tion <strong>of</strong> the HEAT. It was important to determine if any additional TLSs are<br />

needed and if the existing TLSs are sufficiently designed.<br />

• Linking <strong>of</strong> TLSs<br />

The linking <strong>of</strong> the TLSs also forms the student’s navigation through the<br />

EM. One goal <strong>of</strong> the practical evaluation was to gain information about the<br />

linking efficiency and possible drawbacks.<br />

• EM-layer<br />

The practical evaluation <strong>of</strong> the HEAT should also provide some information<br />

about the usability <strong>of</strong> the designed EM-layer and the management <strong>of</strong> EMs<br />

in the HEAT.<br />

• Presentation <strong>of</strong> material<br />

The presentation <strong>of</strong> the produced material in a web browser had to be eval-<br />

uated during the practical evaluation <strong>of</strong> the HEAT.<br />

• Ease <strong>of</strong> authoring<br />

The ease <strong>of</strong> material conversion or <strong>of</strong> the creation <strong>of</strong> new educational mate-<br />

rial with the HEAT is important for this project.<br />

• Author’s expertise in the domain<br />

It had to be determined if the author’s expertise in the authored material<br />

influences the production <strong>of</strong> the educational material with the EM.<br />
