Linear and Non-Linear

Linear texts must be read sequentially from beginning to end as designed by the author. Examples include novels, poems, and news articles. Non-linear texts do not need to be read sequentially and allow the reader to choose multiple reading paths. Examples are flow charts and concept maps. Textual aids are visual elements that provide support and facilitate understanding. They include graphical outlines and images that give a general overview of a topic to help comprehension. Common textual aids are cause and effect diagrams, flow diagrams, Venn diagrams, graphic organizers, concept maps, graphs, circle/pie graphs, line graphs, and pictographs.
