Exploring Hypertext in E-Learning: Concepts and Applications

This presentation from the 2003 MicroCad Conference by Fekete Zsombor delves into hypertext—electronic documents equipped with navigational elements, facilitating non-linear exploration of content. Key distinctions between traditional and hypertext documents are outlined, highlighting the importance of dynamic formats like HTML and DHTML. The uses of hypertext in e-learning are examined, addressing content types, user navigation, and presentation strategies. Practical insights on integrating hypertext into educational materials promote enhanced learner engagement and understanding.

  2. Definition of hypertext • Hypertext is the name of those electronic documents that contain special controlling elements of navigation within the actual document, or reaching external contents directly.

  3. Three important differences between the “traditional” and “hypertext” documents • Not necessary linear • Not necessary homogeny • Not necessary printable

  4. Hypertext formats • HTML – used in Web-pages • DHTML, PHP, Flash, etc. • Newer office documents • Hypermedia

  5. Links • Parts of the links • logical • physical • Links format • Text • Button • Picture • Map • Control element Logical link <a href="physical_link.htm">Logical link</a> Text

  6. Linked Content • Link type • Local link • Internal link • External link • Content display • In browser • In frame • Pop-up • Mouse-over, tool-tip

  7. Functions of the links • Reference • External reference – Footmarks, literature, etc. • Internal reference – Cross-links

  8. Functions of the links • Understanding • Illustration (pictures, audio, etc.) • Collections (Vocabulary, Picture-collection, etc.)

  9. Functions of the links • Navigation • Paging (implicit and explicit sequential links) • External functions (communication, tests, etc.)

  10. Functions of the links • Non-linear structures • Alternative contents • Alternative exploration ways • Side-by-side information

  11. How to use hypertext in e-learning? • Question of linearity • What is the content? • What kind of knowledge do we want to share? • How do we want to share? • What experiences do the learners have?

  12. How to use hypertext in e-learning? • Question of additional content • How many links? • How to sign the links? • What kind of additional content?

  13. How to use hypertext in e-learning? • Question of presentation • E-book • Presentation • Multimedia learning material • Web • E-learning systems • E-blackboard • Etc.
