“…This is strengthened by the fact that there is not a straightforward correspondence between their elements (McClelland 2003). Therefore, we propose a novel practice to combine and adopt the most representative characteristics of the aforementioned standards, in order to define an Application Profile that meets our needs and simultaneously maintain interoperability.…”

In eLearning context searching for suitable educational material is still a challenging issue. During the last two decades, various digital repositories, such as Learning Object Repositories, institutional repositories and latterly Open Educational Resources, have been developed to accommodate collections of learning material that can be used for instructive and research purposes. In order to make this learning material publicly available through internet searching mechanisms, it has to be enriched with metadata. Nowadays, emerging Web 3.0 applications necessitate further enhancing learning resources with semantic knowledge to facilitate conceptually searching. Adding semantic value to educational resources could be achieved by modeling ontologically the metadata profile which describes them. The purpose of this work is to demonstrate the process of enhancing semantically learning resources by developing Educ Inf Technol a new ontology and a prototype system to accommodate them. The designed ontology is originated from a metadata profile which is build according to the guidelines posed by Singapore Framework for Dublin Core Application Profiles. We focus on educational material for teaching courses on Informatics in primary and secondary education in Greece but the methodology and mechanism introduced could be easily adapted in any domain-specific setting.

“…According to the indications by the authors of the LORI methodology (Leacock & Nesbit, 2007), to achieve a coherent and effective use of the metadata standards is essential in order to overcome technical barriers to reuse learning objects (Duval & Hodgins, 2006;Mcclelland, 2003). The quality of the characteristic description of the metadata and of the level of access of the learning objects are key factors to help users to "evolve from searching to finding" (Duval & Hodgins, 2006).…”

The constant technological development in education, and the potentiality of the resources offered by Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), are challenges faced by teaching institutions in Brazil, especially by those institutions, which by the very nature of their services intend to provide distance education courses. In such a scene, one sees the use of technology as a tool to give support and to take part in the process of teaching activities, such as the Virtual Learning Objects (VLOs), which offer an opportunity to contribute to the teaching and learning process. Considering this, the present work aims at analyzing the VLOs used in the distance education courses of Economic Sciences and

“…O reconhecimento da necessidade de reutilização de materiais educativos gerou o desenvolvimento de padrões de metadados para compartilhamento e armazenamento de documentos [McClelland 2003]. Outrossim, foram inspecionados alguns repositórios de REAs, considerando os repositórios que armazenam REAs de diversos formatos de arquivos, como: imagens, animações, arquivos deáudio, vídeos e outros.…”

Abstract. SeeOER is an architecture for a specialized Open Educational Resources (OERs) Web search engine. The work was developed within the context of a master's degree project. The novel features of the proposed architecture will be introduced and compared to existing works. SeeOER uses intrinsic aspects of OER obtained from metadata. One of its distinticve features is the fact that the developed components take into account aspects of data provenance. This paper describes the scientific methodology, the developed architecture, standard metadata used, demonstrative seeds, related work and an analysis of the results.Resumo. SeeOERé uma arquitetura para um mecanismo de busca na Web especializado para Recursos Educacionais Abertos (REAs). O trabalho foi desenvolvido no contexto de um projeto de mestrado. As características inovadoras da arquitetura proposta são introduzidas e comparadas com trabalhos existentes. SeeOER utiliza aspectos intrínsecos dos REAs obtidos a partir de seus metadados. Uma de suas características distintas dessa arquiteturaé o fato de que os componentes desenvolvidos incorporam aspectos de procedência de dados. Este artigo descreve a metodologia científica utilizada, a arquitetura desenvolvida, os padrões de metadados utilizados, sementes demonstrativas, os trabalhos correlatos e uma análise dos resultados obtidos pelo SeeOER.
