Qualitative Source 

    This article is a qualitative source. The article goes on to explore how these literature instructors are evolving their teaching strategies and growing how students can learn and use different resources. The teachers within the article start to use hypertext within their teaching. There are different ways the article states how the teachers are doing this for example they are evolving there teaching ways by, putting course materials online, creating online tutorials, using different annotated hypertexts instead of certain print texts and teaching students how to create and understand thesis hypertexts. Not to get into too much detail but from the included link from the article it explains how each of these strategies are done in detail. 

This source relates to this week's readings as they are discussing the same topic which is hypertext. The article that I found shows how teachers are using hypertexts in their teaching and changing the way students can use these as useful tools. This is relatively close to the three articles we read this week because those discussed how we use hypertexts and what they are. Funny enough we all use them everyday in our life and in school. While reading this article I found plenty of similarities to this week's readings , I also found some facts that can wander some questions I had about using hypertexts in a classroom. This article did a great job explains how to use this tool in a classroom efficiently.

Ed Tech Introduction

Hello everyone! My name is Dylan McDonald, and I’m excited to share a bit about myself. I’m originally from Lemoore, California, where I developed a love for working out, cooking, and building LEGO creations. Currently, I wrestle for Minot State University as the starting 125-pounder and also serve as a student representative for SACC. I recently completed my bachelor’s degree and am now pursuing my master’s. My journey to Minot was driven by the opportunity to receive an excellent education alongside a wrestling scholarship. While I’ve embraced this new chapter of my life, adjusting to the cold North Dakota weather has been challenging—I often find myself missing the 100-degree days back in California, not to mention my family. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I’m looking forward to making the most of my time here at Minot State!

       This week's readings really opened my eyes as I didn't realize how much I used hypertext in the past in school and everyday life. I find hypertext to be a great tool for students to use especially for projects needing a lot of information and external sources. This is a way to learn about certain things within an article that can help them discover a deeper meaning of anything. Using hyper links can help expand our thinking and create a useful tool for all.       The question asked in my head a lot was why are these hypertexts important and useful to us now and here is what I found to wander that question, Hypertexts allow us to access information easier swell as find different sources needed without the manual labor of going and searching of them. Hypertexts also  make it a lot easier to organize large amounts of information like  Websites, blogs, and digital encyclopedias which rely on these hypertext to categorize and connect i...
