The World Wide Web is evolving from a collection of texts linked by hypertext and hypermedia toward services that operate interactively with the information user, and which offer results through use of a broad spectrum of tools. This paper presents a collection of interactive WWW services. The services are classified on the basis of the client…

Despite Korea's current emphasis on college entrance exams and formal education, the lifelong learning paradigm adhered to in the past can be re-established with the development of credit banking and multimedia technology. Due to restricted participation in higher education, a university degree has become a ticket to the social elite, with…

This paper addresses criteria in the design and development of computer-based courseware. The term "interactive multimedia" describes both the technology and the demands placed on the user. It implies that the user becomes actively engaged with the subject, thereby improving the likelihood that net learning takes place. However, nothing…
