This section gives a description of notions used throughout this study. Current achievements in developing action-centered ontologies are also discussed. 2.1 Ontologies In the context of information extraction and retrieval, different kinds of ontologies can be distinguished 15]: - Top-level ontologies describe very general concepts like space and time, not depending on a particular domain, - Domain ontologies and task ontologies describe the vocabulary related to a generic domain or kind of task, detailing the terms used in the top-level ontology, - Application ontologies describe the...

Twenty years ago, informatics was introduced as a compulsory subject in A- trian secondary schools. During this period informatics has experienced drastic evolutions and even some shifts of paradigms. This applies to an even larger extent to the didactics of informatics. ISSEP-InformaticsinSecondarySchools, EvolutionandPerspectives-takes stock of how the developments in the ?eld are re?ected in school throughout Europe.
