“…Mariela et al [7] oppose classic documents -written in a human-readable format‖ without automatic processing and guidance to -intelligent services [with decision-making] to support teaching and learning.‖ Moreover, Mariela et al [7] emphasize that intelligent online tools -will facilitate the interchange of [academic course] data between different services and applications.‖ Burian et al [8] discuss building capacity in higher education in developing countries. They suggest -introducing instruments to guide, review, and provide feedback on creating syllabi, lesson plans, learning activities, assessments, and teaching‖.…”

This paper raises the question of the importance of syllabus structure. The research conducted on syllabus components allowed for a thorough analysis of the learning analytics literature, leading to the identification of the main components of the course model and the interrelationship between them. Based on these findings, a web service called the Educational Program Maker was developed. This tool has proven to be notably useful at ITMO University in Saint Petersburg, Russia since its launch in March 2021. It has gradually become the primary instrument for creating academic courses at the university, playing a crucial role in effective communication among educational process participants during the design, development, coordination, and approval of the syllabus. The Educational Program Maker follows a course model that is presented and discussed in this study. Feedback from faculty members who have used the tool has been evaluated, and the results are promising. The Educational Program Maker is not only making the process of creating syllabi and academic documents easier, but it is also improving the quality of these documents and fostering collaboration and communication among educators.

Researchers in Higher Education (HE) institutions/academia and in industry are continuously engaged in generating new solutions and products for existing and emergent problems. Doing quality research and producing better scientific results depend greatly on solid research teams and scientific collaborators. Research output in HE institutions and industry can be optimized with appropriate resources in research teams and collaborations with suitable research partners. The main challenge in finding suitable resources for joint research projects and scientific collaborations pertains to the availability of data and metadata of researchers and their scientific work in traditional formats, for instance, websites, portals, documents, and traditional databases. However, these traditional data sources do not support intelligent and smart ways of finding and querying the right resources for joint research and scientific collaboration. A possible solution resides in the deployment of Semantic Web (SW) techniques and technologies for representing researcher and their research contribution data in a machine-understandable format, thus ultimately proving useful for smart and intelligent query-answering purposes. In pursuit of this, we present a general Methodology for Ontology Design and Development (MODD). We also describe the use of this methodology to design and develop Higher Education Ontology (HEO). This HEO can be used to automate various activities and processes in HE. In addition, we describe the use and adoption of the HEO through a case study on the topic of "finding the right resources for joint research and scientific collaboration". Finally, we provide an analysis and evaluation of our methodology for posing smart queries and evaluating the results based on machine reasoning.
