Sharing learner profile through an ontology and Web services

We propose a Web services based solution to exchange learner's information among different e-learning systems described following Web ontology. The Web services technology was used because it allows the easy communication between Web applications through the HTTS protocol. Our goal is to make different e-learning systems to cooperate with each other in order to reach a set of learner information richer than that currently found in standard e-learning systems. The present work is part of a current project intended to present an adaptive content associated to a particular student profile, the AdaptWeb/spl reg/ Project.
