Abstract

The results of the studies, directed toward the development of methods and models of the ontologically controlled e-courses on the basis of ontologies of the set of subject disciplines, mechanisms of ontologic management and the architecture of the system of the automated construction of courses, were presented The possibilities of ontological approach to electronic learning were analyzed. It was shown, that the ontological knowlwdge bases are one of the components of innovative technologies in e-learning and can become a basis for developing effective e-courses in different disciplines and specialities It was shown that the ontological approach to development of e-courses, on condition of automation of this process, ensures the reduction of costs for their creation and enhances the result of learning. The concept of developing the ontologically managed e-courses, which includes the use of methodology of e-courses synthesis on the basis of ontologies of subject disciplines and the library of reference information, was developed. There was demonstrated an example of creation of the ontologically controlled e-course on the discipline “Data bases” with the help of the program of compiling ontograhs and automated construction of e-courses developed in Java language. The process of developing e-courses on the basis of its information and functional models was demonstrated. It was shown, that a high degree of formalization and structurization of ontology of subject discipline as well as the integrated ontological approach to the innovative methods of e-learning can serve as a platform for creating effective e-courses in the system of higher education.

Highlights

  • Under contemporary conditions of global informatization of society and rapid development of digital systems, e-learning occupied its niche on the market of educational technologies

  • – MOA is the metaontology of the domain of subject disciplines, considered as a hierarchic structure of disciplines from the curricula of a department or a faculty;

  • That the ontograph is the first component of ontology, and its formalized description in one of the conventional languages of the ontologies description is the second

Summary

Introduction

Under contemporary conditions of global informatization of society and rapid development of digital systems, e-learning (or EL) occupied its niche on the market of educational technologies. In many cases EL ensures improvement of the quality and accessibility of education, extends its forms and methods and contributes to the integration of countries to the European and world-wide educational programs. In spite of the significant costs for developing e-courses (EC) and the abundance of materials, e-learning is not always accompanied by an adequate feedback, in particular, because of low effectiveness of existing knowledge bases (KB). One of the most perspective approaches in the contemporary education paradigm, increasing the effectiveness of KB, including educational ones, is the ontological approach, which makes studies in this direction relevant, especially in the context of development of innovative methods of teaching on the platform of different informational communication technologies
