more personalized feedback. In addition, profiling
techniques based on the user’s data (Lapatas and
Stefanidakis, 2010) can be used to achieve more
accurate personalization.
The web development can be achieved by using
AJAX (Asynchronous JAvascript and XML) which
provides all the necessary tools needed for the
synchronous/asynchronous conversations and video
conferences. As far as it concerns the wikis and the
customized search, it is possible to be done using
PHP’s HTML DOM (Document Object Model); so
we can manipulate the content of this site, use it as
input for a wiki site or a customized Google search,
return the results and finally process them to create
some output.
This is just a first assumption of how this project
can be implemented using today’s technologies.
When the actual development starts, the mentioned
techniques will be subjected to change.
6 CONCLUSIONS
The goal of this concept is to introduce the user to
lifelong learning. The daily usage of the application
comes from its social characteristics and the adapted
content which raises the interest. Using the
combination of the features mentioned above, the
system will be able to achieve a personalized
interactivity with each user. The presented concept
is an attempt to introduce an educational system
which combines Web 3.0 technologies in order to
achieve better personalization and usability.
Furthermore, the social networking characteristics
will contribute in gaining wide acceptance and
satisfaction.
Moreover, technologies such as, Artificial
Intelligence and the WWW have rapidly evolved
over the last few years. Despite of this situation,
educational concepts have not been developed. As a
result there are a lot of potentials to take advantage
of this growth. Summarizing, the proposed system
could be a useful medium for rapid and accurate
knowledge spread in academic and corporate
section.
