Observe:
This chapter is on hypertext, clickable text on internet pages. Hyperlinks are used to transport the reader to a different page on the same topic. They show relationships between pages and make up the web, connecting layers and layers of pages.
Infer:
The main point of the prezi is that reading in an electronic system is challenging to decipher, and hypertext is one tool used to make that process easier. This argument suggests that hypertexts are beneficial because they are more similar to the way we think. They allow reading to be less linear and more “tree-like” and can easily jump to another page, or tangent, on a specific part of the main page’s information. The point it, though they take practice to know how to navigate with them and can be a bit distracting, they are still a useful tool that will continue to help shape the internet. This is relevant to our lives today because the internet is an important tool and by learning about various parts of it we will be able to navigate it more easily and get the most out of it that we can.
Question:
Do hyperlinks give us more or less control over our browsing? Why?
How do hyperlinks help with the organization of the internet?
Is it possible for all text online to be hypertext in the future?
