Can any of you tell me if there is a general ontology for e-learning, that we can use to find e-learning web services?

It is not possible to have a general ontology for e-learning because the design of an ontology is oriented with its use.

Hi Nabila

I've found a couple of links that you might find useful as they include diagrams showing the flow of the data and knowledge and setup. Hope these are of use to you.

Thank you, very helpful suggestions.

Usually ontologies are models of some domain, more or less general, including foundational ontologies, like DOLCE. Are you asking for an ontology, modeling/representing all e-learning process, their structural moments (components), relations, etc., and their concrete instantiations, including, maybe semantic, web services?

Nabila Bousbia

Thank you for your answers. I am looking to find e-learning web services (or resources) following what they offer: authoring tool, assessment tool, etc. I thought that an ontology that described all e-learning resources/ web services can help. I knew there in a thesaurus at http://www.tel-thesaurus.net/tel/ but an ontology with semantic links will be more useful.

Hi Nabila,

Not sure if it exactly an ontology - but you could consider the following work which categorised online learning.

Garrison, R. (2000). Theoretical Challenges for Distance Education in the 21st Century: A Shift from Structural to Transactional Issues. International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning, 1(1).
