Abstract

Edu-AREA is a Web 2.0 application whose main goal is to contribute to teaching innovation. It provides descriptions of educational resources and guidelines that can be used by teachers to create their lesson plans and later to document their teaching experiences. At the current stage of the Edu-AREA development, a main issue is related to the management and classification of information provided by users. This paper introduces a folksonomy approach, the architecture of the system, and the results of an experiment about keyword recommendations.
