What is hypermedia and multimedia? What are the differences and similarities between the two? What are some examples of each of these tools and programs? Give one example of how you could use each in a classroom? What is Web 2.0 and what are some Web 2.0 authoring tools? Feel free to use the net to help find your answers. I feel that this chapter is very relevant so please read it and be comfortable with it.

1. Hypermedia refers to "linked media" or "interactive media." Hypermedia is an extension to hypertext that supports linking graphics, sound, and video elements in addition to text elements. The World Wide Web is a partial hypermedia system since is supports graphical hyperlinks and links to sound and video files. New hypermedia systems under development will allow objects in computer videos to be hyperlinked.

Multimedia means "multiple media" or a "combination of media." The use of computers to present text, graphics, video, animation, and sound in an integrated way. Long touted as the future revolution in computing, multimedia applications were, until the mid-90s, uncommon due to the expensive hardware required.

2. For the Hypermedia you could use a powerpoint and put links in it for the students to choose the right answer. For Mulitmedia you could just put in a dvd.


3. Web 2.0 is commonly associated with web applications that facilitate interactive information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design, and collaboration on the World Wide Web. A Web 2.0 site gives its users the free choice to interact or collaborate with each other in a social media dialogue as creators (prosumer) of user-generated content in a virtual community, in contrast to websites where users (consumer) are limited to the passive viewing of content that was created for them.




4. Authorizing tools of Web 2.0 include social-networking sites, blogs, wikis, video-sharing sites, hosted services, web applications, mashups and folksonomies.
