Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach to Course Curriculum Design (CCD) where Semantic Technologies and Case Based Reasoning (CBR) techniques are used to assure (i) a better understanding of the course being designed and (ii) an efficient use of the available resources. Our work focuses on re-utilization of previously modelled information (courses, tasks, evaluations, etc.) in order to maximize the efficiency of the Course Design process while at the same time embedding implicit and experential knowledge of the course designers. Our approach is presented through an easy to follow architecture that can be adapted to course curriculum regulations of most European and American models. As a test case, we present an implementation for a Spanish technician-level telecommunications course, to demonstrate the benefits of our proposal.
