The proposed computer system implements a scheme of joint-classroom and distance learning, scientific and exploratory research in order to motivate and stimulate students' independent work in acquiring professional competencies. The developed system reflects both the traditional structure of education in universities using groups of students,…

One of the most challenging issues for online courseware engineering is to maintain the quality of instructional components, such as written text, video, and assessments. Learning engineers would like to know how individual instructional components contributed to students' learning. However, it is a hard task because it requires significant…

Software agents communicate using ontology. It is important to build an ontology for specific domain such as Software Engineering Education. Building an ontology from scratch is not only hard, but also incur much time and cost. This study aims to propose an ontology through adaptation of the existing ontology which is originally built based on a…

In an increasingly technological society, there is a social need for designing communication technology around the perceptual abilities and cognitive strategies of people.
