Notes:
- Alternative approach to ontology based curriculum development in higher education
- Flexible and responsive curricula are required
- Need to represent essential curricular information in a way that allows sharing common components across various work processes within the educational environment.
- Systematically analyzing external source data to extract the basic knowledge, skills and dependencies which then become objects into an ontology
- Resulting ontology should act as a computationally accessible model of the curriculum with sufficient information and usable quality
- Uses actual curriculum documents

- Curriculum structure:
- Base is knowledge which is covered in courses
- Learning objectives tackle parts of the knowledge

- Convert course objectives into learning objectives

- The curriculum ontology is same as in 2017 MBussemaker CompChemEngg

- Example is from Data Sturcutre
