GAS-11

3. a TEXT text is
neither written nor read
in a vacuum; its meaning
and interpretation are
affected by a given set of
circumstances.

4. a CONTEXT
is defined as the social, cultural,
political, historical, and other
related circumstances that
surround the text and form the
terms from which it can be
better understood and
evaluated.

6. HYPER
TEXT
a nonlinear way to
present information

7. HYPER
TEXT
Hypertext is a nonlinear 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.

8. Ted Nelson, 1963
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.

9. Hypertext
also allows the readers to create their
own meaning out of the material
given to them and learn better
associatively. Hypertext is text
displayed on a computer display or
other electronic devices with
references to other text that the
reader can immediately access.

10. Hypertext
documents are interconnected
by hyperlinks, which are typically
activated by a mouse click,
keypress set, or by touching
the screen. Rather than
remaining static like traditional
text, hypertext makes a dynamic
organization of information
possible through links and
connections (called hyperlink).

11. In a hypertext system, the reader is free to
navigate information by exploring the
connections provided.

12. INTERTEXT
process of text development that merges two
more processes such as imitation and
creation in doing a text.

13. INTER
TEXT
● Intertext or intertextuality is technically
defined as a process of text development
that merges two more processes such as
imitation and creation in doing a text. It
involves imitation because the author as
highly influenced by another author
comes up with his own version of the text
consciously or unconsciously incorporating
the style and other characteristics of the
text done by that author.
