3. Author: Gilbert Paquette Reuse freely – Just quote Requirements of the Knowledge Society LifeLong Learning: Do we have flexible, adaptive learning systems, inside and outside public education system, before, after and during work? Huge demand for Web-based resources for work and learning – Is the Learning Object Paradigm useful, usable? Knowledge Management in organizations means knowledge extraction and acquisition (learning) – Do we have Educational Modeling Languages to support it ? The Web itself is becoming insufficient to support intelligent information requests. How could a new web generation help solve the information overload and learning problems?
