Acquiring Structural Knowledge from Semantically Structured Hypertext.

Jonassen, David H.; Wang, Sherwood

Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, v20 n1 p1-8 Win 1993

Discussion of hypertext structures focuses on three studies of preservice teachers that assessed the effects of different methods of explicitly mapping expert knowledge structures onto hypertext on the acquisition of structural knowledge. Topics addressed include time on task, semantic networking, cognitive limitations of browsing behavior, and hypertext literacy. (23 references) (LRW)
