a camera sensor;

a display screen;

a processor;

a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to:

receive an indication to open a text object;

identify, based upon analysis of context data associated with the text object, at least one article of key information contained within the text object;

ascertain, using the camera sensor, an aspect of user gaze within the text object;

determine, based on the identified at least one article of key information and the ascertained aspect of user gaze, a degree to which a user is apprised of the at least one article of key information contained within the text object, wherein to determine comprises identifying that the aspect of the user's gaze has fallen on the at least one article of key information for a predetermined period of time that is dynamically adjusted based at least upon a length of the at least one article of key information; and

provide, based on the determining, a visual indication of the degree to which the user is apprised of the at least one article of key information, wherein to provide comprises at least one of: preventing a user from continuing in the text object upon determining the at least one article of key information has not been read and detecting an acknowledgment input that the key information has not been fully read.

12. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the context data is at least one data metric selected from the group consisting of: a subject of the text object, an identity of a user of the information handling device, a job type of the user, an association between a creator of the text object and the user, a designation of the key information by the creator, and combinations thereof.

13. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the aspect is at least one comprehension aspect selected from the group consisting of: a focus of the user gaze within the text object, a length of the user gaze within the text object, a percentage of the text objected viewed by the user gaze, and combinations thereof.

14. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor to determine comprise instructions executable by the processor to determine that the degree to which the user is apprised of the at least one article of key information is an unapprised degree and wherein the instructions executable by the processor to provide the visual indication comprise instructions executable by the processor to visually distinguish the at least one article of key information from other articles of information in the text object.

15. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor to provide the visual indication comprise instructions executable by the processor to represent the degree to which the user is apprised of the at least one article of key information in a graphical format.
