An Ontological Approach for Domain Knowledge Modeling and Management in E-Learning Systems

Part 2: First AI in Education Workshop: Innovations and Applications (AIeIA 2012)International audienceOne of the most important tasks in the process of designing educational material for distance learning is the representation and modeling of the cognitive domain to which the material refers.

Moreover, this methodology has been applied to the educational material of the Hellenic Open University
