Paper Abstract:	This research work is devoted to creating the service oriented electronic (distance) learning environment adaptable to the use’s needs. The quality of the e-learning course is largely influenced by competently prepared educational resources and an effective study support system. One of the possible ways to improve distance learning infrastructure and increase its effectiveness is to extend the present e-learning system by integrating domain ontology and forming intelligent agents’ framework possible, which enables better adaptation of learning resources to user (student). The paper analyses the possibilities of integrating ontology into the e-learning system. The issues of decomposing ontology into different levels of understanding are discussed in order to adapt to learner’s tasks and goals. A conceptual approach is proposed for extending the existing distance learning system architecture by intelligent and deeper knowledge layers.
