Background works

My project:Design of the Semantic Web driven electronic practice book for Smalltalk Squeak

In MIEM before me:Ontology based electronic practice book for Smalltalk-80 && Prolog for internal usage

My graduate paper topic first thought:Semantic Web driven e-learing system for object-oriented paradigm

Possible two directions

1. To build SW-based plugin for Moodle to help moodle-folks semi-automatic navigate & control their course storagies

2. To create my own domain ontology for OOP linked with my system of practical tasks which reveal the issues of an OO paradigm good enough 2

ISW-based plugin for Moodle

for semi-automatic navigate & control their course storagies

The problem

1. Moodle is one of the most popular LMS in Russia

2. People may use it (it’s a proved fact) to store over 100 different courses

3. Moodle has a lack tools to effectively control such groups of this courses

4. The most part of the educational content created by the teachers and students

5. No SCORM, only internal moodle format4

Moodle internal data

•Taxonomy•Lecture•Quiz

Summary about this Moodle extention

• It requested by several educational institutions

• The problem is specific & local• Some possibilities to write an guide and get

more markuped educational content to work with (something that already created but not shared)

IImy own domain ontology for

OOP && some system of practical tasks

Yet another OOP educational content?

Near 75 nodes for now

Summary about this educational ontology

1. New good stuff for the LOD and other SW-based educational projects

2. Reusable set of domain specific practical tasks3. Competency-based approach (main stream for

The Ministry of Education and sciense of Russia)4. Possibility for trying some adaptive approaches

(Bloom taxonomy, Felder-Silverman learning styles)

Summary

• This two different directions or this research with a little hope to be joined in the future

• Some designs of domain ontology• Definition of some specific but important

problem for our russian e-learning
