Abstract

Valuable information can be gained by mining metadata of educational resources. However, if the mined data is annotated using IEEE Learning Objects and Metadata standard (LOM), then significant pedagogical information is missing. In this paper, we will describe how an ontology of pedagogical objects that captures the "pedagogical semantics" of a learning resource helps data mining to retrieve more precise information. Two case studies illustrate the advantages of an ontological approach.
