This project is linking and integrating multi-media teaching materials (slides, videos and textbooks) used in Information Security courses based on a security ontology. The semantic linking of the multimedia course materials allows students to search and compose multimedia and interactive course materials based on the content, medium and learning styles, enabling flexible personalized learning. To achieve these goals, the project is focusing on several research tasks: (1) Segmenting and annotating learning media based on their learning content, (2) Building a Security ontology to be used for annotating and querying of the learning objects, (3) Adapting lecture content to student learning styles, and (4) Evaluating the usability and effectiveness of the linked multimedia security learning system.The technology and methodology that is being developed by this project, including the ontology builder for a given learning topic, the semantic segmentation of multimedia learning objects, the search, and personalization of learning objects, can be adapted to any course. The outcome of this project helps students build upon existing knowledge as they are being introduced to unfamiliar material, by creating subject specific searches of all course content. This changes the way students learn by making course content more organized, interactive, and instantly accessible while adding individualization options. Students are able to fill gaps in their previous learning instantly by integrating search results into their current studying. By having instant access to learning, and experiencing a truly interactive, individualized learning environment, students are less likely to be overwhelmed by course materials.

该项目是基于安全本体的信息安全课程中使用的多媒体教学材料（幻灯片，视频和教科书）的链接和集成。多媒体课程材料的语义链接允许学生根据内容、媒体和学习风格搜索和编写多媒体和交互式课程材料，从而实现灵活的个性化学习。为了实现这些目标，该项目将重点放在以下几项研究任务上：（1）基于学习媒体的学习内容对其进行分段和注释，（2）构建用于注释和查询学习对象的安全本体，（3）使讲座内容适应学生的学习风格，及（4）评估连结多媒体保安学习系统的可用性及有效性。本计划所发展的技术及方法，包括用于给定学习主题的本体构建器、多媒体学习对象的语义分割、搜索以及学习对象的个性化，可以适用于任何课程。这个项目的成果帮助学生建立在现有的知识，因为他们正在介绍不熟悉的材料，通过创建所有课程内容的主题特定的搜索。这改变了学生的学习方式，使课程内容更有组织，互动，即时访问，同时增加个性化选项。学生能够通过将搜索结果整合到他们当前的学习中来填补他们以前学习中的空白。通过即时访问学习，并体验真正的互动，个性化的学习环境，学生不太可能被课程材料淹没。
