Chapter Three Bolton Presentation

Observe:
This presentation showed a blue background with white text. There was a good use of quotes from Bolton along with visual aids such as youtube videos and hyperlinks. It was very helpful to see these hyperlinks in working form going directly to webpages we all know and visit. It had a good organizational flow throughout this presentation that made it very understandable for the audience. There was some minor spelling errors on the presentation that probably could've been fixed, but overall it was understandable.

Infer:
This prezi discussed the difference between text and hypertext along with contrasting books and web pages. The definition of hypertext was stated, along with how hypertext is used in webpages. It was shown how hyperlinks can be used to move through different things and places online. According to Bolton, hypertext can enhance a reader's experience while reading.

Question:
     1. Is using hypertext always a benefit to a reader?
     2. Can hypertexts be distracting?
     3. Can hypertext be found anywhere else then on a webpage?
     4. What did you want your audience to take away from this chapter?
     5. Is the digital age taking away from classic writing?
     6. Is it necessary to have hypertexts when reading things online?
