Abstract

Dynamic visualisations and hypermedia have the potential to transform how we design instruction and can lead to highly innovative and flexible learning environments. However, their continued success largely depends on the importance placed by designers on the cognitive processes crucial to the learning process. This discussion paper examines the findings of six papers which increase our knowledge of how we can use dynamic visualisations and hypermedia to generate powerful learning solutions.
