Learners in hypermedia-based course, providing non-linear structures and multimedia content, always feel uneasy to identify the next step to go. The study was conducted by vocational high school students of Kaohsiung city in the semi-conductor content. Three models of navigation, such as regular hyperlink, hierarchy, and menu-like navigation, are designed to probe the degree of learning disorientation in terms of information-seeking time and questionnaire. In the methodology, three stages, literature review, the identification of dependent and independent variables, and an experiment, have been processed. This study revealed findings that the hierarchical navigation as course map for students has significant effect than other two models in terms of information-seeking items. The implications of this study provide insight for hypermedia-based course designers. Finally, the suggestions for future research are also included.
