Abstract

Implementation of novel learning scenarios frequently implies the adoption of new interaction paradigms provided by new media. Changes on media bring several issues to educational metaphors, such as deciding which characteristics should be maintained, removed and improved. This paper discusses these issues by means of a case study comparing evolving scenarios for the annotation metaphor: from paper-based to hypertext and virtual reality.
