Abstract: In this paper we present the semantic data model that we have developed and discuss our experience in using this data model in the curriculum of an introductory semantic web course. The semantic data model bridges the existing gap between data and semiotics and is the first one covering a combination of different aspects regarding data.

Keywords: semantic data modelling; semantics; semiotics; semiotic triangle; semantic web; teaching.
