An approach to developing the component based multi-layer knowledge management architecture in the distance learning system

Abstract

The paper analyzes the abilities for improving the distance learning system by means of developing collaboration components. Multi-layer architecture of the distance learning system and demand for integration of intelligent agents are also analyzed. The architecture solution of this type learning system is proposed by integration of scenarios and decision support components in the context analysis stage. The possibilities to integrate different levels of domain ontology into a content management system of selected architecture are discussed. The approach to developing the component-based knowledge management system in the e-learning environment is discussed in order to intellectualize processes such as collaboration support, adaptive presentation, interactive problem support, etc. The supposed collaborative architecture is developed with a view to integrate components by means of agents and their scenarios.
