- Strategic alignment of knowledge management systemsPublication . Claudio, Marta; Santos, ArnaldoManaging company knowledge and using it effectively is more than ever a strong competitive advantage in the business world. The scientific area of knowledge management and knowledge management systems have been intensively studied in the last years; however, we still see the unstructured implementation of knowledge management systems in organizations, the misalignment of knowledge management systems from the business model and the frustration non-use, lack of systems integration and/ or non-return on investment made either in technology or spent on heavy implementation processes. The state-of-the-art conducted during this study, showed that most knowledge management systems alignment models in the business context have a strong focus on the organizational dimension, e.g., culture, organizational processes, organizational structure, and leadership, having been identified only three models that also cover, simultaneous, the technological and strategic dimension. Our final objective in this study is, following the research survey methodology, to develop a proposed framework for the strategic alignment of knowledge management systems that can support company managers in their decision-making, and to contribute to the development of scientific knowledge in this area.
- Learning analytics framework applied to training context: a systematic literature reviewPublication . Dias, João; Santos, ArnaldoCurrently, business organizations are struggling with the increasing demand for learning needs to address their knowledge gaps. They must have a structure that can reach all employees in terms of training and extract all the important data which is collected by Learning Management Systems during the instruction or learning process. This data will be of extreme importance for better business decisions. In this paper, it is presented a Systematic Literature Review with their respective phases duly explained and framed in the topic. It allowed us to understand the benefits, challenges, enablers, and inhibitors of the deployment and usage of a specified Teaching- Learning Analytics Framework. Finally, it is concluded, that the development of a reference model, could fulfill this gap in knowledge and help business organizations to allocate resources better and improve the decision-making process as well as an instructional and learning process. To achieve the final goal of this research, future work about the development of a Survey Research methodology will be started to fulfill this gap of knowledge.
- The impact of artificial intelligence on a learning management system in a higher education context: a position paperPublication . Santos, Arnaldo; Manhiça, Ruben; Cravino, JoséThis position paper provides an overview of the most important practices in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) used in educational contexts, with a focus on the main platforms used for teaching (LMS) to support the development of a research work at EduardoMondlane University (UEM) in Mozambique. To that end, definitions and descriptions of relevant terms, a brief historical overview of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education and an overview of the common goals and practices of using computational methods in educational contexts are provided. The state of the art regarding the adaptation and use of Artificial Intelligence is presented and we discuss the potential benefits and the open challenges. The paper also presents the methodology and key steps which will be developed at UEM to achieve the research goals.
- An initial framework for adaptive serious games based on a systematic literature reviewPublication . Pistono, Alvaro; Santos, Arnaldo; Baptista, RicardoSerious Games have been used in professional training to increase employee engagement and improve the results of training initiatives. This work intends to investigate the influence of game elements, in adaptable Serious Games, according to the users' interactions, on the increase of engagement in the game itself and, as the main goal, on the learning results and the transfer of the acquired knowledge and practised skills to the daily work activities. Using the Design Science Research - DSR methodology, this study aims to develop a framework for the development and evaluation of Serious Games to improve the user experience, the learning outcomes, the transfer of knowledge to work situations, and the application of the skills practised in the game in real professional scenarios. This paper presents an initial Framework for Adaptive Serious Games derived from a systematic literature review. The next steps in this investigation are pointed out following the DSR methodology.
- Adaptation and personalization of learning management system, oriented to employees’ role in enterprise context: literature reviewPublication .

- A qualificação do ensino português no estrangeiro: o contributo do QuaREPEPublication . Silva, Mário Filipe daMais do que discorrer sobre a obra seria escrever sobre ela através da apresentação de um caso concreto de política de língua e de gestão linguística que, na minha perspetiva, contribuísse, não só para ilustrar o seu relevante trabalho académico de que muitos beneficiaram e entre os quais me encontro, mas que, neste breve texto, desse conta de um dos aspetos de investigação e publicações a que Maria José Grosso se dedicou de forma singular: a difusão da língua portuguesa.
- A systematic literature review on the learning technologies implemented in organizationsPublication . Ferreira, Helena; Santos, ArnaldoThe performance and survival challenges faced by many organizations require dynamic capabilities and tools to accelerate the acquisition of those capabilities. Organizations are continuously looking at their learning strategies as a key factor to prepare their human capital for the rapid changes and demands. Learning Technologies are positioned as an enabler that provides different opportunities to learn and that is why they are so important. The design of strategies for the implementation of learning technologies in organizations is hard to be overviewed. Only a few contributions address technology as a crucial point to accelerating performance, innovation, and competitiveness. In this research, we will focus on the strategic implementation of learning technologies. The approach we chose to solve this problem is to develop guidelines that support the strategy for the implementation of technology in the learning field. This approach will allow us to relate the strategy with the challenges faced and the impact that the organization is expected to achieve.
