This is in contrast to real-world settings, where the need for maintenance of domain specific ontologies emerges in the daily work of users. But in order to allow for participatory ontology engineering, we need to have a more realistic conceptual model of how ontologies develop in the real world. We introduce the ontology maturing processes which is based on the insight that ontology engineering is a collaborative informal learning process and for which we analyze characteristic evolution steps and triggers that have users engage in ontology engineering within their everyday work processes. This model integrates tagging and folksonomies with formal ontologies and shows maturing pathways between them. As implementations of this model, we present two case studies and the corresponding tools. The first is about image-based ontology engineering (introducing so-called imagenotions), the second about ontology-enabled social bookmarking (SOBOLEO). Both of them are inspired by lightweight Web 2.0 approaches and allow for realtime collaboration.Mon Nov 05 08:59:06 CET 2007MünchenBildungsportale - Potenziale und Perspektiven netzbasierter Bildungsressourcen191-205E-Learning 2.0 und die Potentiale semantischer Technologien2007elearning portal fzi aps web20 semantics professional_learning lang:de ipe Thu Sep 13 13:59:21 CEST 20077th International Conference on Knowledge Management (IKNOW '07), Special Track on Integrating Working and Learning in Business (IWL)Wikis as a Technology Fostering Knowledge Maturing: What we can learn from Wikipedia2007knowledge_maturing lang:en aps wiki fzi social_software conference ipe professional_learning maturing from:aschmidt The knowledge maturing theory opens an important macro perspective within the new paradigm of work-integrated learning. Especially wikis are interesting socio-technical systems to foster maturing activities by overcoming typical barriers. But so far, the theory has been mainly based on anecdotal evidence collected from various projects and observations. In this paper, we want to present the results of a qualitative and quantitative study of Wikipedia with respect to maturing phenomena, identifying instruments and measures indicating maturity. The findings, generalized to enterprise wikis, open the perspective on what promotes maturing on a method level and what can be used to spot maturing processes on a technology level.Thu Sep 13 13:59:08 CEST 2007Micromedia and Corporate Learning.

However, they aim at knowledge of different degrees of maturity. Central hypothesis of this paper is that the approaches can be integrated on the basis of a process that explicitly aims at designing the transitions of knowledge along varying degrees of maturity. The knowledge maturing process is presented as a conceptual model for explaining and analyzing disruptions in the inter-individual flow of knowledge within organizations. These disruptions can be attributed to a fragmented systems landscape and separated organizational units that foster knowledge of different degrees of maturity. The paper presents criteria for a characterization of this process model and discusses its implications for the design of learning support systems.Thu Sep 13 13:58:50 CEST 2007Berlin4th Conference Professional Knowledge Management - Experiences and Visions (WM '07), Potsdam, Workshop on Learning Software Organizations (LSO 07)155-164Knowledge Maturing as a Process Model for Describing Software Reuse22007from:aschmidt software_engineering maturing fzi lang:en knowledge_maturing professional_learning aps ipe workshop Software reuse has become a major topic in software engineering since reusing artifacts has an important effect on the cost and quality of software products. Accordingly, understanding and managing the mechanisms of software reuse is important for every organization that develops software. In this paper we describe a knowledge maturing process in software engineering and use it to analyze two cases of reusable software artifacts. We argue that the "reusability" of a software artifact is not just an immanent property of the artifact itself, but depends on the "maturity" of the knowledge the artifact embodies. We show that the notion of knowledge maturing can serve as a useful lens for understanding reuse processes and suggest further investigations towards a more holistic concept of reusability.Thu Sep 13 13:58:42 CEST 2007Proceedings of the Workshop on Social and Collaborative Construction of Structured Knowledge at the 16th International World Wide Web Conference (WWW 07), Banff, CanadaOntology Maturing: a Collaborative Web 2.0 Approach to Ontology Engineering2007aps soboleo ontology_engineering folksonomy from:aschmidt fzi ipe ontologies ontology_maturing imagination maturing wissensnetz lang:en professional_learning Most of the current methodologies for building ontologies rely on specialized knowledge engineers.

But ontology engineering methods have so far neglected the early phase of ontology building where a conceptualization only exists rather informally and underlies continuous evolution through collaboration and interaction within the community. We have to view ontology building as a maturing process that requires collaborative editing support and the integration into the daily work processes of knowledge workers. In spirit of current Web 2.0 applications, we present an AJAX-based lightweight ontology editor as a first approach to this problem.Thu Sep 13 13:58:22 CEST 2007Proceedings of I-KNOW 05, Graz, AustriaKnowledge Maturing and the Continuity of Context as a Unifying Concept for Knowledge Management and E-Learning2005process professional_learning elearning aps conference from:aschmidt maturing context lang:en ipe knowledge_maturing fzi km Although both e-learning and knowledge management are about facilitating learning in organization, the major obstacle to bring both of them together can be traced back to different paradigms of learning, resulting from the different nature of the knowledge they are dealing with. In this paper, a knowledge maturing process is presented to illustrate the change of nature and the discontinuities. This lays the foundation for a better understanding. In order to overcome the discontinuities, the consideration of context is proposed, which offers the required continuity.Thu Sep 13 13:58:13 CEST 2007eLearning Papers1The Personal Learning Environments - the future of eLearning?22007ple from:aschmidt professional_learning elearning Thu Sep 13 13:57:57 CEST 2007Pontybridd/BremenSeries navremeSearching, Lurking, and the Zone of Proximal Development. e-learning in small and medium enterprises in Europe52007professional_learning informal_learning elearning from:aschmidt Perhaps the most important question is the relationship between education and training systems and informal learning. There is currently much attention paid to informal learning at a policy level. As such the concern is to develop an exchange value to learning which at present is seen only as having use value. A better approach might be to recognise the use value of informal learning through profiling learning in non-constrained (e)-portfolios. Such an approach would provide a major move to learner driven learning where all learning is valid rather than only recognising that learning supported by qualification frameworks.
