Abstract :
The combination of hypertext and simulation techniques is considered for the learning environment. It consists of the simulation of a biological process as a knowledge unit of a hypertext-the simulation node. Such a hypertext is to be used in biomedical courses. The modeling approach uses circuit theory to create the mathematical model of the biological phenomenon to be simulated
