‘The challenge that educational technologists face in harnessing the power of this combination [of hypertext software with compact disc technology] is awesome’ (Megarry. 1988, 182) . Consider another quotation: in the first issue of the recently merged Association for Educational Communications and Technology journal, Charles M Reigeluth writes that ‘educational technology seems to be suffering from an identity crisis. We are ignored by many, including the new educational technologists. Why is this happening?. . . Where are we in the field now, and where should we be going?’ (Reigeluth, 1989).
