Abstract
Information and Communication Technologies have transformed the way people work and have an increasing impact on the long life learning. Organizational Learning is an increasingly important area of research that concerns the way organizations learn and thus increase their competitive advantage, innovativeness, and effectiveness. Within the project MEMORAe2.0, our objective is to get ready students for their professional life, i.e. to learn to learn. To that end, we made the choice to consider a course as an organization and more precisely a learning organization. We developed the environment E-MEMORAe2.0 based on the model of an organizational memory to capitalize and to distribute knowledge and resources related to a course. By means of E-MEMORAe2.0, learners use, produce and exchange documents and knowledge. In this article, we present our approach of organizational learning in the project MEMORAe2.0 and we describe how we implemented it in the E-MEMORAe2.0 environment.
