This paper proposes to use the VRML technology to save and display visual schemes of Topic Maps representing the structures of educational subjects. As learning purposes always require the careful selection of the most pertinent concepts from the total scientific knowledge, the rendering of Topic Maps for educational scope need not be too large. Special software has been developed to convert the original TM files into corresponding VRML 3D scenes. Processing of several computer science courses has already produced satisfactory images, and work to improve the visualization will continue.
