Conceptual Model for Specialized Learning Systems within Organizations

This study is focused on the potentiality and benefits that intelligent learning systems can bring to knowledge intensive organizations, in particularly software houses. Therefore the authors will present a conceptual model for the foundation of specialized knowledge systems with dynamic content regulation, oriented to self-learning. Its structure is based on the combination of semantic technologies (e.g. ontologies) and social networks, from where interaction lasts. To achieve that goal, it is important to know-how to explore the information in this type of environments, as well as understand which behaviors and trends influence the individuals learning in the digital era. The connectivist theory offers an important contribution to the understanding of this phenomenon, being therefore one of the basic reference in the development of this work.
