Abstract

In E-Learning, the selection of the pedagogical contents to teach and the organization of this content are two principal operations during the design of a course. The growth and the diversity of the informational resources used generate problems of diffusion, access, of classification and management. With the MEMORAe project, we deal with these problems and propose to answer them by using an ontology- based organisational memory. In this article, we describe how and why we exploit the formalism of Topic maps to represent the contents of a course organisational memory and the TMQL standard to interrogate it.
