Utilizing HyperStudio
HyperStudio is a multimedia educational program that enables both teachers and students to create interactive presentations. Similar to MS PowerPoint, HyperStudio allows the user to create detailed and vivid reports and projects in addition to presentations. For teachers, this program would best be used to create a quiz or small test that students would be able to access from a computer in class or even over the Internet. Additionally, they could make a tutorial program for students where they can control what they learn next as well as the pace of learning. Students can use HyperStudio to create presentations that allow other students and teachers can interact with it. However, going through all the pages and creating all the graphics can be a time-consuming project.
