- Using a Metro Map Metaphor for Organizing Web-Based Learning Resources. Bang, Tove Gronbaek, Kaj Hansen, Per Steen Business Education Computer Oriented Programs Educational Resources Foreign Countries Higher Education Information Sources Instructional Materials Learning Resources Centers Maps Metaphors Shared Resources and Services World Wide Web This paper briefly describes the WebNize system and how it applies a Metro Map metaphor for organizing guided tours in Web based resources. Then, experiences in using the Metro Map based tours in a Knowledge Sharing project at the library at Aarhus School of Business (ASB) in Denmark, are discussed. The Library has been involved in establishing a Learning Resource Center (LRC). The LRC serves as an exploratorium for the development and the testing of new forms of communication and learning, at the same time as it integrates the information resources of the electronic research library. The objective is to create models for Intelligent Knowledge Solutions that can contribute to form the learning environments of the School in the 21st century. The WebNize system is used for sharing of knowledge through metro maps for specific subject areas made available in the Learning Resource Centre at ASB. The metro maps now serve as the entrance to learning resources for several hundred students. (Contains 14 references and 5 figures.) (Author)
