Final Project

Final Project: Describing Communication Technologies

For my final project I decided to look at the hyperlink. Its history and how it came to exist, how it has impacted reading, writing and communication and what that means for education and learning. The podcast I created, Tech Ed Weekly, provides and overview of the hyperlink and features a debate between a hyperlink and a traditional book. Have a listen!
