Abstract: | The availability of resources for learning has increased dramatically with the advent of the World Wide Web. Additionally, learning using web resources is usually informal and self-regulated. Thus, this challenges learners with the tasks of organizing, structuring and evaluating their relevant learning resources in a self-directed way. In this paper we propose Knowledge Networks as a solution to these challenges. Knowledge Networks usually provide the means to organize Web Resources with either setting focus on supporting Personal Knowledge Networks (with the possibility of enabling learners to adapt the Network to their own needs) or Community Knowledge Networks (with like-minded members of a community collaborating). We focus on our implementation of a Knowledge Network, ELWMS.KOM, that integrates an adaptable Personal as well as an adaptive Community Network. In particular the collaborative community scenario enables learners to learn from their peers. We present an approach to semantically tag web resources and state the properties of our assumed user model and scenario. |
