Abstract

An assessment is made of the work of design from the perspective of communicability and usability in multimedia aimed at E-learning, mainly through the off-line interactive systems (commercials) and on-line (open software). The method used is accompanied by a series of heuristic results along time to stress the validity or not of some of the design components. Besides, a novel strategy of organizing the textual content is presented for teenagers and the young: the truncated inverted pyramid. Finally, those quality attributes are mentioned that are related to the dynamic and static means, at the moment of heuristically assessing the communicability of a hypermedia system which has as its main goal college education.
