This guide defines a comprehensive framework for representing, integrating, and utilizing knowledge graphs in the domain of education. It covers the core ontology, data specifications, implementation guidelines, use cases, and best practices for constructing, maintaining, and leveraging educational knowledge graphs (EDUKGs) across various educational levels and contexts. The guide introduces a common vocabulary and data model for representing educational knowledge in a structured, machine-readable format, facilitating interoperability and reusability across different systems and platforms. It supports the development of intelligent and personalized educational applications, such as recommendation systems, question-answering engines, and adaptive learning platforms. Furthermore, the guide provides guidance on integrating EDUKGs with large language models (LLMs) and graph-based retrieval augmented generation (Graph-RAG) techniques, enabling advanced natural language processing and knowledge retrieval capabilities in educational applications. By leveraging semantic web technologies, graph databases, and AI/ML techniques, this guide aims to enhance personalized learning, intelligent tutoring, curriculum design, and educational analytics, ultimately transforming the landscape of educational technology.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
