Visual Thinking, Online Documentation, and Hypertext: A Special Issue of Technical Communication Quarterly

by John Logie (Editor)

This special issue addresses new approaches to developing Web sites, hypertext, and other forms of online documentation, and considers how the changing nature of hypertext requires us to adopt new development strategies that follow how readers act and interact in a highly visual-spatial medium. The articles included here testify to the rich range and variety of contemporary work on visual and special questions in technical communication. Contributions to this issue are provocative steps in the ongoing conversation about how to best take advantage of the options and opportunities afforded by digital media.
