Workshop on Applications of Semantic Web Technologies for E-learning

SW-EL’04 will focus on issues related to using concepts, ontologies and semantic web technologies to build e-learning applications. It follows the successful workshop on Concepts and Ontologies in Web-based Educational Systems, held in conjunctions with ICCE’2002 in Auckland, New Zealand. Due to the great interest, the 2004 edition of the workshop will be organized in three sessions held at three different conferences. The aim is to discuss the current problems in e-learning from different perspectives, including those of web-based intelligent tutoring systems and adaptive hypermedia courseware, and the implications of applying semantic web standards and technologies for solving them.
