Abstract

Identify, characterize and explain examples of an approach of education that it´s thinking for improving education, enrich and accelerate learning for students using the possibilities of the tools of web 3.0 (social networking for learning, working and semantic technologies). This is not the traditional e-learning system, which too often has become an educational system to do the same thing in the classroom by other ways.

It´s relative to analyze the advantages of structuring and “semantization” of the data under the paradigm linked-data-web to manage web content with providing educational sense, contributing to useful recommendation systems, faceted-search and appropriate contexts for the information. In short, link data to data regarding the interests of the people. GNOSS and Didactalia are two nodes that take part of the Linked Open Data Web. Example: – Universidad 2.0.
