I wrote the hypertext essay on neurotransmitters , keeping in mind that just about anybody can read it. My audience was just about anyone who was interested in the topic of how the drugs such as Adderall can effect peoples brains. The topic has lately been one on the minds of students and educators. I think students might be the most interested in my essay because it pertains to the students who have or thought about using the drug. It is very easy to get in the college community and many have turned to it before a big test or paper. It shows the side effects, what happens to the brain, and how it can quite possibly be considered cheating. Many students don't realize the chances they are taking when they decide to take the drug. I think that the design of this hypertext essay was suitable for the audience because they can easily click on the hyperlinks that they were most interested in. If I had more time I think that I would have done more research on the studies done on how the brain reacts with the people with and without ADD. I would have also liked to have more on the placebo effect and if it is in effect here. I would have also liked to improved the layout and I would make the title more interesting if I had the technical knowledge. I would want people to be attracted to my hypertext right away to make it more appealing. My goal was to create a hypertext that was easy to read and informative on my subject. I would like to accomplish good, informative information this semester and I believe that my first hypertext essay is just a glimpse of the things that I would like to do.
