Abstract :
This document collates evidence for desirable human computer interface properties, and educational features, for LEVERAGE. This includes principles of interface design and user ratings of features in distributed learning systems. The evidence comes from three sources: the HIPERNET user trials, other recent distributed multimedia training systems, and previously stated principles of human computer interaction that have general relevance.
