OPEN DATA, LINKED DATA AND THE SEMANTIC WEB IN EDUCATION AT THE FIS UEP

Open Data refers to machine-readable data shared on the Web for re-use. Due to its open nature Open Data could act as an educational resource that is accessible to teachers and students without unnecessary barriers and that can be freely redistributed or modified to fit the purposes of the educational process. In this paper we discuss how an open dataset was re-used as Open Educational Resource in the SPARQLab application and we also present results of an analysis of the final theses dealing with Open Data, Linked Data and the Semantic Web defended at the Faculty of Informatics and Statistics of the University of Economics, Prague.
