Despite its intended uniformity, there is a lack of consensus on its precise conceptualization, with various frameworks and guidelines proposing different approaches. This workshop aims to: 1. Provide a platform for researchers to discuss the production and evolution of Easy German texts. 2. Highlight dynamic changes and variability in Easy German texts compared to Standard German. 3. Examine the cognitive processing of Easy German through psycholinguistic studies involving the target demographic. 4. Critically assess AI-driven systems for Easy German text production, exploring their implications, opportunities, and challenges.
