EUD in Enterprise Open Source Learning Environments

Abstract

Open Source development model gives users the opportunity to contribute. The development of Open Source System does not end at deployment time but requires continuous user participation and contribution. Many companies are involved in Open Source communities for enterprise software development and a huge amount of investments are related to training and new paradigms of Distance Learning. Open Source Community approach in Learning Environments code development, in Open Source courses and Learning Objects gives each user (and each company) the opportunity to contribute to software and course development. The new e-learning frontier and the world research community interest are focused on collaborative learning approach. Using Intelligent agent and systems (based on reasoning tools or linked data complex querying) makes possible to give each learner or teacher the opportunity to build customized learning paths. Learning Intelligent System (LIS) should recommend learning objects based on learner skills and learner final goals.
