Semantic ontologies for a social network of competencies

In this paper we propose the integration of the FOAF ontology, used to model people and their personal contacts, with semantic ontologies related to student competencies. In particular, the use of ontologies and other semantic web technologies allows us to create relations between the evolution of student educational experiences and their social network. For this to happen, we integrate FOAF with the IMS Learning Information Package model in order to create a new Web 2.0 learning environment.
