Hyperstudio is a multimedia authoring program for Macintosh and Windows based computers. The program allows users to create very simple to quite complex programs using drawing/painting tools, text editing, animation, speech and sound recording. For computers with Quicktime (video facilities) and laser disc control video and photo clips may be inserted. Instructions are clear and simple, making the program easy to use. It is possible to design educational, therapeutic and recreational programs to suit a wide range of children and adults with special needs.

General Details

Extra product information

HyperStudio allows for a range of access methods, including the keyboard, single or multiple switches, enlarged keyboards and TouchWindow. It is an excellent tool with the TouchWindow as the window only needs to be touched for something exciting to happen.
Designed originally for use on the Apple computer, HyperStudio is now used mainly on Macintosh and on Windows based computers. A version is currently being developed for Archimedes computers.
