About this episode
Eye movement research tells us much about reading and the reading process. This type of research looks at eye movement as people are engaged in authentic reading activities (reading passages vs. individual words). Eye movement research shows that our eyeballs do not move in a nice, straight, orderly line from left to right. Also, our eyeballs skip over 40% of the words while reading.
