HyperStudio


HyperStudio is a program filled to the brim with things to do. With it you can create everything from games, complete with questions answers sounds and scoring, to animated stories or documents with video. It has a simple-to-understand guide named Addy. She will help you along the way as you explore HyperStudio. It was easy to install and easy to get started.

I think that HyperStudio is a very useful thing to have around! With HyperStudio you can make games, reports, newsletters, homepages, and so much more when you let your imagination fly. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being the highest), I think that HyperStudio is a 9, for being easy to use. Once you read the step by step instructions and get the hang of it, it's a breeze. I personally made a very cool game on HyperStudio with the button maker and the wonderful selections of icons. I think that everyone should have HyperStudio because it is such a great source of fun!
