Welcome to the SW-EL'05 @ ICALT'05 Workshop Session

The Workshop on Applications of Semantic Web technologies for e-Learning is highly relevant to the topic of the 2005 edition of ICALT "Next generation e-learning systems: intelligent applications and smart design".

Appropriate topics for the ICALT'05 session of the SWEL'05 workshop are listed below however contributors are free to suggest additional ones. The topics can be approached from different perspectives: theoretical, systems engineering, application, case study and system evaluation, etc. All contributions are required to state explicitly in the abstract which topic they are addressing.
  • Using ontologies and/or semantic web technologies within e-learning applications (to achieve interoperability between educational applications, sharable user models and knowledge components, etc.).
  • Ontology engineering and knowledge representation in e-learning systems.
  • Using ontologies and/or Semantic Web technologies to support authoring of e-learning systems.
  • Using Semantic Web technologies to achieve better personalization and adaptation in e-learning systems (i.e. modularised and standardized architectures, separation of domain models and application models, flexible user models).
  • Using Semantic Web services for the purposes of e-learning (i.e. authoring service, user modelling service, etc.). 
  • Web standards issues for e-learning, e.g. moving educational standards such as LOM and SCORM closer to the semantic web. 
  • Real-world systems, case studies and empirical research for e-learning systems.
  • Semantic web-based e-learning architectures.
