Making Connections: Hypertext and Research in a Middle School Classroom.
Patterson, Nancy G.
English Journal, v89 n1 p69-73 Sep 1999
Describes how students in an 8th-grade rural English classroom were focused and engaged over a 9-week period as they investigated and researched a poem of their own choice by a Native American poet, and wrote a hypertext web of their research journey. Notes that students experienced text in a new way, as a network of links. (SR)
