How does the transfer of information from a book differ from the transfer of information from a television program?
What will be an ideal response?
With a television, the television program is in control. The presentation proceeds at a predetermined pace with no interaction with the viewer. With a book, one can set one’s own pace. The voice can give lines different emotions. The illustrations can be studied, discussed, and touched. Anything in the book can be reread, lingered over, or returned to. In this way the information transfer can be more effective than with television programs where the information is gone when the program is over.
