I really like this graphic from this week’s reading. I have generally thought of media as a brick wall for users, especially when interactions through a computer can be blocked when technology fails or is not “user-friendly.” As technology and user interfaces continue to improve, I can see how learning through hyper-media can be used to lead students on a journey of exploration.
Couldn’t agree more! It’s interesting that Ritz Bitz used an image that has some things in common with your “brick wall” (https://annamritz.wordpress.com/2015/03/04/ted-nelson-pushing-the-boundaries-of-human-knowledge-in-new-ways/)
