A student visiting NASA’s well-designed and popular children’s informational website called “StarChild: A Learning Center for Young Astronomers” is introduced to a different set of interactive features not available in conventional print. Most notable are the hyperlinks embedded within short passages about the solar system that encourage readers to navigate their own paths through the information in a nonlinear way that may be different than the path of other readers or the intended path of the author.

A. follows the path of the author and the reader may not appreciate that B. makes it too difficult to learn effectively online C. stops people from fully understanding the material presented online D. encourages readers to follow their own path through web content
