This document discusses the need for "layered stories" in online journalism to better accommodate how users read on the web. It notes users typically scan pages rather than read fully. A study tested layered stories, where text is divided into sections with headings, against "shovel-ware" articles directly transferred from print. Results found layered stories were better organized, easier to understand, faster to read, and less fatiguing for users. The document argues layered stories can help online journalism better utilize the internet by presenting information in a scannable, easy to access way.
User Study of the SADIe Transcoding EngineDarren Lunn
The World Wide Web (Web) is a visually complex, dynamic, multimedia system that can be inaccessible to people with visual impairments. SADIe addresses this problem by using Semantic Web technologies to explicate implicit visual structures through a combination of an upper and lower ontology. This is then used to apply transcoding to a range of Websites. This paper describes a user evaluation that was performed using the SADIe system. Four users were presented with a series of Web pages, some having been adapted using SADIe's transcoding functionality and others retaining in their original state. The results of the evaluation showed that providing answers to a fact based question could be achieved more quickly when the information on the page was exposed via SADIe's transcoding. The data obtained during the experiment was analysed and shown to be statistically significant. This suggests that the transcoding techniques offered by SADIe can assist visually impaired users accessing content on the Web.

Information Organisation for the Future Web: with Emphasis to Local CIRs inventionjournals
Semantic Web is evolving as meaningful extension of present web using ontology. Ontology can play an important role in structuring the content in the current web to lead this as new generation web. Domain information can be organized using ontology to help machine to interact with the data for the retrieval of exact information quickly. Present paper tries to organize community information resources covering the area of local information need and evaluate the system using SPARQL from the developed ontology.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

1. More Than Shovel-ware
A Call for Layered Stories for Online
Journalism
Yanjun Zhao,
Ph.D.
Cameron
University
2. How users read on the
web?
They don’t.
Instead of reading, they scan
pages.
Reading something from a screen is
more tiring to the eyes than reading
the same information from a
hardcopy.
3. Web usability
Visual design of pages and the logical
presentation of information
Makes it easy for the user to find the desired
info quickly and efficiently
This paper addresses the story page design in
online journalism
4. The focus of this study:
Text information design
Visual design of online news text
Not the multimedia add on
This study studies the presentation of text
body of online news articles
the limits of shovel ware
The potential of benefits of layered stories
5. Literature review
Current status: shovel ware
Transferring content from newspaper to the
webpage with little or no revision.
This approaches assumes that people would read
an article online the same way as they would read
a print version
6. Wrong assumption
The assumption under shovelware ignored some
crucial features of people’s online reading style.
Scan v. read
Less patient reading long text from screen
Resolution
72 ppi on screen
300 ppi in print
7. Online Journalism’s capacity
Necessary to present the info in a
“scanable” way.
When info presented well, users
could have easy and fast access to
additional info.
8. Layering
Dividing text-based stories into several
sections, and each section has a section
heading, which represent the whole section
Advantage: structure
Layering is like a map
Provide a quick idea about the gist of the article
9. RQ: How effective is layering?
Hypotheses: compared with shovelware, a layered story
will be rated as:
Better organized
Easier to understand
Faster to read
More visually attractive
Less fatigue
Less boring
10. Method: experiment
Three groups read the same
articles in three versions.
Shovelware group
Layer group
Hard copy group (Control group)
15. Discussion
The Internet, as a medium, offers huge potential
for journalism.
Layering offers
Better organization of info
Less time to read
Visual attractiveness
Less fatigue
Less boring reading experience
16. Discussion
Online journalism is still in its infancy.
It is important for online journalists to understand
the visual principles that underlie online writing,
even though these principles don’t jump into our
eyes.
The layering approach, with its clean and efficient
design, has strong potential to change the
landscape of online journalism.
