%X Nowadays, the web has become an important learning platform. Its accessibility has 
made it a successful environment particularly for eLearning education. However, the 
emerging technology of the Semantic Web sets out challenges that need to be explored 
in bringing the eLearning platform to the next level. This paper discusses the potential

through semantic web technology in the educational context. Furthermore, the 
ontological development model describes the process involved in building concepts and
