Learning object-oriented concepts with multimedia technology

We present in this paper the outstanding features of a multimedia environment for learning object technology. This system presents certain novel aspects such as the extensive use of object animation and hypermedia patterns to describe object-oriented design concepts, in particular object frameworks. This environment complements other teaching and learning activities, and provides a good way of overcoming some of the difficulties that arise on the learning process of the object paradigm, such as the hard philosophical change that it implies and the assimilation of new technical concepts.
