Abstract
This paper describes a hypermedia based learning environment called HMLE for authoring courses in mathematics. HMLE enables the author to use mathematical text with formulas, mathematical tool programs, concept maps, interactive exercises and digitized videos. In the paper HMLE is compared with a number of other hypermedia environments and the differences between these environments are shown. The HMLE tools are being used to create a pilot hypermedia based course on matrix algebra at Tampere University of Technology (TUT).
