MODELING EDUCATIONAL KNOWLEDGE - Supporting the Collaboration of Computer Science Teachers

Peter Hubwieser, Marcus Bitzl

Abstract

The planning of lessons and courses is a very complicated work. Unfortunately many teachers tend to prepare their lessons without profiting from the experiences of their colleagues. In this paper we show how the collaboration of teachers could be supported by a community software that supports the collaboration focusing on the knowledge elements that form the topic of the lesson that is to prepare. Starting from the didactical model of Heimann, Otto and Schulz, we have designed an ontology that comprises most of the information that is necessary to design a lesson in computer science.
