  abstract =     "We describe the design and evaluation of a
                 hypertext-based tutorial for hypertext authors. This
                 85-article tutorial represents an innovative
                 application of hypertext to procedural learning. The
                 work has been influenced by Carroll's minimalist model,
                 and by the syntactic/semantic semantic model of user
                 behavior. The usability study involved eight subjects
                 who studied the Hyperties Author Tutorial (HAT) for
                 approximately one hour and then performed a set of
                 authoring tasks in an average of 21 minutes. All users
                 successfully completed the tasks. As a result of the
                 study, we provide a characterization of appropriate
                 uses of hypertext for training, and describe the
                 meaning of a hyper-active environment.",
