Abstract

The aim of DALIA project is to build a platform for learning material for Research Data Management (RDM) and Data Science. The platform is based on a knowledge graph. We introduce MoDalia, the base ontology of DALIA knowledge graph. Modalia inherits some modules from EduCOR. It includes also modelling of micro -credentials and certificates

Introduction back to ToC

Motivation

The MoDALIA ontology was developed to provide a structured and interoperable framework for representing learning and teaching materials within DALIA platform. The motivation stems from the growing need to integrate heterogeneous educational resources, metadata, and activities into a unified semantic model. By formalizing key entities such as educational resources, target groups, learning resource types, RDM topics and skills MoDALIA enhances discoverability and reusability across systems. The ontology facilitates semantic alignment with established standards such as Dublin Core, Schema.org, and Ontologies in the domain like EduCOR , ensuring broad compatibility.

Usage

MoDALIA serves as the semantic backbone of the learning and teaching material management platform, enabling consistent description, linking, and retrieval of resources. It supports various operations including metadata annotation, resource discovery, and recommendation through linked data principles.

Design

The design of MoDALIA follows a modular ontology engineering approach, promoting extensibility, reuse, and maintainability. Each module encapsulates a specific conceptual domain—such as educational resources, skills, or topics—allowing independent development and integration. This modularity ensures that MoDALIA can evolve with emerging standards while maintaining semantic coherence across modules. New concepts and properties are located in the namespace of MoDALIA (modalia:).

MoDALIA does not import complete ontologies for the sake of relevance, and readability.

MoDALIA: Description back to ToC

MODALIA is an OWL ontology as backbone of teaching, learning and personal recommendation platform (DALIA). The main focus of DALIA platform is Research Data Management (RDM) and Data Science (DS). We used a modular approach in the design of MODALIA. Also we tried to find in the literature suitable terms to use instead of creating new ones.

3.1. Educational Resource Module

MODALIA identifies the following modules: Educational Resource, RDM, Knowledge Topic, User Enrollment, Community, Learning Path, User Profile. The figure below shows the class diagram of the main module Educational Re- source. The main class is Educational Resource class which is extended from EduCor . Class LearningResource- Type gives didactic type of the resource and its subclasses include Lecture, Poster, Diagram etc. The other class describing the content of the educational resource is MediaType which is similar to Multimedia class in EduCor and is related to learners preferred way of learning (i.e. reading, watching, listening, etc). MediaType has subclasses Video, Audio, Image, Text and Code. Contributions to the resource are described similar to Bibframe , by iden- tifying agent (i.e Contributor) and role. Proficiency level contains five value according to Benner’s proficiency levels. It starts from novice to expert. There are two properties the first requiresProficiencyLevel identifies the min- imum required level of the learner to be able to learn that resource. The second property givesProficiencyLevel is level of learner after successfully learning the resource. Class TargetGroup describes the target audience of a re- source. For DALIA project use cases it includes Bachelor student, Master’s student, PhD student and Data Steward.
