Pedagogically-Informed Knowledge Mapping: Representing Contextualised Competences

Representing Hard-to-Formalise, Contextualised, Muitidisciplinary, Organisational Knowledge

1 Much organisational knowledge is multidisciplinary, hard to formalise, and generated in discussions with competing viewpoints. Knowledge Management (KM) technologies need to be able to capture and share such knowledge. This short paper begins by characterising ’knowledge work’--are there salient features that we can identify? Next, an approach is described by which teams analyse and discuss p...

Acquiring and Applying Contextualised Tacit Knowledge

Pedagogically informed metadata content and structure for learning and teaching

In order to be able to search, compare, gap analyse, recommend, and visualise learning objects, learning resources, or teaching assets, the metadata structure and content must be able to support pedagogically informed reasoning, inference, and machine processing over the knowledge representations. In this paper, we present the difficulties with current metadata standards in education: Dublin Co...

Using a Concept Mapping Tool for Representing the Domain Knowledge

In this paper, the authors show the benefits of using a concept mapping tool for gathering the domain knowledge in the computer-aided learning area. Concretely, we show how CM-ED is used integrated in the IRIS Intelligent Tutoring System authoring tool. First, the paper describes the structure of the domain knowledge in IRIS. Then, the main characteristics of CM-ED are listed. Finally, the new ...
