Semiotic-Conceptual Analysis (SCA) is a mathematical formalisation of semiotics that builds on a conceptual foundation. Its aim is to present a means for analysing the relationship between representations and their meanings. SCA can thus support “interactive linguistics”. The initial step of SCA is a qualitative analysis which provides an overview of the structures of an application domain. This initial step is followed by more formal analyses. In this paper, the initial step of SCA is applied to a learning management system as an example from the domain of educational software.
