Integration of Web Services with E-Learning for Knowledge Society

Abstract The study aims of creating a knowledge society (KS) through e-learning (EL) with the support of web services. EL system with its elements is the matter of discussion at the beginning of the study. For effective EL system, integration of web services with EL system is essential which is emphasized in the paper. Web 2.0 services such as blogs promote the content creation, assessment and evaluation, wikis makes the user enable of creating editable contents in the form of highly searchable knowledge-bases. Group work, Question & Answer (Q & A) sessions are performed by social networking and discussion forums. RSS feeds, Tags, Podcasts and Videocasts are considered as supporting services to speed up the knowledge management process. Web 3.0 services can apply artificial intelligence (AI) technique to speed up the teaching/learning process. The integration is expected to create the KS and the global knowledge warehouse
