Using Distributed Hypermedia for Collaborative Learning in Universities
David B. Skillicorn · The Computer Journal · 1996
Hypermedia technology provides both an opportunity for universities to provide a better learning experience for their students, and a way to cope with funding reductions. Second-generation hypermedia systems makes it cost-effective to develop and deliver multimedia courseware, while permitting learning to occur within a community. We illustrate by describing our experiences developing and offering a hypermedia course in computer architecture, in which lectures were replaced by on-line courseware, using the Hyper-G system.
