A reading note

A reading aid can organize a page without telling you what conclusion to draw. Headings, filters, and grouped links help locate material; their arrangement does not explain why a particular conclusion would follow. Use the aid to reach a passage, then examine the argument in that passage on its own terms. If a category seems to answer your question immediately, ask what extra meaning you have given it. Keeping navigation separate from judgment lets a convenient layout remain helpful without allowing the layout to become an unstated rule for deciding what to believe.

Questions to carry forward

  • Is this feature helping me locate material or supplying a reason for a conclusion?
  • What extra meaning might I be attaching to the way the page is arranged?
  • Which passage contains the argument I need to examine after using the reading aid?
