Abstract
This work is aimed to the design and implementation of an ontology, for helping to quantify and describe the lexicon of students in a particular location, focused on mathematics. The idea is to build a tool that can help to share, via Internet, this particular lexicon, encouraging new research efforts pointing to support new educational systems. The final product, the resulting ontology, was evaluated taking into account different parameters as suggested by the selected methodology, showing that results satisfy the initial goals of the project.
