Hey all,
We wanted to take a moment and explain the recent changes regarding the Academy 2.0 and the readability, as we have received alot of feedback.
Why the Change?
Our research focused on balancing screen real estate with the optimal reading experience. Here is the reasoning behind the new layout:
- our research shows the ideal line length for comprehension is 60โ66 characters per line (CPL).
- The Problem with Legacy: In our legacy version, lines often stretched to 90โ134 characters. Research indicated that lines exceeding 80 characters are "intimidating" and are skipped 41% more often.
- Preventing Fatigue: Extremely long lines force the eye to make long "return sweeps," which leads to "undersweep" errors 57% of the time, requiring corrective eye movements that slow down reading.
Our Solution: While 60โ66 CPL is technically ideal, we have adjusted the new Academy to 90โ100 characters. This provides a better reading rhythm than legacy while preventing the excessive "blank space" that occurs at stricter academic widths.
We've also made the following changes since:
- Increased Content Width: We have expanded the text area to provide more characters per line based on your feedback.
- Hidden Top Navigation: The global menu is now hidden within the module to increase vertical focus space.
- Dynamic Completion Menu: The "Next Section" menu is no longer sticky; it now appears only as you scroll to the end of a section to reduce visual clutter.
We will continue to analyze usability and welcome your feedback as we refine the platform.
