Descrição

Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Engenharia Eletrotécnica e de Computadores Nowadays, there is an evident increase of the custom-made products or solutions demands with the objective to better fits to customer needs and profiles. Aligned with this, research in e-learning domain is focused in developing systems able to dynamically readjust their contents to respond to learners’ profiles demands. On the other hand, there is also an increase of e-learning developers which even not being from pedagogical curricula, as research engineers, needs to prepare e-learning programmes about their prototypes or products developed. This thesis presents a knowledge-based framework with the purpose to support the creation of e-learning materials, which would be easily adapted for an effective generation of custom-made e-learning courses or programmes. It embraces solutions for knowledge management, namely extraction from text & formalization and methodologies for collaborative e-learning courses development, where main objective is to enable multiple organizations to actively participate on its production. This also pursues the challenge of promoting the development of competencies, which would result from an efficient knowledge-transfer from research to industry.
