A method includes detecting an eye movement of a reader during a reading of presented text; determining, based on whether an eye movement is detected, whether the reader is looking at the presented text; pausing a presentation of the presented text if it is determined that the reader is not looking at the presented text; and resuming, if the presentation of the text is paused, the presentation of the presented text.

A method for managing engagement and presentation content of an electronic document involves providing container metadata identifying engagement containers within the electronic document, providing engagement data linked to the engagement containers, the engagement data comprising parameters of an engagement based on the segments of content in the linked engagement containers, executing a procedure to traverse engagement containers identified in the container metadata. The procedure includes accepting, based on user input, data responsive to the engagement, and assigning a score for the current engagement container based on the received data and the parameters defined in the engagement metadata.

Exemplary visual processing devices and methods are disclosed. Example devices may include a visual processing aid having at least one anchoring element (76) that is attached to a housing (74) such that the anchoring element is positioned proximal to a line of sight, between an optic nerve of a user and a scene. The anchoring element has a predetermined, uniform change in the value of a property, to enable a user to assimilate visual information from a left visual field and a right visual field, quickly and accurately and produce an image of a scene. Other devices and methods are described and shown.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to enhancing reading retention of users reading electronic text. A set of user data associated with a user currently reading electronic text on a device is received, the set of user data indicative of a reading retention of the user. The set of user data is analyzed to determine whether a retention enhancement action should be issued. In response to a determination that a retention action should be issued, the retention enhancement action is issued at the device the user is currently reading electronic text on.
