The Ontology of Adult Learning

Abstract

Jurgen Habermas offered a revolutionary way of thinking about the relationship between knowledge, learning, and the human condition in knowledge and human interests. He provided us with a powerful means of understanding the unity in diversity of human learning. The article presents a philosophical framework that enables vocational and adult educators to situate the orientation of their own educational practice within the three foundational cognitive interests that form irreducible orientations to the world.

“…20,21 With the analysis of the limitations of the existing prediction and early warning systems, an ontology-based combined prediction and early warning model was proposed to address the issue of the semantic heterogeneity among a single prediction model and indicator system in the combined prediction and early warning system. 22 The consistent representation of data, model, and knowledge in the system is realized by establishing an ontology knowledge base. The composition, realization principles, and methods of the ontology knowledge base are analyzed in detail.…”

“…Unlike the traditional models, for example, wavelet neural network and gray system theory, the real‐time data is introduced into the ontology in the form of an entity, and gas early warning is achieved through semantic reasoning, which greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of gas early warning 20,21 . With the analysis of the limitations of the existing prediction and early warning systems, an ontology‐based combined prediction and early warning model was proposed to address the issue of the semantic heterogeneity among a single prediction model and indicator system in the combined prediction and early warning system 22 . The consistent representation of data, model, and knowledge in the system is realized by establishing an ontology knowledge base.…”
