Abstract
This paper presents a global framework based on ontologies to generate effective feedback for students getting error messages while learning to program. The proposed framework includes several ontologies: one of the domain, one of possible mistake types and one of the causes of these mistakes. They are connected by an intermediary ontology. The feedback is adaptive and depends on contents or students profiles (derived from interaction data) and is supported by a fifth ontology. Possible compilation errors in an introductory C programming course are presented as an example of this framework.
