Abstract: | Higher Education faculty performs both research and teaching activities. Now, more than ever, there is an imminent need to capture these activities, as well as the interactions between the academics, for evaluation and networking purposes. Research and teaching are the main quality indicators of Higher Educational Institutions' offered services and curricula. They determine the level of growth and progress of an academic unit and of the individuals serving its cause. As a direct consequence, valuable results can be derived from the processing of this information. This paper introduces an ontology for the representation of the educational and research activities carried out within the academic context with emphasis on the formulation of collaborations among the academic staff. On the basis of the developed ontology, it also illustrates services and tools for supporting the quality evaluation processes of academic organizations, in particular through visualization of teaching and research collaboration networks. Additionally, it incorporates scientists' and academics' networking capabilities. It therefore constitutes a system that can be used to support HEIs in processes related to the evaluation of research, educational and collaboration activity among academics. |
