Slide 9: Semantic Web – a short introduction
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 10: Semantic Web ...
| aiming at making Web content accessible to machines | in a way that goes beyond mere presentation and rendering of content | goal: enriching the existing Web to provide Web-based systems with advanced (so-called intelligent) capabilities,
| |
in particular with context-awareness and decision support.
| realised with meta-data and (meta-) data processing
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 11: One of the core challenges for the Semantic Web for Learning: providing meta data
| humans can provide meta data by using a machine interpretable coding scheme (XML, RDF, XML, OWL, … ) | Humans can use inductive approaches as e.g. tagging | computers can produce structure & meta data automatically | All these approaches are not easy to realise.

Slide 12: Learning with the Semantic Web …
| ... is in its infancy | several projects and tools | but only few of them with a special focus on learning

Slide 15: Aspect 1: The Content

Slide 17: Example: MOSEP Tutorials within a Semantic Wiki (Ikewiki)
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
See http://wiki.mosep.org
Slide 18: Aspect 1: The Content
| a) the content is fixed (“canned content”), claiming to be objective | b) the content as dynamic, permanently “under development” and only shallowly categorised (miscellaneous)
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 19: Aspect 2: The role of the learner
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 20: Example: An active math application

Slide 21: Example: FLOCK

Slide 22: Aspect 2: The role of the learner
| a) the learner as a consumer, being taught by a teacher/trainer | b) the learner as an active, self-organised creator of his/her own environment
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 23: Aspect 3: The social involvement
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 24: 2008-06-03 EduMedia08
“The setting for Web-based education” according to Devedižić (2004, figure 2, p. 32) – an exemplary illustration of an socially isolated learner

Slide 26: Aspect 3: The Social Involvement
| a) the learner as “isolated”, on his/her own | b) the learner communicates with humans, in terms of being involved in a learning community
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 27: Project Screening
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 28: E.g. the APOSDLE project
2008-06-03 EduMedia08
Slide 29: E.g. the APOSDLE project
| Is the learning content seen as something miscellaneous and under development? | Is the role of learner that of an active, self-organised creator? | Does the social involvement, e.g. the learning communities, play a role?
