Greene, Jeffrey Alan; Azevedo, Roger – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2007
This study examined 148 adolescents' use of self-regulated learning (SRL) processes when learning about the circulatory system using hypermedia. We examined participants' verbal protocols to determine the relationship between SRL processes and qualitative shifts in students' mental models from pretest to posttest. Results indicated that…

Astleitner, Hermann; Leutner, Detlev – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1996
Describes how the structure of hypermedia systems can be represented by a simple matrix which is the basis for applying standard techniques of network analysis, and demonstrates the potential influence of these techniques on learning processes or outcomes. Also discusses theoretical and practical implications for future hypermedia research. (AEF)
