This image is a graphic recording of a talk on plain language by Anna Samson and Hetty Mulhall. To the left of the image, some key take-aways are described and accompanied by a range of icons. For example, there is a drawing of a sports field along with the point that plain language is about levelling the playing field. There is also an image of weighing scales, along with the comment that plain language helps to reduce bower imbalances. To the right of the graphic recording is a list of specific tips for writing in clear language. These include: - Aim for grade 8 reading level - Read aloud what you have written - Use simple sentence structure - Get to the point and stick to essential information - Use alt text for images - Consider having more than one format for content such as written, video and audio - Check that font choice is easy to read and use colour contrast tools
