The Effect of Hypermedia Assisted Instruction on Second Language Learning

Literature on hypermedia has been growing. Although its potentials and educational implications are being explored, not much empirical research has been done to substantiate its rich theoretical assumptions and verify its promises. The purpose of this study was to provide some results on the practical application of the technology. It intended to investigate the effect of hypermedia technology on enhancing vocabulary learning among non-native English speakers.
