“…To develop that ontology, we used the Simple Knowledge-Engineering Methodology (Ontology 101) (Noy & McGuinness, 2004), which consists of an iterative approach to ontology development, starting with a rough sketch of the ontology and then revising and refining it, filling in the details. We opted for this methodology because it is an agile method, widely accepted by the academic community (Gobin, 2014;.…”

Gamification studies in the educational domain usually focus on motivating students to increase their learning performance by enhancing their motivation. Classifications of behavioural profiles are often used for this (referred to as “gamer” or “user types”), which support the personalization of students’ experiences. These classifications consider these profiles from gamers’ or non-gamers’ points of view. However, within education research, it is necessary to broadly inspect these behavioural profiles to create an instructional design based on learners’ intrinsic drivers and motivations. The relationship between these concepts is subjective, complex, and difficult to categorize, demanding research to bridge this gap. Therefore, in this article we present the design and evaluation of an application ontology that seeks to represent relationships between Jung’s archetypes (e.g., the Hero, the Outlaw and others) adapted for educational purposes, creating a new approach for modelling user profiles, a taxonomy of game elements specific for use in educational contexts, and Bloom’s revised taxonomy to classify learning activities types. This ontology enables personalized and instructional designs directly related to the learning activity type for students. We demonstrate that the proposed ontology can help create better gamification designs to support learning, and we envision it to be used both to create unplugged gamification strategies and personalized gamified educational systems.

“…On the other hand, the ontology for requirements allows giving an intelligence support guide of the techniques to be used and an evaluation of the quality metrics of the traceability requirements. In essence, for [14,36] the ontologies developed in the DSA, are used as a medium to identify the changes between external clients and the SD equipment; allow permission to improve fundamental communication in the organization and the capacity to meet the requirements Meanwhile, the [1,21,34,37] risk management is focused and these were classified by levels. In this context, according to [17] the IEEE 1074 standard provides that the types of risks involved in organizations can be processed or activities, where each process derives an activity in the development of the Software.…”

Nowadays, the application of methodologies that allow to guide the process of development of Software in the companies has become a fundamental aspect to achieve the suitable management of the processes in the projects. In view of the diversity of existing methodologies, there is a growing interest in defining strategies that allow the selection and application of the correct methodology, which adjusts to the characteristics of the work teams and the software projects. The aim of this work is to develop an ontology for the selection of the methodology that, according to its principles, is most appropriate and beneficial for the development of software projects. The domain of ontology is limited to the Agile and Lean approaches, without defining for Agile the specific method that it applies, but it involves any method that is governed by the agile values and principles established in the Agile manifesto. Onto-logy is applied in two organizations in the banking sector, allowing recommendations to be inferred for the use of Agile methodology in both, which will make it possible to reduce the delivery time of software products, improve communication between project participants, and facilitate the engineering of requirements. On the other hand, the ontology suggests co-regulating characteristic aspects of the Lean practices in order to minimize costs, optimize processes in the software projects and improve the organizational culture.
