Abstract
Today’s ease of access and the volume of knowledge available at the tips of our fingers completely change rules of the game for learning and teaching. Preparing the Web for its 3.0 version i.e. the machine readable version, means publishing facts in a standardized format. It gives the opportunity for using the facts and the knowledge that can be derived not only to teach machines. This chapter proposes a new approach for preparing knowledge resources for learning and testing. The idea is to use structured facts, that Google uses for its Knowledge Graph, in e-learning environment to automate some parts of the education process.
