Abstract

This paper introduces a modeling language to facilitate the development of e-learning solutions in accordance with different pedagogical approaches, focusing specially in the support of collaborative learning settings. Usually, e-learning systems are very dependent on the technology, that determine or constraint the pedagogical approach that can be used. Educational Modeling Languages (EMLs) have been proposed to solve this problem. Typically, they are process-based modeling languages that support the computational modeling of educational units in accordance with different pedagogical approaches. Nevertheless, this solution is very complex as the language needs to cover many issues. The introduced language is named as PoEML: Perspective-oriented Educational Modeling Language and it follows a separation of concerns approach to simplify such complexity.
