Learning Object Indexing Tool Based on a LOM Ontology

The increasing number of available resources that may be used during e-learning scenarios can show problems of access, management and sharing of these resources. An e-learning application deals with the same problem of relevance to the Web. The semantic Web recommends standards for providing a solution to these issues. One main feature of this new Web generation is the use of semantics based on ontologies. This paper presents an approach for indexing learning resources by a specific LOM ontology. We also present the tool that we have built allowing to describe learning objects and helping to search for them.
