Justification

  • White space is intentionally applied to match the grid format, helping users focus on relevant information (Lonsdale, 2023).
  • The layout is designed hierarchically, presenting overview information at the top and more detailed information as the user reads down the page (Lonsdale, 2023).
  • Font size and weight are used to create hierarchies of information within each section (Lonsdale, 2023).
  • To optimize readability for low vision users, chart headings and educational text are no smaller than 12-point font, and a sans serif typeface is used throughout the report (Russell-Minda et al., 2007).
  • Black text on all backgrounds of this report are well contrasted (Lonsdale, 2023).
  • Educational text is left aligned for legibility (Lonsdale, 2023)
