There are also some re-used variables which are:</p> <ul> <li>vuc:<strong>CourseID</strong>&nbsp;rdf:type teach:Course <ul> <li>This returns all courses when used in sparql.</li> </ul> </li> <li>dbo:language <ul> <li>This property returns the language in which a course is given as a dbr:<strong>LanguageName</strong></li> </ul> </li> <li>teach:academicTerm <ul> <li>This property is used in order to return the academic term in which a course is given as a string.</li> </ul> </li> <li>teach:courseTitle <ul> <li>This property returns the name of a course as a string.</li> </ul> </li> <li>teach:ects <ul> <li>This property returns the number of European credits one receives for a course as an integer.</li> </ul> </li> <li>teach:grading <ul> <li>This property returns the grading method of a course as a string.&nbsp;</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>This data set can be used in order to find specific information about courses without knowing the exact course name or code. For example, you can fetch all courses that have 3 credits and are in English, given at the faculty of Science. Therefore it becomes much easier for students that want to follow courses outside of their major/master, which also fit their requirements. In a normal situation, a student would need to search through all 2064 courses given at the VU to find a course that they like.&nbsp;</p>
