• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/learning
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The agent providing instruction in a gmeow:Teaching relation. Functional: one teaching, one teacher; co-teaching is several gmeow:Teaching relators sharing a gmeow:subjectTaught and a gmeow:learner set. The teacher must differ from every gmeow:learner of the same Teaching (gmeow:TeachingShape).

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Teaching -> gmeow:Agent; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:teacher from gmeow:Teaching to gmeow:Agent when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to bind a gmeow:Teaching to the single gmeow:Agent giving instruction — the mandatory, functional teacher player of the relator.

Avoid when

• Avoid more than one teacher per Teaching (it is functional — co-teaching is several Teachings) and never point it at an agent that is also a gmeow:learner of the same Teaching (gmeow:TeachingShape forbids teacher = learner).

How to use

• Point the Teaching at exactly one gmeow:Agent as teacher; bind the learner(s) with gmeow:learner and the content with gmeow:subjectTaught, keeping teacher and learner distinct.

Examples

• ex:lesson1 gmeow:teacher ex:mentor.
