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.”

Hillinger, Michael (1990): Responsive Text: A Training Environment for Literacy and Job Skills. In: D., Woods, and E., Roth, (eds.) Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 34th Annual Meeting 1990, Santa Monica, USA. pp. 1422-1425.

“Industrial training manuals must often convey sophisticated information to an audience with less than proficient literacy. This paper presents an overview of a hypertext-based system that can compensate for reader deficiencies, serving as an instructional tool for basic literacy skills, as well as means to making job-related information available to training populations with below average reading ability.”
