In recent times the term Hyperdoc has really caught my attention. It makes sense to create digital lesson plans that are multilayered for digital lessons presented in the 21st Century - and Hyperdocs do just that. They contain multilayered learning experiences.
What are the main features of a Hyperdoc
A Hyperdoc is basically a lesson presented in a Google document o one kind or another, that adds innovative elements such as instructions, links, graphic organisers and tools required by the learner in order to complete a task. It can be used in class with a balanced flow of teacher led/student led instruction OR it can be used in a a flipped classroom environment.
- It is easy to use individually, in pairs or in groups. It aims to include the 4Cs:
Collaboration
Critical Thinking
Communication
Creativity. - It gets learners thinking by focusing on ways for them to apply their knowledge.
- It contains multimedia text sets rather than lectures.
A multimedia text set is a collection of lessons, various texts, and resources based around a topic or theme. It can build background knowledge and shift pedagogy to an exploration of content rather than lecture. The different options of the lesson can be selected from a table.
How could we summarise a Hyperdoc?

But first, before we look depper into Hyperdocs, let's discoover something about their history.
Who started the idea of Hyperdocs? We'll find out more about this in our next post: Hyperdocs #3: How did Hyperdocs start?
