Abstract
With more and more Open Education Resources (OER) courses being recognised and acknowledged by global learners, an emerging issue is that learners’ self-efficacy is often affected by the lack of interaction between peers and instructors in their continuous self-learning process. This paper proposes a low-level Knowledge Point-based approach to serve application layers to enhance the interaction during the self-learning. This is achieved through taking advantage of Semantic Web and Linked Data techniques to annotate and interlink OER fragments which can later be reused and interoperated more conveniently.
