1.Competencies
Understand the
concept of
hypertext
Learning
2.Competencies
Obtain information
in a customized
manner through
hypertext;
Digital devices, browsers, and
other similar technology have
made it very easy for readers to
obtain the information they
want, in the sequence that they
prefer. This is through the use of
links which takes the reader
into another text
HYPERTEXT is a non-linear way
to present information and is
usually accomplished using
“links”. Such links help the
readers navigate further
information about the topic
being discussed and may also
lead to other links that can direct
the readers to various options.

HYPERTEXT
a non-linear
digital reading
Examples: digital ebooks,
digital wattpad, digital modules,
enews and e-resources
HYPERTEXT is text displayed
on a computer display or other
electronic devices with
references to other text that
the reader can immediately
access.
HYPERTEXT documents are
interconnected by hyperlinks,
which are typically activated by
a mouse click, keypress set, or
by touching the screen.
Hypertext makes a dynamic
organization of information
possible through links and
connections(called HYPERLINK).
HYPERLINK- text only which
contains links to other text.
Hyperlinks are usually colored
purple or blue and are
sometimes underlined.
Hypermedia- not just text but
also images, sounds,
animation or videos
Multimedia-linking images,
videos, sounds and texts.
HYPERLINK
Advantages of using hypertext
1. Multiple paths of inquiry
2. Individualized learning
opportunities
3. Reader learner control
4. Supports the connection of
ideas
6. Creating new references
7. Critical thinking
8. Ease navigation
Disadvantages of using
Hypertext
1. Paper-based information is
more comfortable to read
2. Computer/gadget is required
3. Readers disorientation
4. Cognitive overhead
5. Causes eye restrain
6. Too much control
The World Wide Web (www) is a
global hypertext system of
information residing on servers
linked across the internet.
Hypertext is the foundation of World
Wide Web enabling users to click on
link to obtain more information on a
subsequent page on the same site or
from website anywhere in the world.
The term hypertext was coined by Ted
Nelson in 1963.
HYPERTEXT allows readers to access
information particularly suited to their
needs. Example, if a reader still needs
more background on a particular item
that a text is discussing, such as when a
reader does not know a particular term
being used, the reader can choose to
highlight that term and access a page
that defines the term and describes it.
A Uniform Resource Locator (URL),
colloquially termed a web address, is a
reference to a web resource that
specifies its location on a computer
network and a mechanism for
retrieving it. URLs occur most
commonly to reference web pages
(http) but are also used for file transfer
(ftp), email (mailto), database access
(JDBC), and many other applications
Today, links are not just limited
to text or documents but may
also incorporate other forms of
multimedia such as images,
audio, and videos that
stimulate more senses. This is
called HYPERMEDIA.
WHY HYPERTEXTS?
In a hypertext system, the
reader is free to navigate
information by exploring the
connections provided.
Hypertext is very different way
of presenting information than
the usual linear form.
Text no longer flows in a straight line
through a book. Instead, it is broken
down into many smaller units (lexias,
to borrow a term from literary
criticism), each addressing a few
issues.
It acts as a bridge between two basic,
opposite, and complementing
elements that may be called gender of
knowledge representation: free and
shortcut.
ACTIVITY 1! GOING WEBBY………

corresponding URL if you decide to
click on a particular link.

atures of an Effective Communica
1.Completeness
Complete communication is essential to the
quality of the communication process in
general. Hence, communication should include
everything that the receiver needs to hear for
him/ her to respond, react, or evaluate
properly.
2. Conciseness
Conciseness does not mean keeping the
message short, but making it direct or
straight to the point. Insignificant or
redundant information should be eliminated
from the communication that will be sent to
the recipient.
3. Consideration
To be effective, the speaker should always
consider relevant information about his/her
receiver such as mood, background, race,
preference, education, status, and needs,
among others. By doing so, he/she can
easily build rapport with the audience.
4. Concreteness
Effective communication happens when the
message is concrete and supported by
facts, figures, and real-life examples and
situations. In this case, the receiver is more
connected to the message conveyed.
5. Courtesy
The speaker shows courtesy in
communication by respecting the culture,
values, and beliefs of his/her receivers.
Being courteous at all times creates a
positive impact on the audience.
6. Clearness
Clearness in communication implies the use
of simple and specific words to express
ideas. It is also achieved when the speaker
focuses only on a single objective in his/her
speech so as not to confuse the audience.
7. Correctness
Correctness in grammar eliminates
negative impact on the audience and
increases the credibility and
effectiveness of the message.
VERBAL COMMUNICATION
Verbal Communication refers to an interaction
in which words are used to relay a message.
For effective and successful verbal
communication, use words to express ideas
which can be easily understood by the person
you are talking to. Consider appropriateness,
brevity, clarity, ethics, and vividness when
engaging in this type of communication.
Appropriateness
The language that you use should be
appropriate to the environment or
occasion (i.e., whether formal or
informal).
Brevity
Speakers who often use simple yet precise and
powerful words are found to be more credible. Try
to achieve brevity by being more direct with your
words. Avoid fillers and insubstantial expressions
which do not add to the message, such as “uh,”
“you know,” “I guess,” and others.
Clarity
The meanings of words, feelings, or ideas
may be interpreted differently by a listener;
hence, it is essential for you to clearly state
your message and express your ideas and
feelings.
V IVIDNES
Words that vividly or creatively describe
things or feelings usually add color and
spice to communication. Hence, you are
encouraged to find ways to charm your
audience through the use of vivid words.
ETHICS
Words should be carefully chosen in
consideration of the gender, roles, ethnicity,
preferences, and status of the person or
people you are talking to.
NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION
Nonverbal communication refers to an interaction
where behavior is used to convey and represent
meanings. All kinds of human responses that are not
expressed in words are classified as nonverbal
communication. Examples of nonverbal
communication are stares, smiles, tone of voice,
movements, manners of walking, standing and sitting,
appearance, style of attire, attitude towards time and
space, personality, gestures, and others.
Mastery of nonverbal
communication is important for
several reasons:
1. It enhances and emphasizes the message of
your speech, thus making it more meaningful,
truthful, and relevant.
