The rapidly changing world and the advent of the Information Society, with the continuous change of working conditions and the evolution of information and communication technologies, boost the needs for updating people’s knowledge and skills.

Recent efforts in the area of learning technology have resulted in a considerable improvement in the interoperability of learning resources across different Learning Management Systems (LMS) and Learning Object Repositories (LOR). The central paradigm of such reuse-oriented technology is the notion of learning objects as digital reusable pieces of learning activities or contents.

Semantic Web technology is able to provide the required computational semantics for the automation of tasks related to learning objects such as selection or composition.
