Abstract

Human works can be assumed as a set of stratified processes, especially in the educational context. One of the possibilities for improving teaching and learning processes, and consequently, the knowledge flow, is to explore successful past experiences resulting from the modelling and execution of previous processes. This work presents Thoth, a web environment which aims at knowledge reuse, during the planning, design and execution of teaching and learning activities. This approach is integrated with a Case-based Reasoning (CBR) approach, also described in this paper, with workflow systems and the use of ontologies. In this paper we show some scenarios where this approach has been used.
