An Ontological Approach to Support Personalized E-Learning System

Abstract

Learners who use educational applications need to get suitable learning material in their concerned domain. However, their level of knowledge, preferences and interests are different. The e-learning system should be able to deliver suitable learning materials based on learner's preferences and knowledge. The solution is knowledge based personalized model-driven approach. The learner-model and domain-model plays an important role for delivering personalized learning material to learner. In this paper we proposed an ontological representation of learner-model with domain and educative support preferences along with this we described various categories of information that needs to be considered while developing the domain ontology for managing e-learning material. Finally the concerned architectural overview of ontology based e-learning system is proposed.

A Survey on Semantic Web based E-learning

“…Al. [19] proposed an ontological approach to support personalized e-learning system, which presents learning material according to the learner's preference. This model is made up of two part learning repository mo and learner models, both of these parts are represented through ontologies.…”
