Pilot Cooperative System in Sustaining Project Management Activities

The convergence of the tendencies evolving on the technology and education realm is representing by the fusion of the activities implied in knowledge management, learning and performance. The subject of our work is to design a system that allows groups to collaborate over computer networks. Our implemented pilot system is an e-learning collaborative tool for assisting stakeholders in project management activities. Diverse usage scenarios of the system are also depicted. The functional software modules are: virtual meeting forum, classifier and organizer texts module, social proxy module, retrieving information service module, user profile module and sharing files module. The social proxy module has the role of mutual awareness and responsibility. Software modules integration in the collaborative learning system is facilitated by the XML technology. Designing our pilot cooperative e-learning system takes into account the flexibility and scalability features of the knowledge management system architecture, allowing integrating new elements later. KM is seen as a cyclic process of the three correlated activities: creating, integrating and dissemination of knowledge. 1
