Método e Ferramenta para Ensino de Projeto e Desenvolvimento de Ontologias

Abstract

This paper presents a teaching method for the design and development of ontologies and a tool that was created to support this method. The teaching method covers theoretical and practical aspects, combining Description Logics and formal methods contents, with practice in the form of a development project on an OWL ontology, which is based on current Ontology Engineering methodologies. The tool developed to support this method provides a learning environment for programming applications based on OWL ontologies, but it takes into account the logical and declarative aspects of ontologies. After the presentation of the method and the tool, a scenario with the application of the teaching method is introduced.
