  • Abstract
    This paper analyzes the behavior of students in an educational hypermedia system, with the goal of identifying correlations between patterns of behavior and studentspsila learning style. Data from an exploratory study are presented and discussed: 22 students interact with an educational hypermedia system called WELSA, having all their actions monitored and logged by the system. Behavioral patterns are subsequently determined based on these actions and a subset of them are graphically sketched in this note.
