Teaching methods seem to work with some students and fail with others, because every learner is unique. Teachers must be able to identify learning styles and find ways for instruction to match those styles. This paper moves from an overview of different learning styles to a review of the use of computer-assisted instruction. A recent development in technology, known as hypermedia, is described as a tool for faculty training and managing curricula. Hypermedia is an expansion of the hypertext concept that allows for the inclusion of media links as well as data links. Information in various types of electronic media can be accessed by activating the link. The user can explore information in a direction and speed suited to his or her learning style, as well as through the sensory stimuli that best enhances learning. The HyperCard software package provides tools to permit the educator-author the freedom and flexibility to address the needs of any learner. While development efforts may require more time when using technology to provide alternative learning paths, only minor revisions should be needed once the original work is done.
