This presentation is an overview of my PhD research related to the OpenScout project and developed during my visiting research internship at KMi. It is a working in progress. It aims to discuss a virtual social network as a knowledge space. The research field focuses on the Colearn community. It is a Portuguese language community (Brazil, Spain, Portugal and England) interested in educational technologies whose some members are participating in the OpenScout - Tool Library social network. The OpenScout - Tool Library, developed in KMi, is a space for communities sharing stories and tools for adapting OER. My research focuses on the process of sharing and acquiring knowledge through a network of practice.
Maven of the Month
We are also inviting top experts in AI and Knowledge Technologies to discuss major socio-technological topics with an audience that comprises both members of the Knowledge Media Institute, as well as the wider staff at The Open University. Differently from our seminar series, these events follow a Q&A format.
