Chapter 3 = Hypertext and the Remediation of Print

1. Chapter 3 = Hypertext and the Remediation of Print

Observe:

     The layout and the information where there from the chapter. The only thing was structuring it. I feel that the video about hyperlinking was displayed way too early in the presentation.

-video about hyperlinking.

-Could have been a bit more creative about sources/pictures

- I think, computers are more likely to make mistakes.

-“Hypertext makes everything easier” (Nel)

- “Connecting to your previous point” (Nel) – that’s why it’s a path

-Graphics with text (Alex)

- I disagree with the quote about how hypertext illustrates our thoughts and mind. Computers cant express emotion, therefore, it cannot associate with our “minds”

-Hypertext can be controlling. They limit your choices of where you can go further. Providing you with a link, with no choice

Infer:

- Main points, hypertext is easier, it provides “wider spectrum of information” “books are more specific on one topic” Hypertext can offer a different page” (Cassandra)

- “Hypertext makes everything easier” (Nel)

- “Connecting to your previous point” (Nel) – that’s why it’s a path

- Every hypertext page is different, can have different mediums

- Hypertext can be difficult, has negatives and positives

- One point, You have control and a choice, delusion

- Another point, you don’t have a choice, no control

Question:

What made you choose that video?

To you, What makes hypertext better than print?

What made you choose the game “Telephone” as your interpretation of speech?

What made you choose these specific quotes from the chapter?

Where these quotes meant to prove just your point when there

are many points trying to be made in the chapter?

You play a video about hypertext and how fast it is, and how you cant stop, to later saying that it limits your ability to look up, which do you agree with?

For you Nel:
