Composition  and Modern English Grammar		Daniel Kies Department of English College of DuPage Contact Form By the early 1990s, I began presenting those classroom materials on the web. Today, I remain fascinated by the link between the medium of instruction (writing, via the internet) and the object of instruction (increasing one's facility with language and writing). Unlike some who argue that hypertext may destroy literacy, I am inclined to see hypertext as an evolutionary, rather than revolutionary, move toward literacy.

	A Brief History
	These websites began in my filing cabinet. After twenty years of teaching composition and English language studies, I had amassed a collection of handouts, exercises, notes, conference papers, and publications that became the core of these textbooks in hypertext, the HyperTextBooks. In the early 1980s, I began to use and think of computers as writing tools, helping to establish the first computer aided composition classroom at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee.
