UNDERSTANDING 
HYPERMEDIA
From the EdTech 1 course 
The student has already 
become aware of 
multimedia or an 
audiovisual package 
Includes more than 
one instructional 
media (means of 
knowing) 
Such as text, graphics, 
audio animation 
and video clip.
Hypermedia is nothing but multimedia, 
but this time packaged as an educational 
computer software where information is 
presented and student activities are integrated in 
a virtual learning environment. 
Most education IT applications are hypermedia 
and these include: 
 Tutorial software 
packages; 
Knowledge webpages; 
Stimulation instructional 
games, and 
Learning project 
management, and others.
The presentation of information-learning 
activities in hypermedia is said to be 
sequenced in a non-linear manner 
meaning that the learner may follow his 
path of activities thus providing an 
environment of learner autonomy and 
thinking skills.
