Body of Knowledge Model and Linked Data Applied in Development of Higher Education Curriculum

Abstract:

The corpus of knowledge or Bodies of Knowledge (BOK) term was used to describe a set of structures than codify all concept, terms, techniques, and sustainable educational activities that constitute the domain of the exercise of a profession or specific area of knowledge. This is the reason why it is important for both the scientific and the educational communities to carry out research in BOK. In short, BOK proposes new strategies that allow to describe, represent, and combine the above-mentioned set of structures with different computational techniques. One of these techniques is Linked Data, which appeared in the Web Semantic Context. This paper describes the study and implementation of Linked Data Technologies for the publication of data related to the academic offer of a Higher Education Center, using a methodology of publication of Linked Data and supported by the model of description of BOK. From the process described above, a web application was obtained, where the BOK model and principles of the were combined, for the visualization of academic data, as a contribution to curricular development. The next steps are implemented of BOK model with the combination of other semantic web techniques and artificial intelligence principles.
