Description: This site might be used by teachers beginning to use semantic networking. It is not brimming with ideas on how to use semantic nets but rather is a collection of how to represent different ideas using a semantic net. That is something that could prove very useful unless you want to do your own learning at the same time your students are doing theirs.
