Unit Highlights

Lecture/Motivating Question:
How does the concept of linking effect the way we write, access information, share and collaborate, connect information sources around the world, use computer interfaces, construct information bases, and develop new information systems?

Special Class Presentations
The lecture will provide a brief overview of the field. Working with KMS in the lab (esp. for Blacksburg) gives people familiarity with that package and allows them to access the Hypertext Compendium. There is a very nice videotape on Intermedia, that relates directly to the second reading. The tape is on reserve in the media area of the library, and is highly recommended.

Computer Exercises:
There are several alternatives for the exercise, depending on student access to various resources.
