How will hypermedia help teachers and students?

Hypermedia will help in a way of graphics, audio, video, plain text and different hyperlinks intertwine to create a generally non-linear medium of information.  It will contrast with multimedia, which may be used to describe non-interactive linear presentations as well as hypermedia.  Hypermedia can  be developed in a number of ways by using it as a programing tool. It can be used to write programs that link data from internal variables and nodes for external data files. The teachers who used the program can produce recordings that also provide skills and practice for pronunciation of foreign lanquage. Audio recordings can be used for presenting book reports. This can be used as different forms of hypermedia.
