 * Affordance of More Precise Communication**

Affordance is defined as a quality of an object, or an environment, which allows an individual to perform an action.

Affordance of more precise communication has went through many stages as civilization had advanced. Basically what this term means is the level of communication and the advancement of communication that we use to interact with one another.



The first form of communication was simply talking. After this we started documenting communication by writing it down in documents so that we could later view what we heard. Books were produced to communicate along with this idea. Phones, radio, and recordings were introduced as well. Hypertext and hypermedia were the next steps in communication.

There will be even more advancements in communication as time goes on. It may be that get something like computer chips that can be implanted into our brains or some other crazy idea that seems impossible right now. media type="youtube" key="WfCUxeQ2VSE" height="315" width="420" Sources: [] [] []
