Over the last decade, research in the area of e-learning employed efforts in solutions for sharing and reuse of educational resources. However, these solutions were not built for communication with each other. That is, in general, the development of these solutions has not provided mechanisms to facilitate the exchange of resources among them. Thus, this effort led to a fragmented landscape of concurrent metadata schemas or interface mechanisms. To address this problem, this work aims to design an ontology based semantic model for sharing educational resources from different sources. This model serves as a hub of enriched metadata for educational resources, aiming to classify, organize and align these resources. At the
current step of this research, we developed the ontology for the integration model, and initial evaluations were performed, showing its efficiency in the formal description of educational resources.

Open EducationalResources(OER) initiative.
Free access.
Open license.
This trend has led to the development of many OER Repositories.
Wikieducator.org¹ -> 64 repositories.
OER QualityProject² -> 98 repositories.

33. Conclusion
Despite the large number of educational repositories, it is still necessary to build mechanisms of integration.
ThisworkproposesanOntologybasedapproach tointegrateEducationalResources.
Preliminary results show that the Integration Ontology is a promising approach.
