model, ontological engineering Definition In the context of computer and information sciences, an ontology defines a set of representational primitives with which to model a domain of knowledge or discourse. The representational primitives are typically classes (or sets), attributes (or properties), and relationships (or relations among class members). The definitions of the representational primitives include information about their meaning and constraints on their logically consistent application

to bring good final outcomes. A deterministic model is “you get what you expect” risk-free model, which determines the outcome. It also depends on the influence of the uncontrollable the factors that determine the outcome of a decision and the information the decision-maker input as a predicting factor (Arsham, 1996). According to Schrodt (2004), deterministic models was widely used in the early 18th century to study physical processes to develop differential equations by many mathematicians. These

describes use of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to model and document Accounting Information Systems (AIS). The objective of modeling AIS is multifaceted and can be to: visualize, understand, summarize, detail, analyze, design, develop, implement, operate, secure, control, or audit the AIS. UML is a powerful modeling language and technique for all of these modeling tasks and is more robust and semantically superior to the commonly used Structured Analysis (SA) modeling tools of flowcharts (FC)

Derewianka & Jones (2012, pg 45) the first stage ‘building the field’ is a critical stage in grasping the student’s attention to understanding a concept or theory that is about to be learned. The importance of this stage is that the ‘expert other’ referred to, as the teacher has to build students prior knowledge to a topic that is being presented. A student cannot learn and be able to produce ideas if there is no prior knowledge. By slowly building knowledge for the learner and scaffolding their
