Abstract

Ergonomics for hypermedia courseware, and more generally for all computer assisted systems, must be considered at two levels:

  1. 1.

    a deep level which is global and deals with the architecture and the functionality of the interface between a computer system and a human user;

  2. 2.

    a superficial level, more technical, which is concerned with practical aspects.
