Abstract

The paper discusses the emergence of multimedia systems and with it the emergence of hypermedia as a new and powerful learning medium. The effects of this new technology on computer aided learning (CAL) as well as problems associated with CAL are discussed. The paper argues that hypermedia aided learning (HAL) could remedy some of the problems associated with CAL and pave the way for a new generation of powerful learning tools to emerge. Evaluation of HAL as a learning resource is also presented. The problems associated with HAL and the prospect ahead are also discussed
