From the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s podcast program, this learn node begins with a link to an RSS distributed podcast of a classic fable recorded for a family audience. The story on the podcast is The Lion and the Mouse, which can also be found in the Aesop’s Fables collection at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. The Amherst collection has been built by students since 1994 and now includes some of the famed fables told with animations and interactivity. The Prelinger Archives offers a 1947 state-of-the-then art version (a frame captured above) of Aesop’s fable of The Hare and the Tortoise.

The top little circles illustrate links out to content nodes related to the subject of the large circle. Bottom left, experts connect to the node affirming its quality - giving it juice. Bottom right, a student connects to the node to learn the subject of its content. Blog posts are used to make learn nodes on this website. Click here for a primer on using a blog post to make a learn node. Any webpage with its own url can be used as a learn node.
