Abstract

This article discusses the area of ontologies and semantic web technologies in E-Learning and compares the state of research in years 2004 and 2006. It considers the impact of ontologies on the web-based educational systems (WBES). It then presents an ontology of the area of ontologies for education along with a community web portal (O4E) driven by that ontology. Finally, it presents a use case of semantic web technologies as enabling technologies for building WBES: the case of TM4L. Topic Maps for E-Learning (TM4L) is an authoring environment for building ontology-aware standards-based repositories of learning materials (objects).
