Engl 209 Final Project

The 209 final project should be an original hypertext which uses the technology (linking, multiple paths, images, targets etc) in ways which enhance your ideas. The project should be a text which relies upon (not merely uses) digital media. If I can print out your final project and not lose anything important, you're not using the technology in an important way.

If you're looking for ideas, consider the differences between print texts and digital or electronic texts. Do you read them differently? Do you write them differently? Consider the differences between works composed for print and those composed for the computer screen. What about works written for print but converted to digital texts?

As in the earlier Hypertext Annotation assignment, you can convert the text of the essay into plain text and copy the text into Composer® to begin the project. But then you'll need to consider the ways in which hypertext differs from print. Restructure the essay for an online audience, adding links, images, and targets.
