Discusses methods for incorporating video into hypermedia programs. Knowledge representation in hypermedia is explained; video production techniques are discussed; comparisons between linear video, interactive video, and hypervideo are presented; appropriate conditions for hypervideo use are examined; and a need for new media research is…

Assesses the effects of on-line advice messages that suggest learning strategies to the user. Results support the proposition that the design of learner-controlled interactive video materials for language teaching may be potentially helpful to students who do not come to a database environment equipped with effective language-learning strategies.…

Describes examples of two computer technologies that have the potential to enhance and contribute to developmental learning: the adoption of computer-mediated communication systems in a part-time master's degree program at Lancaster University (United Kingdom) and a computer-based learning environment for personal growth that uses interactive…

Defining metacognition as the set of skills and strategies one uses in monitoring and modifying how one learns, this paper addresses ways in which interactive hypermedia/multimedia instructional programs might enhance the meta-cognitive abilities of the learners who use them. It begins by identifying key issues and approaches to metacognition,…

This paper examines prior research on learner control in an effort to apply the findings to the design of interactive video systems. Early research on learner control is detailed, including descriptions of research supporting learner control or having mixed reactions to learner control. Alternatives to learner control are also discussed, including…

Outlines fundamental capabilities of rule-based expert systems and examines their potential for improving computer-based tutoring. Topics discussed include subject matter knowledge; instructional strategies; rule-based representation of knowledge; decision making; problem solving; authoring languages; cognitive processes; possibilities for using…

This paper builds a case for the use of multimedia to meet students' varied learning needs instead of relying solely on the traditional lecture/textbook/workbook approach. Piaget's theory of intellectual development is used as background for a discussion of developing teaching strategies based on individual learning styles, and various theories of…

Discussion of research that evaluates the effectiveness of interactive video used for training in the United States and in the United Kingdom highlights a program developed for the Ford Motor Company. Topics discussed include content-treatment interaction; learning strategies; intermode differences; research criteria; pretest and posttest results;…

Evaluates relevance of existing instructional research on computer-assisted instruction, programed instruction, instructional video, and instructional television to the study of interactive video; describes several assumptions about interactive video use which require validation and study; and proposes a propositional framework to guide the…

Maintains that the use of metacognitive learning strategies have been recurrent pedagogical tools for facilitating foreign language learning. Describes how new hypermedia and interactive video technology have broadened the scope of computer-assisted instruction. Calls for more research on this topic. (CFR)

This article uses a cognitive problem-solving model to explore the application of hypermedia authoring software to mathematics in general and to mathematical problem solving in particular. Hypermedia is presented as a method of exploring alternative solution processes to remediate or prevent learning problems. (JDD)

Reviews learner strategy research, strategy instruction, and on-line help in multimedia instructional materials, and reports on a study investigating 20 native Chinese-speaking English language learners' use of computer resource facilities (e.g., scripts, glossaries, background information) in an interactive videodisc program and their reactions…
