Object-oriented analysis and design of educational content

Abstract

This paper presents educational content of the vocational education and education at all as a broad information system. The authors point out the absence of formalization in educational content notation analysis and design on the contrary of other fields, where modeling plays irreplaceable role. For modeling this information system they use Unified Modeling Language UML, which is specialized language for system specification primarily in object-oriented manner. The paper further refers to a parallel between object-oriented analysis and design OOAN and object-oriented didactical transformation OODT. Modeling in OODT context leads to models with zero redundancy in educational content which represents socalled basic curriculum. Identifying that basic curriculum is still unresolved and discussed because the pedagogical theory hasn't defined methodology for explicit expression of the basic curriculum yet.
