At the same time, ontologies are rich knowledge representation structures that can be utilized for modeling the domain concepts. We then present how we can take advantage of the ontological models for two very popular programming languages – that is Java and C – in an attempt to provide tutors with the possibility to better organize their educational material.</p> |
