Conceptual and Methodological Shortcomings in Hypertext/Hypermedia Design and Research

The article discusses in detail conceptual and methodological aspects of research. It is suggested that because of inherent shortcomings in design and research the potential of hypertext/hypermedia for enhancing learning may have been underestimated. The expectation is that if existing theoretical, conceptual, and methodological shortcomings will be overcome one may expect new impulses which will be fruitful both for theory development, research, and the design of effective learning environments.
