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
of semantic technology for supporting learning content in the eLearning environment. A
conceptual model is referred to present the idea of learning content development
through semantic web technology in the educational context. Furthermore, the
ontological development model describes the process involved in building concepts and
