Graduate Programme 'Easy language and inclusion'

Presentation

The Graduate Programme " Easy Language and Inclusion" focuses on the readability and accessibility of spoken and written texts and the development of tools to assist in the (re)writing of texts or the production of appropriate speech, in order to facilitate better understanding. The aim is to train students in the principles of simplified language according to:
-    the type of text: administrative, legal or informational documents, forms, questionnaires, narrative fiction, instructions, etc.;
-    the type of audience: children, adults with learning difficulties, non-native speakers (French as a foreign/second language), people with low literacy skills, people with disabilities, etc.
Simplified language is a cross-disciplinary topic at the intersection of many fields of study and application: in language sciences (for identifying accessible grammatical and lexical variations), in education sciences (for facilitating the transmission and acquisition of knowledge), translation (for choosing variants in first and second languages), health (for improving communication between caregivers and patients), law and public administration (for facilitating access to information), and even in the fields of communication sciences, design and ergonomics.
