Abstract

Examines constructivism as an epistemological basis for the design and use of hypermedia systems in order to synergize the constructivist view of learning and the potentialities of hypermedia. Proposes a new conceptual framework for constructive hypermedia learning systems based on cognitive, semiotic, and social perspectives. (Contains 151 references.) (Author/LRW)
