Abstract |
Nowadays it has become a necessity to provide mechanisms that store, manage and
discover resources in an efficient way. The obvious premise is to create the appropriate
metadata schemata for the complete utilization of this content. In the case of educational
resources, a metadata schema used to describe their attributes, should also be able to
capture their educational and pedagogical aspects. Therefore, apart from various
conventional attributes such as author, title or type – elements that are common in all
metadata schemata - an educational metadata schema should also include information
regarding the resource’s particular learning characteristics.
Furthermore, emerging applications of Semantic Web raise demands for semantic
structuring of metadata descriptions. Ontological enrichment of metadata schemata would
provide added value from existing learning objects by facilitating further their conceptual
searching and harvesting. A lot of recent research on metadata structuring, include
ontological approaches and propose new schemata to support enhanced E-learning
applications.
What we lack in Greece though, is a semantic application profile for the proper
characterization of educational material, and especially for learning objects that are
designed to serve the scope of primary and secondary education courses. Existing
application profiles, as described in literature, are not adequate enough to express all
aspects of primary and secondary education and the necessity for new application profiles
arises.
The purpose of this thesis is to set the initiative of making a complete web-based
semantic repository of all courses in Greek primary and secondary education by examining
other similar educational web services, designing a new ontology and implementing it into
existing standards and technologies. The implementation of ICT courses will provide the
philosophy and the tools needed for future adaptation and extensibility of this model. This
will also give the ability to expand this infrastructure for all courses of primary and
secondary education in Greece.
