Abstract

Currently, one of the most important application domains for Software Engineering is distance education and e-learning. There exist some standards/specifications that deal with the definition of both the data models and services needed in this environment. Among them, Educational Modelling Languages (EMLs) define the content and process within a unit of instruction. Nevertheless, current EMLs do not completely cover the whole educational scenarios. This paper uses workflow management techniques to present a conceptual meta-model for group-based educational design. This meta-model includes all required elements, flows and policies needed in this domain. Lacks in current Educational Modelling Languages will be identified to model group-based education.
