LINEAR AND NON LINEAR TEXTS The difference between a linear text and nonlinear text is the reading path. A linear text is a traditional text that needs to be read from beginning to end to make sense of the text. Examples of linear texts are short stories, novels, letters, and educational texts. A nonlinear text , on the other hand, is not required to be read from beginning to end since its reading path is non-sequential . In assisting the readers, visual aids such as graphic organizers, concept maps, diagrams, and charts are used .
