SNIK, a medical informatics ontology, combines knowledge from different literature sources dealing with the management of hospital information systems (HIS). Concepts and relations were extracted from literature, modeled as an ontology and visualized as a graph on a website. We demonstrate the potential of the graph visualization for tuitional scenarios. SNIK complements teaching and learning with conventional literature by concentrating knowledge that is scattered over different pieces of text around one node of a graph.
