[topicmapmail] Topic Map Editors

[Christopher Whitfield]

Hi Hendrik,

Perhaps you could look into how topic maps could be
used as a teaching tool for various courses taught in
college. At Winston Salem State University, one of my
fellow classmates has developed a topic map for one of
our lower level computer science courses and one of
the professors has agreed to use it to teach the
course and compare how well they do as opposed to
teaching the same course the traditional way.  Thanks
for informing me about the TMwiki editor. Hopefully I
can use this editor as part of my research.  Also, I'm
sure that "bibmap.xtm" will help me with my Literary
portion. Thanks
