A support system for modeling problem solving workflow

Novice learners in a problem solving domain build up their own understanding of its target area and make plans to solve a problem based on their understanding. Our goal is to develop a system for supporting those processes and the reuse, sharing and inheritance of expertise acquired by suffering troubles. Ontology is a key technique to achieve this goal. In this paper, we mainly focus on supporting learners' planning processes and describe our modeling framework for effective and efficient planning of problem solving workflow that includes learning processes.
