One thing I do with my students is show them how to adjust text size and have them try out larger sizes. I think a surprisingly large number of people have never even attempted to change the text size on their devices and many can benefit from something different than the defaults. | ||||||||||||||

I sort of discovered this accidentally twice. First was when I go the Kindle I realized I could make the text as big as I wanted so I would do that, as stated before. Another time is when I wanted an external monitor and I bought a big TV because it was much cheaper. Because the TV was bigger the text was also bigger, and I realized how much easier it was for me to work. I think I used to feel like there was a "coolness" factor to keeping the text small. I don't know why I thought that, but I think what's much cooler than having lots of small text is actually being able to read and understand the text on the screen. Now I have no desire to impress anyone, and I keep my text in the browser at like 200%. | ||||||||||||||

Even on computer monitors, I always bump the scaling to 125% on modern high resolution screens. | ||||||||||||||
