LESSON 15: UNDERSTANDING HYPERMEDIA

      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.

DISCUSSION:

1.      Hypermedia provides autonomous learning. How is this better than the traditional classroom learning, which often fails to consider the case of slow and poor individual learners?

Ø  Hypermedia is better than the traditional classroom learning if the teacher know this hypermedia and how to use it in the proper way and why we need to understand this hypermedia as a learning and teaching tools, so that the learner also develop their ability in creating hypermedia.

2.      How can the teacher help slow and poor learners using the traditional teaching methods?

Ø  Teacher should also create there instructional material for more clarification in the discussion and they should have objective before they start the class discussion so that they will know if they reach their goal using the traditional teaching methods.

3.      Hypermedia provides an atmosphere of search, exploration and discovery. How can the teacher provide such an environment in the traditional classroom?

Ø  First, the teacher should know how to explore with themselves so that they will develop their self-confidence to teach the learner about this hypermedia and let your student explore and search about the activity you gave to them in the traditional classroom.
