This presentation discusses our approach to competence development where learners can have on-demand access to competences by taking part in a currency-free competence exchange scheme. The idea here is to integrate competence management features within a collaborative social media platform. Our approach consists in providing new incentives to learners by making them aware that their own competences can be useful for others and vice-versa. Learners can thus turn into timely providers of their own skills by giving coaching sessions in exchange of reusable credits. Our goal is to go beyond spontaneous assistance between peer learners and to foster the emergence of self-driven communities of competence exchanges. To achieve this, we extended Graaasp, an Opensocial-based container that allows users to organize their collaborative work through web spaces and supports context-aware recommendations. Thanks to this tool and our extension, learners can make discoverable or find competences, arrange informal teaching sessions and get reusable credits in return, all this in a continuous and context-centered environment.

Hinweis der Redaktion
- Learners can also be seen as competence providers themselves Formal competence dev. is needed but sometimes not agile enough. Informal exchanges are neither recorded nor formally encouraged and remain within the limits of small acquaintance groups.
- LETS (Local Exchange and Trading Systems [5]): communities where members can trade skills, in the form of services, in a multilateral way and in exchange of credit units

- ECU as a community currency, BUT how do we ensure DURABILITY ? credit networks (=decentralized currencies) offer an alternative to centraly maintained currencies (be they community or national currencies) Explanation of credit Network from Arpita Ghosh et al., Mechanism Design on Trust Networks << Currencies can in fact operate as abstract IOUs ("I Owe YOU"), or obligations. (examples :) Modern currencies are issued in the form of abstract obligations to provide value of some form, be it banks’ obligations to redeem account balances for government notes, governments’ obligations to redeem those notes as credit toward taxes due, or e-gold’s obligations to store gold in trust for account holders. A decision to accept a certain currency1 is a decision to trust the issuer to fulfill its obligations. ex: From this perspective, a loan repayment agreement is currency issued by the borrower and accepted by the lender. Payment is the transfer of obligations from one entity, the payer, to another, the recipient, in a form the recipient will accept. In other words, to make payment, the payer must present obligations from a currency issuer that is trusted by the recipient. The payer is faced with the problem of how to route the payment: how to convert obligations that it holds or can readily obtain (for example, via a line of credit) into obligations from an issuer that the recipient considers trustworthy. This routing takes place in a trust network. The most ubiquitous routable financial trust network is the banking system. At the national level this is essentially a tree, with the central bank at the root, regular banks as children of the central bank, and bank customers as the leaves. This arrangement makes it feasible to route payments manually, since there is only one path between any two nodes in a tree.>>
