The Use and Helpfulness of Components in a First Generation Multimedia System: A Study of Individual Differences.

Burt, G.

Canadian Journal of Educational Communication, v25 n1 p37-51 Spr 1996

To determine effects of institutional control on component use and need for meeting individual differences in course design, a survey of students at British Open University analyzed the use and helpfulness of 15 multimedia components. Concludes that controls may force students to use less helpful components and that a wide range of components should be provided. (PEN)
