Abstract :
This paper proposes an ontology mapping-based framewrowrk that allows
searching for learning resources using multiple ontologies. The present
applications of ontologies in e-learning use various ontologies (eg, domain,
curriculum, context), but they do not give a solution on how to interoperate
e-learning systems based on different ontologies. The proposed solution uses a
mapping ontology that is a part of a recent Semantic Web initiative, the Simple
Knowledge Organisation System. On top of that, we develop and implement
two search algorithms. Finally, we evaluated the solution by developing a
system that helps students search for relevant learning resource using a local
context (ie, course curriculum) ontology
