Text adaptation involves making the existing text more comprehensible for students. Methods for adapting textbooks include using study guides, highlighting important points, or using alternatives to reading such as audio taping text chapters or reading aloud. To minimize the time involved in making adaptations, Mr. Ellis wants to consider purchasing commercially available study guides. In addition, he may pair students with another student who can read aloud the text.
