42. Siren Shapes

1988 - "Siren Shapes: Exploratory and Constructive Hypertexts" was written by Michael Joyce


In "Siren Shapes: Exploratory and Constructive Hypertexts," Joyce presents his hopes for the future of the World Wide Web allowing for the advancement of educational learning. I believe that constructive hypertexts would definitely add to the educational experience by allowing students to truly interact with their work and provide them with the ability to add to the World Wide Web experience. I do also believe, however, that such constructive environments will most likely not be able to work in today's society. Maybe down the road further technological advancements will grant access to constructive hypertexts for educational development, but I don't think that will happen for a while.
