OntoSAMSEI: Interactive ontology engineering for supporting simulation-based training in Medicine
Résumé
Simulation-based training is becoming a central need in medical education. So far, only a few pioneering teachers have developed and documented a pedagogical expertise for setting up training sessions based on simulation, making difficult to share it with less experienced teachers. In this paper, we describe an interactive and incremental ontology modeling approach in order to model such ill-defined domains related to pedagogy. We have built the ONTOSAMSEI ontology for simulation-based medical education domain, and developed a new tool to automatically generate pre-filled forms in order to share the acquired knowledge among domain experts, and collect new information from them to enrich the ontology. We also report on the evaluation by domain experts of the completeness and the accuracy of the ONTOSAMSEI ontology resulting from this incremental methodology supported by a pre-filled graphical user interface.
