            Abstract : 
Computer supported tutorial systems are generally viewed as hyper documents in that author´s didactic components are implicitly embedded in some form of tutorial knowledge representation or explicitly designed in a program for students-system feedback loop. SCOOL is an interactive persistent knowledge representation language designed for hyper document systems. In SCOOL, course materials are content-orientedly presented to students to increase their learning performance.
