Hayashi, Yusuke; Bourdeau, Jacqueline; Mizoguchi, Riichiro – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2009
This paper describes the achievements of an innovative eight-year research program first introduced in Mizoguchi and Bourdeau (2000), which was aimed at building a theory-aware authoring system by using ontological engineering. To date, we have proposed OMNIBUS, an ontology that comprehensively covers different learning/instructional theories and…
