Perplexed?
Is anyone else thinking that Lexia to Perplexia is completely useless? I sure am. I've clicked around on that site for a while and still don't see any usefulness to it. I hate to say it, but I think that the creator wasted his time. Seriously, what benefit does it give anyone? Even if I wanted to read all the text/writing on the site I couldn't. Most of the time the words are obscured by other images or being overlapped by other words from different columns. I don't know, this is just my opinion. Just to be safe though, no more perplexing by lexia for me...

I think the meta-answer is that it has served its purpose by getting you to evaluate its usefulness. Whether you buy that or not is up to you. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, this is definitely the general consensus of the class I think. Maybe the benefit of the site is that the user can't control it, maybe it is controlling us... Either way, I am done with it too.
ReplyDeleteI am so done with it too! After playing around with it at first it was amusing but soon later i felt like it was just giving me a headache with everything that was going on.
ReplyDeleteI mentioned on "Izzy's Blog" that I think that the author was trying to reveal something about ourselves. However, I think that sometimes these authors lose sight of the larger point and become to wrapped up in the artistry of their project. A case in point is the (original) graphic novel version of "Watchmen." The story in and of itself is already complex and interesting, but there is a side story (that thankfully was not included in the movie) which does not affect the plot but runs parallel to it. There may have been all sorts of literary value to this, but it strikes me as a bit of an indulgence on the author's part.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I tried to follow it along and make sense of it, but I just couldn't. I did not understand it either.
