The readability of language learning materials refers to the clarity and accessibility

of the language used. Materials should use simple and clear language appropriate
for the level of the learners, and should be free of errors and ambiguities.

d. SARAG (Background behind Ethnicity, Religion, Race, and Gender):
SARAG refers to the background information on ethnicity, religion, race, and

gender that is included in language learning materials. This information should be

accurate, relevant, and inclusive, and should help learners understand the cultural
context of the language they are learning.

It is important to note that these rated components are not mutually exclusive and
can overlap. For example, presentation can impact readability and the

material/content can impact SARAG.

When assessing language learning materials, it is important to consider all of these
aspects and how they contribute to the overall effectiveness of the materials in

facilitating language learning. Materials that score well in all of these areas are
more likely to be effective in promoting language acquisition and helping learners

achieve their language learning goals.
