Hillinger, Michael and Leu, Donald J. (1994): Guiding Instruction in Hypermedia. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 38th Annual Meeting 1994. pp. 266-270.

“While hypermedia can provide flexible and rapid access to information in multiple mediums its navigation can be daunting to an unfamiliar user. This paper describes a prototype hypermedia system for training the components of a turbine engine. Designed as a content-rich hypermedia substrate combined with an independent guide, the system provides the novice with structure without impeding exploration. Results of a comparative study indicate that users unfamiliar with the topic learn more when the guide is available while users already comfortable with turbine concepts learn targeted information better without the guide.”
