1. Literary hypertext in the foreign language classroom: a case study report

   From the author:

   "Literary hypertext has often been acknowledged as the embodiment of poststructuralist literary theory (e.g. Coover, 1992; Landow, 1997; Bolter, 2001). The only literary medium that is produced, edited, published and received electronically, it encourages readings that defy the conventionally linear decoding process. With respect to text production, it opens up alternative ways of organising semantic structures in individualised, associative ways, which invites constructivist teaching approaches in the foreign language classroom. This article provides a general introduction to definitions, formal criteria, major theories and historical developments. It portrays a selection of existing structural and cognitive linguistic approaches, such as textuality, coherence, communication and learning psychology. A variety of teaching approaches are outlined to convey to what extent hypertext has entered the primary and secondary school syllabus.

   Deemer explains hypertext through experiences of his own and others in the field, like Ted Nelson and Vannevar Bush. While introducing relevant people and bits of history, the author also creates an understanding of what hypertext is as a new term to the vocabulary. This is done by every day relatable situations, before ending with statements about hypertext.

8. Coherence in text and hypertext

   From the author:

   The concept of text coherence was developed for linear text, i.e. text of sequentially organized content. The present article addresses to what extent this concept can be applied to hypertext. Following the introduction (section 1), I will define different aspects of text coherence (section 2). I will then explain the importance of the sequential order of text constituents for coherence-building, as explored by empirical studies on text comprehension (section 3). Section 4 discusses how hypertext-specific forms of reading affect the processes of coherence-building and coherence-design. Section 5 explores how the new challenges of hypertext comprehension may be met by hypertext-specific coherence cues. A summary and outlook is included (section 6).

10. Contexts, Intertexts, and Hypertexts

    From the Publisher: This collection studies the practical application of hypertext theory within the contexts of writing classrooms. It is directed toward scholars and teachers in computers and composition studies and connects the theoretical aspirations of hypertext with direct classroom applications. In presenting a group of "contextualized studies" of how hypertext has been used practically in classrooms, the authors concretize the claims and promises that have generated a great deal of attention around hypertext technology in the field.
