Learning through Multiple Points
I agree with many of the points in Liu's discussion of how the modern reader views electronic media. The discussion of how a person might not necessarily know all of the information on one page before moving onto the next is a very important difference between printed media and digital media. In a book, a reader is expected to use forward progression, advancing from the front to the back of the book. On the internet, however, people can flip through multiple webpages without fully absorbing the entirety of the information on each page. Also, people tend to really see only certain keywords, instead of reading full paragraphs. I therefore want to try and focus more on bigger topic keywords and adding more visually enhancing details to my site in order to make the reader more interested in the idea rather than reading long and boring paragraphs.
