needs to be checked
before publishing.
Sometimes, in the process of design,
the layout could accidentally be altered.
Though produced by Zavod RISA,
the final Easy language or Easy-to-read sample
is owned by ZIZRS and is here reproduced with their permission.
