Directly relevant to the talk I gave today (but not read until after I gave it, which figures) this article traces the evolution of scientific papers from dense texts to sequential illustrations (like this vivid reinterpretation of Watts and Strogatz's seminal Nature paper on network theory ) to interactive Jupyter notebooks. Of course, we could trace the same path in learning resources, as we transition from flat text to visual displays to interactive applications.
