Abstract

In educational context, Learning Object Repositories, institutional repositories and latterly Open Educational Resources, accommodate collections of learning material that can be used for instructive and research purposes. This learning material is usually enriched by metadata descriptions and is publicly available through searching mechanisms. Emerging Web 3.0 applications demand semantic knowledge on these resources in order to participate to Linked Data infrastructures where conceptually searching is processed automatically by software agents. The purpose of this work is to develop a pilot mechanism for semantic searching of learning material utilized in primary and secondary education in Greece, through the emerging Web 3.0 infrastructures. We focus on educational material for teaching courses on Informatics, but the mechanism could be easily adapted in any domain-specific settings. Part of the development process is the design and proposal of a metadata schema for learning objects of primary and secondary education in Greece.
