In this paper, we present a review on the use of ontologies in learning object repositories systems for searching and suggestion purposes, considering its adoption for the seaThings project that aims to promote the ocean literacy. We also describe the use case of the Cognix system and Agent-based Learning Objects - OBAA metadata standard for learning objects which is being implemented on a new learning objects ...
