Comprehension, Coherence and Strategies in Hypertext and Linear Text
By P.W. Foltz
Because the technology is using everywhere in our daily life nowadays, we can’t really feel its change and its fast improvement in short time. Actually, the technology change our life differently and conveniently for past hundreds years. Its influence affects not only in our daily life but also in education.
After reading the article about hypertext and linear text, the habit of reading also change though the improvement of technology. The article describes the advantages and disadvantages about hypertext, the implication of hypertext and how to use it successfully. I think the hypertext can help students learn more individually. Students can read what they really want to know and what they are interested in. Moreover, they can find more information than teacher acquires them to do because they read what they really want to know. This reminds me that technology can shift from school to lifelong learning. Through technological teaching, no matter in hypertext or other new learning strategy can help students to be willing to learn more and learn more effectively.
